I really like these posts :) I have class until 12:15 and then I have to be at my kiddo's school, she's giving a presentation at 1, and then I feed some feral kitties on Wednesday's so, I won't be eating lunch until way late today! I'm thinking of having some soup and maybe a turkey sandwich and a piece of fruit.

Whatcha having today?

    Veggie soup with a sandwich (light, full fiber english muffin, turkey, cheese, tomato, onion, olive oil mayo-very little). Then I have to head out to our new place and wait for the stove to be delivered.

    Schwan's Garden Vegetable Omelet, asparagus, and roasted sweet potatoes. That is a delicious lunch!

    I've just had a bowl of beef and mushroom soup with a nice ciabatta roll :) There were more calories in the roll than the soup!

    I made a white chicken chili in the crock-pot last night and am making burritos with the leftovers for lunch. I use the Wrap-Itz Low Carb wheat tortillas and it turns out really yummy. The chili has 245 calories per cup (1 serving) and that makes 2 burritos. The tortillas each have 70 calories. So good and filling and LOTS of protein. Total 385 clories.

    Leftovers!

    I made a few pans of this Chicken & Veggie Pasta Bake the other night. Just kinda threw it together, and although it's a bit higher in calories than I'd liiiike but it's pretty nummy. If anyone wants the recipe, send me a message. Like I said, just kinda threw it together.

    i had whole wheat spaghetti with red sauce and steamed broccoli. ...eating meatless today. will have protein, just not in the meat forms, allowing for more volume/calories through fruits and veggies. i attempt this once a week for a leaner eating day.

    Had a giant turkey sandwich with a pile of lettuce, provolone, a tiny bit of light mayo, brown mustard, all on a sandwich thin. I'm still thinking about it. 300 calories with lots of flavor and crunch.

    I was bad today and had a Wendy's chicken sandwich. But I substituted the fries for a side salad and I'll make up for it by having a healthy dinner. Probably whole wheat pasta with V8 and oregano. It's one of my all time favorite meals, I've been eating it since I was a kid!

    I'm working on perfecting a recipe to replicate the Kashi brand "Southwest Chicken" frozen entree. I tried it once way back, love it, and decided to make it myself because surely it could be tasty with less sodium. I made a big batch and froze it into portions. This one, alas, is the last of it. Haven't perfected the recipe yet, but now that it's gone, I can give it another go.

    I'm having a rice & chicken burrito w/salsa,no cheese. It's leftover's from last nights dinner. Since lunch is my main meal at this point I can have 2 & still have plenty enough calories left for dinner.
    Everybody's meals sounded so good!!

    WEdnesday is my favorite day! I do a double workout then hit Sam's and the grocery store. My reward is my once a week sushi fix. I get brown rice California rolls and boy are they yummy! Good thing I'm not tracking (or worried about )sodium!

    Once you "perfect it" be sure to share it, sounds yummy!
