Emergency picnic lunch + snacks

I just joined online (found out later that there is a meeting in my area
but can't go till after Thanksgiving!) In the meantime, I am going on a
field trip tomorrow (we hunt fossils) and am trying to come up with a
"core" goodie bag to take along. My usual is a peanut butter sandwich
on wholewheat. It also has to be finger food...added prob is braces on
my teeth, so carrots and things I have to bite into are out. I tried
using slices with mixed success.

How about veggie soup in a flask. Or wholewheat bread still but with low
fat cheese or reduced fat humous. Or tuna sandwich (no mayonaise). Cottage
cheese and corn? Bunch of grapes maybe for pudding?

glad you joined, make boiled eggs and peel in advance, core and finger food,
or make egg salad with boiled eggs, ff mayo and shredded ff cheese, put in a
baggie and take a plastic spoon, you could portion it out so you would know
how much you are eating. salsa and ff cheese mixed, carrots steamed cook
chicken breast and cut into strips to dip in salsa if you can get them cut
right. and if you go get that very thin deli roast beef that is core you
could put the egg salad inside that and roll it up to make it core food
without bread, or wrap the egg salad in a lettuce leaf, tomato, eat like an
apple, have a great time, Lee

Thanks, Kids, those are really good suggestions. I run "dry" from
time-to-time and end up throwing one of those prefab chicken salad
things in my backpack then I get hungry again in about 30 minutes
because it's really not very much to eat. AND very salty.
We have a great barbecue place here that uses leaner cuts and you can
buy it by the pound with the sauce on the side, so I am trying to keep
some of that in the fridge, as well as those Healthy Choice lean cold
cuts packages.
