As I sit here on my lunch break munching on cottage cheese and steamed asparagus and surfing MFP for inspiration I wonder... What are you having for lunch?
Happy Monday!

Tuna salad (Tuna, lettuce, corn, tomato, lemon and green pepper) Yayyy.0

It is already warm here, so salad!
About 1.5 cups baby field greens
some cut up cauliflower and red pepper
4 olives
1 oz. feta cheese
(the above is my default salad base)
today, I have about 3oz. leftover salmon as the protein; tomorrow it will be hard boiled eggs.
No dressing - the olives, cheese and salmon add enough flavor and healthy fats.
My partner can eat this salad everyday, usually with turkey lunch meat.0 -
lean turkey burger with romaine lettuce leaves as the "bun" and sweet potatoe fries0

probably salmon nigiri and cucumber rolls0 -
taco salad (no shell)
First - thanks for the topic, I too am looking for some lunch time inspiration. Last week I had reduced sodium turkey with low fat swiss all week which worked great for my nutritional anc calloric needs but I'm board with it now.
Taco salad! Thanks for the reminder of this tasty lunch dish - I'm now going to make taco salad this week with ground turkey, tomatoes, black beans, corn, reduced fat cheese and a lime vinegrette (no chips). Great inspiriation.
I also made some great baked beans with no added fat and love lentil salad with French green lentils. I'm usually pretty creative with my lunches. I cook a lot and enjoy it. Marinated beet salad, vegetable soups with homemade low fat and low sodium chicken broth, wild rice or barley. If I could find a low sodium ham, I love ham, swiss and arugula in 1/2 a pita with lowfat mayo and dijon.
Can't wait to hear the other creative ideas.0 -

Maditerranean Salad with Pickpea patties
Salad:
about 2 cups mixed greens
handful of grape tomatoes
one slice red onion
Dressing:
Fat Free Chobani plain yogurt
fresh squeezed lemon juice
salt and pepper
Chickpea Patties:
1 can chickpeas
some parsley
cumin, salt, pepper
dusted with flour
browned in a skillet with a touch of EVOO
(My chickpea patties got squished on the way to work though, so it's more like chickpea crumbles.)0 -

Turkey bacon, salami, and ham in a lettuce wrap (no bun) with mayonnaise. Not sure what else yet, lol.
About 285 calories, 18 grams of fat, 21 grams of protein, and 6 grams of carbs. I'm mainly tracking carbs, somewhat tracking calories.0
