healthy soup and sandwich recipes image
Jackie
My co-workers and I practically live at work, so we decided to start eating healthy meals for lunch instead of grabbing fast food. What are some healthy meal ideas for breakfast and lunch?
We have a refrigerator, toaster, crock pot, and for man grill.
Answer
How about some turkey burgers on the grill? You could buy pre-shaped turkey burger patties, or make your own. Making your own is really easy. You just need 1lb ground lean turkey, 1 egg, some salt/pepper, 1/2 a small onion, diced, and a little Worchester sauce. You just combine all the ingredients in a large bowl, and form into patties. You can do this ahead of time and put into a Ziploc bag (with a sheet of waz paper between each patty) and use within a day or two, otherwise you can freeze them. Then just grill them on the grill at work, and place on whole wheat buns or sandwich thins, with tomato slices, lettuce, a slice of cheese, and whatever condiments you like.
I also like to use my crock pot to make good dinners. There are tons of recipes out there, for everything from beef stews, to vegetable soups. Here are a few you can try out:

What are some healthy, portable lunch ideas?
katie b
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!
