Need Breakfast & Lunch Ideas

I would love to see what others have to say! I have the same problem!

With this list, I can eat ALL day long.

So breakfast, I will eat

Egg Whites 60 calories ½ cup or Sugar free maple oatmeal (100 calories) I mix the liquid egg whites with a laughing cow wedge (35 calories)

Thomas Bagel Thins (110 calories) with I can’t believe it’s not butter spray (husband calls it ghetto butter) zero calories and I use it for everything. Rice, mashed potatoes, cooking, you name it.
If you drink coffee, I use fat free half/half 20 calories for 2 tablespoons

For my cheese cravings, laughing cow wedges. They just came out with blue cheese, yum and many many other flavors. 35 calories per wedge

Lunch
Sara lee whole wheat pita (40 calories for a pocket as opposed to 100 calories for 1 slice of bread)
Deli Oscar Meyer Ham, Turkey all between 45-50 calories for 6 slices. I add lettuce and different mustards look at the calories. Most contain zero. Sometimes I take a laughing cow wedge and smear in the pita pocket
Left over dinner cut up and put in pita pocket
Single servings of albacore tuna fish, mix it with dijonaise mustard/mayo mix (look for the zero cal ones) and/or dill and lemon. There a salmon ones too (around 100 calories for each one)

Snacks
Dannon Activia Fat Free Yogurt 70 calories
Lipton powdered cup soups 50 -60 calories
Half a pita (40 cals) smear laughing cow (35 cal) or peanut butter (95 cal for 1 tablespoon) or hummus (40 cal for 1 tablespoon)
Sliced apples from Costco (6 oz bag 90 calories)
Bite size Round tortilla chips and salsa ( count it out and under 200 calories)
Reduced fat cheeze-its (I just count them out)
Reduced fat wheat thins (count them out) and use a wedge of Laughing cow cheese

Boca Products
Chicken Patty 160 calories
Boca Burger 70 calories
Orowheat sandwich thin bun 100 calories
Add lettuce, onion, tomatoes, sometimes mustard, sometimes a laughing cow wedge to make a cheeseburger.

Dinner
I eat a lot of salmon (any fish), chicken breast, then vegetables, then carbs last. I never go over a cup of rice (use jasmine unless you like brown, my family won’t eat brown I tried) and same with potatoes (Don’t eat the skin on baked) we use butter spray and salt and pepper.
Extra lean ground turkey; make burgers and meatballs.
Shrimp and Scallops are low in calories and tasty

I usually drink water, but for flavor Diet Arizona Iced tea. Super good and zero calories. For alcohol, red wine is 110 calories a glass. Diet Tonic, vodka and lime is 70 calories. Zero cal for diet tonic.

I agree with JennaMarie I often eat a homeade breakfast burrito

and as i had told another mfp member for lunch i usually have a chopped up hard boiled egg inside a wheat pita, and add some tomatoes and spinach for a little over 200 cals.. you could replace the egg with tuna for almost the same cals. . Also try mozzarella and tomato sandwiches. And another lunch i'm fond of is a couple slices of turkey with 1/4 a cup of cranberry sauce.

if you like seafood this is a seafood pita sandwich for 162 cals : http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Seafood-Salad-Pitas

i love questions like this....why is it that we have to eat "breakfast" foods for breakfast??? so many times people say they don't like eggs, what can i eat for breakfast.....the answer: ANYTHING. healthy food is healthy food.
i have been known to eat leftovers from the night before. at this time i tend to eat either an omelet with LOTS of veggies. but most days i have a Shakeology....the combination for this is endless. a great balanced meal when you add fruits/almond butter/soy or almond milk. it comes two flavors, so mixing and matching is awesome.

for lunch....homemade soups are awesome. canned are full of salt or msg. i have a great Turkey Chili that is packed with protein and veggies. (message me for the recipe) wraps can have tons of combination's...from all veggies to veggie to veggie and meat.

i like cold salmon with my salads. and cold mashed sweat potatoes are like dessert, but GREAT for you.

think outside the box...be creative. there are so many foods that are good for you and don't come in a box/bag.

I'm also trying to expand my breakfast Idea's. I also wind up eating in the car so it does limit me a bit.

slim fast (190 cal) and a piece of fruit

I buy the 1cup size plastic bowls in bulk from Sams Club. That let me know exactly what a cup was

I pack of instant oatmeal the kind varies (130-160 cal ) and I add organic flax seeds to it, and a piece of fruit of yogurt dannon (80 cal)

If I have time (which I usually don't) I'll do egg whites ( I started buying them in a container made it a lot easier), turkey bacon (35 cal a slice), healthy life wheat bread ( 35 calories a slice), 1tblspn grape jelly (50 cal). That goes with a few extra paper towels cause its going in the car as well.

Carnation breakfast essentials powder mix (130 cal) good source of vitamins and stuff with 1 cup almond milk ( 60 cal).

I swear by Genesis Today's Acai Berry juice mix @ Sams club.

Aldi has a terrific assortment of Fit & Active food from meal replacement bars, to 90 cal bars in different flavors, 100 calorie snacks, smoothie drink 70-80 calories, and lots more that are priced low and taste great.

Hope this helps.
