I made the simplest, laziest black bean soup for lunch. 2 cans of black beans (not drained), a jar of salsa (or can of diced tomatoes) and a cup of broth or water.

For b’fast this week I have been having a light whole grain English muffin, Turkey b’fast sausage patty and American cheese sandwich. It’s easy to eat on the run and is filling enough for me.

Crockpot Salisbury steak, green beans & mashed potatoes

A cheese stick (right now I’m loving pepper jack) with a whole grain cracker or two. Pistachios. A slice or two of ham wrapped around a pretzel stick or bread stick with mustard. Granola (there’s some lower sugar options) and yogurt.

I really dislike artificial sweeteners. I use light agave syrup in my coffee, I find I use less of it then I would sugar in my coffee.
