Answer
4 small chicken breasts, sliced into strips
1 tablespoon Cajun spice
2 teaspoons olive oil
4 large flour tortillas
1/2 cup tzatikki dip
1 medium zuccini, grated
1 large carrot, grated
Method:
1. Place chicken strips, Cajun spice and oil in a bowl, cover and set aside for 10 minutes.
2. Heat a large non-stick fry pan over a medium-high heat.
3. Place the chicken strips in the pan and cook, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes or until brown and cooked through. Transfer to a bowl and keep warm.
4. Top each tortilla with Tzatziki dip, carrot, zuccini and grated carrot.
5. Serve immediately, or wrap for later use with a green salad of your choice.
Or a sandwich with a salad can be an easier alternative.
Salads are really good also.

What are some healthy school lunches and snacks?
Q. Can anyone give me a 7 day eating plan for school, including a lunch and two snacks?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!
Answer
Monday: Tortilla Pizza
1. Take a small 7 inch whole-wheat tortilla (90 calories) and put it between two paper towels and put it on a plate. Microwave for 1 minute 30 seconds.
2. Spread 1 tbsp tomato sauce all over it. I use Ragu sauce, which is about 10 calories per tbsp.
3. Chop up a slice of turkey breast, 1/4 of a sweet bell pepper, a small white mushroom, and 1/2 a baby cucumber. You can use whatever toppings you like, but these are all super healthy. Toppings are about 40 calories.
4. Take a slice of cheese and fold it in half. Take the half and spread it all over your cheese (30 calories).
5. Toast it in those little ovens for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
Has 170 calories
Snack: Silhouette 35 calories yogurt and an apple
Tuesday: Frittata
1. Preheat the broiler. Take a small little skillet (because this is only for 1 person) and drizzle 1/2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil in the skillet. Sautee 1/4 cup sweet bell peppers, 2 tbsp chopped onion, and 1 mushroom chopped.
2. Once the vegetables are tender to your liking, transfer them to a plate. Don't re-oil the pan. Whisk 2 eggs together and pour it into the skillet. Once the bottom is set, put the vegetables in the frittata, making sure it's even.
3. Stick it in the broiler for 5 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
Has about 160 calories
Snack: 6 almonds (or more, if you're feeling particularly hungry) and yogurt
Wednesday: Tuna Salad Wrap
1 6 ounce tuna can packed in water, drained
2 tsp mayonnaise
2 tsp mustard
2 tsp relish
2 small whole-wheat tortilla
1. Open the tuna can and add mayonnaise, mustard, and relish. Mix well.
2. Spread the tuna mixture on the tortilla, roll up, and eat.
You can 1/2 the recipe or make two tortillas and save the other one for an after school snack. Has about 450 calories.
Snack: Baby carrots and an apple
Thursday: Chicken Salad
1. Cook the amount of chicken you want to put in your salad in a pan. Once it's fully cooked, transfer it to a plate. I would be using 4 small slices fully cooked seasoned chicken breasts from Lilydale.
2. Cut some lettuce, sweet bell peppers, cucumbers, celery, and whatever other vegetables you want to put in your salad. Vegetables are super low in calories and celery is even a negative calorie.
3. Put your desired low-fat dressings. I like to put a lot of mustard, a tsp of mayonnaise, and relish.
About 140 calories
Snack: Granola bar and banana
Friday: Peanut Butter Banana Sandwich
1. Take a slice of whole-wheat bread and cut it in half, so you get two thin slices of bread.
2. Spread 1 tbsp of peanut butter over the sandwich.
3. Cut a banana into slices and put it on top of your peanut butter. Top with the other slice of bread.
Should be about 285 calories
Snack: Yogurt and 6 almonds
That's about all I can come up with. I'm sorry it's not a 7 day eating plan, but I hope it helped!
