wrote: Name your favorites "on the run" lunches Well, if "on the run" means I'm driving the car, it would be an energy bar, nuts, hard-boiled eggs, or a sandwich. When I used to go to work, lunch was usually a large salad (from grocery store salad bar) with added meat or fish. If I'm stopping at a restaurant to pick up something, my typical choices are Subway small roast beef (no cheese, mustard rather than mayo), Panera tuna sandwich, Chic-Fil-A grilled chicken sandwich. Name your favorite "I've got time" lunch Not that it takes a lot of time, but lately it's my turkey burgers :-). Chris 262/130s/130s started dieting July 2002, maintaining since June 2004 |

Then it's either our favorite Chinese restaurant, or Ithaca's famous Collegetown Bagels for a sandwich or soup. I usually opt for the soup and one of their fresh tuscan rolls. Mmmm.

"determined" wrote in message news Name your favorites "on the run" lunches On the run: Fat free vanilla yogurt and frozen raspberries with a few almonds (or some Kashi cereal) sprinkled on top. Name your favorite "I've got time" lunch I've got time: Rice, Black Bean and Corn Salad over spinach or lettuce leaves. Here's the recipe from the WW New Complete Cookbook. Amounts are subjects to your taste. Combine cooked brown rice, corn kernels, chopped bell pepper, chopped celery, cooked black beans, finely chopped red onion, finely chopped cilantro and a minced jalapeno pepper. Add red-wine or balsamic vinegar, fresh lime juice and a little olive oil. If you make a big batch, the lime juice will help it taste fresh and crunchy for several days. -- Take care, eddiegirl 136/130 |

One of my favorites is the Peppery Bean Salad from one of my WW cookbooks. I've taken it to picnics and had several people ask for the recipe. Some are always a little surprised to learn it's a WW recipe. Beverly 177/141/~140 since 1996 |

determined wrote: Name your favorites "on the run" lunches I can't say it's a "favorite", but yesterday, needing to fuel while shopping, I tanked up with a no-fat yogurt, a banana, and a Kashi energy bar. All were washed down with some diet green tea while driving from Spring City to Pottstown on 724. So much better a choice, dietwise, than the hot ham sandwiches the gas station had at the counter. |
