I am gluten free and not a fan of the GF bread (for how expensive it is - it should taste better!! ha) so I love tuna with dijon on Corn Thins.
Another staple for me is a hardboiled egg, corn thin with fresh almond butter and an apple.
My favorite recently for me has been a salad of quinoa, cucumber, tomato and onion with lite italian dressing. LOVE quinoa in salads!

I eat a sammich. Open faced toasted Orowheat sammy thins, mustard, onion, raw spinach two slices of coscto sliced turkey. 5 Grape tomatoes and a little pickle spear. 235 calories. If I am needing some fat I add an ounce of goat cheese (80 calories).

Not every day, but most days.

One of my go to lunches is 1 slice of super whole grain bread (for 100-110 cals), with a serving of natural peanut butter (200 cals for 2 tbsp) and a serving of wheat germ sprinkled on top (50 cals for 2 tbsp) for a total of 350 calories with good protein to fill me up. Sometimes I'll cut it to 1 tbsp of peanut butter to save calories, especially if I have something high calorie planned for dinner.

I've always really enjoyed salads, but I try to change up what I put on them. Okay, that's not really true, I usually have chicken, but I change the way I prepare it. If I'm on my game, I'll prep enough chicken for the week on a Sunday- sometimes in a crockpot with buffalo sauce, sometimes I'll make chicken salad with grapes and put it on my salad. I look forward to it every day.

When I'm lazy, haven't gone grocery shopping, or am in a rush, sometimes I bring frozen meals- but they're never as satisfying.

Also, my lunch is light-ish because I have other snacks in the morning and afternoon.

Default Lunch Ideas

Hey guys, I'm lucky I can eat at my desk so I try and eat small snacks every three hours to keep my metabolism going. I bring salad, strawberries, yogurt with fresh fruit and granola. I try and stay away from bread and make wraps instead. I also try and stay away from deli meats so I shred fresh leftover chicken instead
