Starting in the fall, I will be in class from 9am to 4pm straight on a few days. I need ideas/recipes for lunches/snacks that I can make the night before and eat in class. A very important part of this is that these foods cannot be noisy or hard to eat so as to not disturb the rest of my class. Does anyone have any ideas?


Answer
-Soups
-Salads with carrots, cucumbers, onions, tomatos, olives, add chicken for protein!
-Sandwiches, like cold cuts, with lettuce, tomatoes, on rolls
-Wraps, use cold cuts like ham or even grilled chicken and lettuce, tomatos, on tortillas, and cut in half.
-cheese with fruits cut up and crackers
-fruit salad and sprinkle with lemon juice so it doesn't turn brown by the time you eat it. You won't taste the lemon!
-chicken fingers
-Any leftovers from the night before's dinner made into a sandwich. If you had a flank steak, add some argula and you have a great sandwich, have fried chicken, bring that, chicken cutlets, put that on bread with lettuce and tomatos and you have a great sandwich! You can always bring leftovers! If you made beef stew, keep it in a thermos like the soup and bring that, it's hearty and it's comfort food!
-pizza, you can bring a few slices with you.
-Egg salad in bowl or on a sandwich
-Tuna on a sandwich or tuna salad on sandwich or in a bowl
-Hard boiled eggs in a salad
-You can always bring like an antipasto, which is the cold cuts, some cheeses, lettuce, tomato, bread, etc, in a tupperware container with a fork, and just eat it as you please. Add some olives in it. It's VERY filling!
-Pasta salad


I hope some of these ideas help!

Have any good recipes for truck drivers?

Q. I eat out of my truck to eat healthier instead of eating all that fast food. Anyone have any good recipes they can share? I have a microwave and a small rifrigarator in my truck. I am just tired of eating soup's and sandwiches all the time. I have tried a few to the microwave meals and was not very happy with them.


Answer
Microwave meatloaf:

1 lb ground beef or turkey
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 cup ketchup
1 tblsp brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup bread crumbs

Mix meat, egg, onion powder, worcestershire, and bread crumbs together. Using a pie plate, put inverted custard cup in the center and shape the meat in a ring around the cup. Mix ketchup and brown sugar in separate bowl and top meat mixture with this. Cover with paper towels. Microwave on high for about 8 minutes, rotating dish half-way through cooking time.

You may want to prepare this ahead and refridgerate then pop in the microwave when you're on the road.
