Today, it's Lipton's unsweetened iced tea in a bottle. I have the mix, too, so when this is gone, I will rinse the bottle w/vinegar, then hot water, then re-use.
I have a lot of ''staple" foods but probably the one I turn to most often is canned black beans. I always have at least 2 or 3 cans in the pantry. They are filling, versatile, cheap, and good for you. I've used them to make veggie buritos, black bean soup, beans and rice, just plain old black beans as a side dish, toss them in homemade salsa, etc. The options are endless!
Thanks Invidia. I've used this name for a while in various places and you're the first to recognize what it was. (or at least the first to know and to comment)
I think I read about it here, but Laughing Cow Light is some great stuff....one wedge spreads forever (2.5 grams of fat and 35 calories)...I love sun-dried tomatoes (bought dried in produce section) and spread the cheese on them....I figure it's a better option than the chips that are in the office...
Animal Crackers! They don't have very many calories and they're very satisfying when I just HAVE to eat something...and Wal-Mart sells two-pound bags of them for $1.29!
