Just wondering if anyone has any quick and healthy lunch ideas they want to share. We don't have much in the house right now, I usually make a nice meal for supper...just wanted to see if you have any quick and easy ideas for lunches
I'll be having some veggies, most likely cucumber and baby carrots, an apple, some rice cakes (can't decide between the caramel and cheddar ones), and some cheese. Pretty much a bunch of random cooking-free stuff from the fridge.
I do a lot of wraps lately.. flat out wrap with boars head honey maple turkey and american cheese.. lettuce, tomato, pickles and 1 tbsp. full fat italian dressing. Yum-o. I also like just the turkey rolled up with the cheese with no wrap and some cut up fruit.
Ramen Noodles. I know, I know... not a good choice. But it sustains me. I make it by boiling the noodles and draining out all the liquid (and with it, hopefully, draining out some of the fat, too) and adding just a quarter or lesser of the spice packet, cutting down on the sodium. There's always a lot, anyway. Then I add some veggies. I do add that into my daily calorie intake so it's all good.
Today I had a whole wheat pita with a garlic/herb laughing cow cheese wedge, yellow and red peppers, and sliced cucumber on it. That and an apple and of course my diet coke Super tasty.
I have started eating lighter lunches because I always want an afternoon snack no matter how much I eat at lunch.
Whole wheat/low carb/high protein La Tortilla Factory Rosemary wrap - fill with deli turkey or roast beef, a laughing cow wedge, and veggies. Roll and serve with fruit on the side...mmm.

I apologize for my ignorance, but what is a "laughing cow wedge"?
I had egg salad (1 whole egg, 2 egg whites, 1 T lite mayo, 1t dijon mustard) over 2 cups of mixed greens....it was so yummy and filling and only about 180 calories....
