Filling low cal lunch ideas

You can make soup and sandwiches ahead of time for lunches.

Typically I bring last nights dinner for lunch.

Try that chicken chili taco recipe I posted. It seriously makes enough for probably 10 meals if you break them up. I had it for dinner and lunch and today it was actually better. I also buy a big huge pack of boneless skinless chicken breasts and bake them all on Sunday. I dice them up and stick them all in the fridge. Really easy to add to anything I am eating and makes it so I always have something healthy to eat. If I run out of good food............I always reach for the bad!

Just in case you weren't aware of this feature, when you go to the message boards section, there is a button called search and you can type in a keyword/phrase (ex: lunch, low cal lunch) and you can see the threads that have already been created on the topic. Good luck! :flowerforyou:

I like making a big batch of turkey chili, or chicken noodle soup.

Its 204 calories for 1 1/4 cups and then I add 3/4 of a cup of brown rice which is 150 calories...so roughly 350 for a huge pile of food

I usually have frozen fish (cod is great and takes min to cook) bag of steam fresh veggies takes about as long as fish does, this week I tried acorn squash and eat that for 3 days w/ my fish and other veggies, just the fish and veggies are only about 200 cals. Acorn added another 140 cals (made w/ brown sugar)

Also, I eat boiled shrimp with veggies quick and easy

Chicken breast and a ton of veggies.
