    I don't know if you watch sodium but I just got these little pizzas from trader joes only 320 calories with eggplant, zuchinni, very yummy. Or fish (like alaskan cod) and peas

    I eat leftovers of whatever I made the night before! It works out great because I get sick of sandwiches or salads, too, and nothing goes to waste!

    I make a big batch of soup and freeze individual servings and thaw them out every night as needed. I don't have a problem eating the same meal at lunch all week long 5 days in a row.

    Low-carb tortilla with turkey, Jarlsberg cheese, fresh spinach, and dijon.

    Quinoa with roasted veggies and dressed with fat-free balsamic vinaigrette.

    Quinoa with lime juice, shrimp, cilantro, and ???

    Ceviche, I buy it at the Safeway meat deli pre-made: shrimp, cucumber, onion, a bit of jalapeno, imitation crab meat, and tomatoes, all chopped together. Really delish and low calorie!

    Olive Tapenade with your choice of low-cal crackers, or if going low-carb, put it on cucumber slices.

    Tomorrow, I'm taking chick pea salad. Its easy to make and a refreshing change. I also take leftovers from the meal the night before, or if I don't have any and don't feel like I salad, I make a veggie wrap.

    Egg salad with low sodium crackers or veggie tray with dip or a nice bowl of homemade soup.

    i am a sandwich lover so i get my variety by what i put onto Nature's Own multi-grain sandwich rounds (bread that is only 100 calories per sandwich is my version of heaven). i love ham and tomato, blt, tuna salad, egg salad, chicken salad. add a piece of fruit and a small handfull (about 10) potato chips on the side, and i never feel like i am on a diet.

    I LOVE hummus and veggies in a whole wheat pita. I have a yogurt and piece of fruit with it. I switch up the hummus flavor and veggies throughout the week. Sometimes I use bagel thins instead of pitas as well. I also have leftovers from dinner the night before on occasion.

    Hummus and veggies are great. I do like a little carb to get me through the day and find Trader Joe's mini whole wheat pitas to fill the bill. I make tuna or chicken filling for them, tomato, avocado. I use the "cauliflower alfredo" that someone else posted as a soup vs a sauce, added fake crab and cooked broccoli, filling and delicious!
