healthy sandwich recipes for men 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 good healthy meals/recipes for a 1 1/2 year old?
Megan
I am engaged to a man with a 1 1/2 year old little boy. So I will soon be a full time mother (the child's mother is not in his life.) His father travels a lot for his work so I will be his primary care giver and I am worried about making sure he has healthy food but I also want food that will be easy for him to eat. I'm open to breakfast, lunch, and dinner ideas.
