Here's my current favorite:

Don Lee veggie patty (the vegan superfood one)
a cup of arugula or so
a handful of mixed nuts
a handful of cherry tomatoes
a handful of cello crisps (the little baked parmesan cheese things-which are BACK at costco)
a bit of avocado
Eaten with my hands.

What's your strangest favorite "meal" these days?

    I realized yesterday I would be in the movie theater around when I would eat lunch so I packed some nitrate-free salami slices, an ounce of macadamia nuts, and a Kerrygold buttered slice of almond meal bread to eat as "snacks" during the movie, LOL. I was happy as could be! No popcorn or Twizzlers for me :smiley:

    About 20 minutes ago I cracked 2 eggs in a shallow bowl and microwaved them for a minute then added 2 oz of cream cheese and gave it another 30 seconds for an early supper. I've been doing that a lot lately but it usually lunch.

    I found cauliflower on sale for only $1.99 today so I bought another one and needed to figure out how to get it into hubby as it's not a favorite. Luckily had onion, cremini mushrooms, and a couple baby carrots for colour. Stirfry in coconut oil, throw in some Frank's hot sauce, Bragg's Aminos, and almond butter with a splash of lime juice for Thai flavours and threw it over leftover wild rice (for him, mine w/o) followed by dessert of stewed rhubarb from the garden topped with chopped pecans.

    Not that weird, I guess, but I'm still planning more cauliflower.... I'm sure there will be a complaint coming soon, lol.
    Oops, forgot to mention the chicken breast chunks in the Thai mix.

    Sometimes for lunch I have garlic dill pickle spears wrapped in ham. That's it, maybe a glass of tea.

    I don't know how strange mine are, but they can be kind of random if I'm in a hurry:

    * a Quest bar
    * a lunch meat and cheese roll-up (or for breakfast)
    * a spoonful of PB has legit been a meal for me at times (well, and I always have a coffee, usually with cream, as well)

    Of course, I do generally eat 4-5 times a day so on days I have smaller meals I make up for it later, especially now at maintenance.

    Lunch today was pork rinds with pimento cheese and some chunks of ham. Some people eat crackers with cheese and meat. I prefer to use pork rinds.

    When my schedule is demanding, I'll grab a hunk of ham, block of cheese, and a tomato and take bites off of them at lunch. Confuses the hell out of people when they watch me shrink.

    Pork rinds dipped in guacamole.

    Lox. You know, the thinly-sliced smoked salmon? Yeah. Just lox...with a fork. Yummm.

    Bacon and tomatoes.

    This is fun. :)

    I throw ground turkey in a pan with butter, then when it's fully cooked I add in some fresh raw spinach and let it wilt, add taco seasoning, add cheese and let it melt, and then serve with a little sour cream. This is such an easy go-to meal for me and is filling and delicious!

    I buy mine online - either from Jet.com or Amazon. Utz sells an 18 oz. barrel of pork rinds. It's much cheaper per serving than I've found it anywhere else.

    ETA - I should have read your post more carefully. I did not realize you were not in the US.

    You're in Austria. Austria has a record of high pork consumption. More than 2/3rds of all meat eaten there, is pork (see slide #7).

    Find a good butcher and ask him for pig skin. It's really easy from there!

    I work in a UK store that has a Food department. There's loads of Lo-fat (high sugar) stuff there too.
    But if you make your own stuff from scratch, you can make it the way you need it. Don't buy ready-made processed stuff. Buy fresh produce and get creative.

    There are countless recipes on-line, and we can help you too.

    I had bacon for dinner last night and one piece of cheese. I wasn't hungry but I knew I had to have something.

    Bar style hot-dog sausages (left) and Czech "Utopenci" (right) .... Made these about a half hour ago. Goodness, I have to wait a week now, while they 'pickle' but I made them loads of times and they're amazing!!
