shrimp and veggie stir fry Didn't take long at all! I just put a little evoo in a pan with some shrimp, tony's seasoning, caribbean jerk seasoning, and the last 10 minutes threw in some veggies.7

whole wheat bread or a wrap and deli roast beef, tuna or deli chicken breast, add low fat cheese.2

Quinoa salad. I keep cooked quinoa on hand in the fridge.3

Top a salad of baby spinach and arugula with tabbouleh and (if you've got it handy) shredded, boiled chicken breast, have a couple of pita crisps on the side (if you miss the crunch croutons provide). I usually wash that down with a glass of iced green tea with honey and lemon.2

I just completely satisfied myself with this:
half an avocado, drizzled with lime juice.
Half a large tomato, sliced, with a leaf of fresh basil from my front yard on each slice.
And my leftover strawberries, about 5 ounces, thrown into my Vitamix, along with half a cup of whole milk, a tiny bit of vanilla and about a tablespoon of honey. Blizted into a very quick, easy, delicious smoothie. (Another alternative, which I like a lot, is to hull the strawberries, whip a little cream, and combine the two).1 -

It's hot out but I wanted something fun so I grilled my salad. About 570 cals, 36 grams protein. Grilled zucchini, mushrooms, red onion with 2tbs. Olive oil and Italian spices and grilled Italian tofurkey sausage over a bed of spinach. Vegan, nutritious, full of summer

Grab yourself a rotisserie chicken from the store, shred it, and then use to top salads or turn into chicken salad. There's a great recipe for curried chicken salad that I just LOVE: http://www.kayotic.nl/blog/curried-chicken-salad

Leftovers-Bummer on the no-leftovers-for-lunch. That's how I make my lunches interesting. How about if you "served" the leftover first? Ya know, move it into the fridge before you sit down to eat dinner?
Today--leftover salmon & peas from dinner over a bed of romaine lettuce with salad dressing. I purposely always cook enough salmon so I get it have it on a salad the next day. So yummy!
I also love Mexican on romaine lettuce with salsa instead of salad dressing. But if I make something specifically for lunch, it usually involves beans. Bean salad w/ homemade vinaigrette sauce, black beans & avocado, etc.2
