All you gluten free people! What do you eat for lunch?

My diary is open if you want. I eat salads a lot but also have sandwiches, pizza, all kinds of things

I generally will bring some meat I've cut up (grass fed beef, pork or chicken), some veggies, a paleo pumpkin pie (I make this from scratch, with a nut crust- not very sweet, so awesome!) or fruit. Or salad with meat. I always have protein of some sort though. I only bring yogurt if I've forgotten to go grocery shopping.

Soup! Yum! Turkey Gumbo with okra & rice, Thick Veggie Soup with glazed veggies, Chicken sauteed with Artichokes and mushrooms on rice or potato, salisbury steak patties with gravy on mashed potatoes and cauliflower. I cook one good meal on the weekend to take to work the rest of the week. Sushi! gluten free wraps make good sandwich holders so I can have roastbeef & turkey and avocado. I am gluten free and dairy free, and finding my health is coming back. Now it is time to get my portions under control.

While I eat a lot of salads topped with protein, I make roll ups using Whole Foods' Spinach gluten free tortillas. I just let my imagination go wild with what goes into them. In the winter I make a thick soup and carry it in a thermos or heat it up if there is a microwave wherever I'm going. There are lots of gluten free breads out there. My favorite for sandwiches is Whole Food's tomato (and basil?). I don't buy much at WF since it is so expensive, but every month I stock up on their GF breads. Try their cinnamon bread for breakfast.

Rice cakes, laughing cow cheese, turkey, fruit, carrots...

Today was half a rotisserie chicken and an unsweetened iced tea. Sometimes a salad. Another idea is tuna salad in a hollowed out tomato. I have a shop near my work that makes buffalo chicken salad and I will get a container of that and drink a half bottle of Kombucha with it.

My diary is open too; but sometimes I end up eating a piece of bread b/c I was at a restaurant or the grocery was out of my gf bread.

I have salad a lot b/c I like to have raw veg, but I also have a vegetarian burger on one slice of gf bread or maybe an open faced sandwich on gf bread; I also make soups like butternut squash, turkey chili, black bean soup and will have that with a side salad and skip the bread.

Since right before Thanksgiving I've been pretty bad; it stinks when our grocery doesn't have the gf bread. :frown: I ordered some from Julian bakery but it was so dry I nearly choked to death; so that didn't work out.

I typically have an Isagenix shake (the packets are really handy for work) or a Isagenix bar but occasionally a salad with chicken or an Amy's Natural GF frozen meal. Lunch is typically a utilitarian affair for me - the shakes are my favorite because they are very filling and I can handle conference calls and other things while eating without any mess or fuss.

When I could eat corn -- Mexican food. Anything with corn totillas. Now, salad, salad, and more salad, but I love salad I also like sushi now and then. If I'm busy I might just eat a cliff bar and an apple or something.
