I can't give 5 for each. every morning I eat the same exact thing. Some lunches I eat dinner leftovers. Here goes

Think Thin Protein Bar (either Peeanut Butter or Brownie Crunch)

Usually a Morningstar veggie patty, Sargento Light Cheesestick, either grapes, apple or veggie mix

1. Salad with a lean protein (grilled chicken, ground turkey)
2. Dr. Oz YOU on a Diet Chili
3. Chinese Chicken Spinach Salad
4. Lean beef patty, broccolli, black eyed peas

I don't make a habit of having a snack... but, every once in a while expecially when I have an evening work out I have a little something:
1. 1/2 apple and T peanut butter
2. Grapes
3. Mandarin oranges

[Rochester]

I'm doing a low carb plan - less than 100g or 25% per day.

Breakfast
One of these:
~Eggs (fried, scrambled, poached, hard cooked) and homemade turkey sausage (seasoned ground turkey breast)
~Egg Bake (eggs, ham, veggies, cheese)
~Omelette with turkey breast, broccoli, and cheese
~Eggs scrambled with cottage cheese, Kalamata olives, and bell peppers
With some combination of these:
~Fruit
~Greek yogurt w/honey and walnuts
~Cottage cheese and pineapple
~Chocolate soy milk w/protein powder
~Steel cut oats
~English muffin (1/2)
~Cinnamon raisin toast

The basic breakfast idea is protein and fruit, with a grain carb added if it works with the numbers for the day.

Lunch
~Salad (leaf lettuce, cherry tomatoes, carrots, cucumbers, bell peppers) topped with one of the following:
Lunch meat (Hormel Natural Choice)
Tuna (one can)
Chicken breast
Chicken salad (chicken breast, yogurt, celery, walnuts)
and 1 tablespoon of dressing
~Fruit

The lunch plan is protein, veggies, and fruit.

Dinner
~Some kind of meat (chicken, turkey, ground turkey, fish, red meat, pork) that I do something to.
~And some kind of veggie or two.

Dinner is protein and veggies.

I rarely do snacks.
