Subject: RE: Lunch Food ideas I've got two basic lunches: One is a salad. Usually mixed greens or romaine, chopped veggies, usually feta cheese; often olives and/or artichoke hearts. My favorite dressing is 1 part olive oil, 2 parts balsamic vinegar, 2 parts tomato juice, and just a bit of dijon mustard. For convenience I usually chop a 2-3 days worth of salad veggies at once. Radishes, onion, cucumber, celery, and colored peppers. I also keep shredded carrots around. The other one is kind of a flip burrito. Spray a bit of cooking spray into a hot pan and throw in a whole wheat tortilla. When it's browned, flip it and sprinkle with cheese. Fat free refried beans on one side, onions and jalapenos, bit of taco seasoning. Flip the "empty" side over on top of the side with the beans and stuff. If you need more protein, you can throw some chicken or fish in to either one of these. Edited by alath 2011-01-15 1:15 PM
