Here are some snack ideas:
- Make yourself an 'egg' (really tofu) salad sandwich or scoop onto crackers.

- Make a smoothie in a blender and add tofu for creaminess
These aren't with tofu but are are delicious:
Fruit salsa with baked cinnamon chips

Mini taco cups. I usually halve the cheese in this recipe:

You can always make a healthy dip such as hummus and have whole grain crackers and fresh veggies with it as well for health and protein.

Answer
LUNCHES
~ Cream cheese on zucchini bread
~ Sliced turkey, roast beef, or chicken from leftovers or the deli, and cheese, whole wheat roll, condiments of your choice. Pack lettuce and/or tomatoes separately if you like them.
~ Tuna salad sandwich in pita bread
~ Take your own salad ingredients, and small container of dressing
~ Yogurt and crunchy granola for topping
~ Fruit salad of grapes, melon chunks, and berries
~ Cold pasta salad
~ Hot soup in wide mouth thermos and whole grain crackers
~ Stew in wide mouth thermos with whole wheat roll
~ Chili with whole grain crackers
~ Leftover lasagna, spaghetti, mac and cheese, or casserole in wide mouth thermos, along with a whole wheat roll
~ Leftover stir-fry with chicken
~ Mini bagel sandwiches. Try them with flavored cream cheese, sliced chicken breast, and sliced tomatoes (pack separately to prevent the sandwiches from getting soggy)
~ Wraps (I've listed a link below to recipes for them)
_______________________________________________
SNACKS
~ Make your own trail mix by combining nuts, dried fruits like raisins, cranberries, bananas, etc., mini pretzels, Chex cereal, and M & M's or Reese's Pieces, pack in zip lock bags.
~ Make some Gingerbread Caramel Corn, store in air-tight container - recipe link below
~ Veggies like baby carrots, celery sticks, broccoli florets and dip (try the Sesame Seed Dip Recipe below)
~ "Ants on a Log" - cream cheese or peanut butter on celery sticks, topped with raisins
~ "Healthy" Fudgy Brownies - Recipe link below, these have less butter than traditional ones
~ "2-Ingredient YUM YUM BROWNIE MUFFINS" - here's the recipe
PER SERVING (1 muffin): 181 calories, 3.5g fat, 357mg sodium, 37g carbs, 2g fiber, 20g sugars, 2g protein
Ingredients:
One box devil's food cake mix (about 18 ounces)
One 15-ounce can pure pumpkin
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix the two ingredients together. The mixture will be very thick, but don't add anything else! Place batter into a 12-cup muffin pan lined with baking cups or sprayed with nonstick spray.
(I use paper liners for simplicity : )
Place pan in the oven, and bake for 20 minutes.
MAKES 12 SERVINGS
