I am getting ready to go low carb (not no carb) and need help with easy snack and lunch ideas to take to work. I am fairly picky and I'm struggling coming up with ideas of what to eat so that I'm not eating the same thing everyday. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!!

    Chicken salad for lunch is one of my favs. I fix a small can of chicken with light mayo and relish and it's only about 200 calories. Then I pack shredded lettuce on the side and eat the lettuce with the chicken salad instead of bread. It's not too bad.

    I like green leafy salads with lots of different toppings, from sliced meats/fish/fowl and eggs to grated cheese to beans

    I make a real easy lunch chili on Sunday for the week

    1 small can V8
    1 can chili tomatoes
    1 can black beans
    1 can corn and green peppers
    cummin and chilli powder as needed to spice it up

    I put this all in a big pot on the stove and let it simmer about 10-15 min. Then scoop it into four containers, two stay in the fridge and two go in the freezer for letter in the week.

    I have also added meat to the recipe. For example we had left over chicken taco meat last week and I put it in the chilli when I warmed it.
