I'm getting tired of eggs for breakfast and carrots for my snacks. What are some of your must haves? I need some new food ideas fast!

    So here is what I do for breakfast and snacks. I am focusing on getting enough protein, so I included that in my notes. I try to keep my snacks to about 200 calories. Lunch and dinner are at about 400.

    cheerios and milk (200 cal; 10g protein)
    banana and hard boiled egg (160 cal; 7g protein)
    peach and cheddar (180 cal; 8g protein)
    cucumber tomato salad and cottage cheese (170 cal; 12g protein)
    chobani flip (180-250 cal depending; 12g protein)

    Edit: Just wanted to say that I just bought all these things for 5 days worth of food and some stuff for dinner (already had lunches covered) and it came in under $35.

    We do. Some people use the real cards (though the last one I saw posted is fairly out of date) and others use imaginary cards that they make up. But it's definitely a thing.

    Of course we do! :)

    I wish I could add to the list, OP, but anything I eat as a snack has already been said. At least the healthy stuff. :I
