Anyone have any suggestions for healthy, cold lunches? (No lunchmeat - can't stand it)

    For my lunch I usually do a flatbread wrap. You can get pre-cooked grilled chicken strips in the meat section of the store and I throw that in the flatbread with some cheese and salsa. Great for an energy boost!! Very low cal too!

    Hummus, tomato and alfalfa sprout sandwich; if I don't have alfalfa sprouts, I'll use any type of lettuce. It's best to assemble this sandwich just before eating otherwise it gets soggy.

    i am a huge fan of salad, so what about spinach salad, with tomatoes and cucumbers, maybe an egg, with light dressing ?

    My new favorite is a La Tortilla Company soft wheat wrap, lettuce, tomato, sprouts & an avacado. Only 378 calories and very filling. You could even do just 1/2 of an avacado and still be full.

    Just so we're all on the same page -- when Americans talk about "sprouts" in their sandwiches, they usually mean alfalfa or broccoli sprouts, NOT Brussels sprouts.

    I'm looking forward to more ideas, too... I'll need to pack a lunch for an upcoming plane trip.
