HEALTHY lunch recipes?




Airhostess


Hi :)
As I work as an Air Hostess, I tend either not to eat enough, or eat too much rubbish (ie. chocolate, crisps etc.) I have an oven in work, so I'll be able to heat up meals.
I'm looking for things such as; stir frys etc, sandwiches, smoothies or types of healthy juices. A full lunch plan would be great! or just anything you can think of!

Thankkk you :)

One stir fry that's good for the go and quite filling : sprouted bean stir fry
1. 1 cup sprouted beans (the green ones are the tastiest for this recipe)
2. Green peppers 1 finely chopped
3. Garlic 2 pearls/cloves - finely diced
4. Ginger quarter of an inch - finely diced
5. A green chilli - finely chopped (add this if you like spicy food)
6. vinegar - 1/2 tsp
7. Soy sauce - 1/2 tsp (if you like the flavour)
8. Chopped cilantro (that's my twist to the recipe!)
9. Oil - canola/vegetable - 2 tsp
10. Salt to taste

Take a wok - heat the oil - add the garlic, ginger and chilly. Add the bell pepper - and saute on high flame - once the bell pepper is soft, add the sprouted beans, salt, vinegar and soy sauce. Saute all of this for a minute and remove from heat. Add some chopped cilantro - just a handful...and a tasty stir fry is ready to go.....

Answer
Eating out is really difficult as you've said. The meals are generally high in fat and calories and the cost adds up fast!

At kraftfoods.com, there are lots of great lunch ideas that can keep you eating right. Many of our recipes carry a designation of "Healthy Living" that means that they were designed with your health in mind.

A few suggestions:
Soups: You can make a batch, freeze it in single-serve containers and reheat when you're ready to serve it. If you don't have access to a microwave oven, you can put it in an insulated thermos-type container.

Sandwiches: To prevent soggy sandwiches, package the "wet" ingredients like tomatoes or lettuce in a separate package to keep them from getting the rest of the sandwich wet, too.

I'm not sure what your favorite flavors are, but if you search at:
http://www.kraftfoods.com/kf/recipes/AdvancedRecipeSearch.htm
then you can choose the type of recipe you'd like, exclude any ingredients that you don't care for, and specify low fat/low calorie/etc. types of recipes in the search.

PS: My vote is for the creamy squash soup!
