I've been on a diet for 3 months and has lost weight. For work I take a fresh salad with a piece of chicken breast. I am getting tired of eating the same thing over and over again. I'm looking for a healthy recipe to make food for 5 days. I was thinking something like a stew or a chili bean mix with veggies or if you have any great healthy recipes I can have please share.
Thank you.

Try something high in fiber such as a sandwich on whole-grain wheat or rye bread...this way you can have natural peanut butter or almond butter, low-fat cheese and lean turkey, chicken, etc. whatever you want in moderation! You should bring a piece of fruit, low-fat yogurt, or make your own trail mix (with dried fruit for sure) to have with it or as a snack later! (the trail mix should include almonds and cashews as these are very nutritious and can include dry cereal, granola, raisins, soynuts, or cranberries) Or you could try bringing black bean, tomato, chicken noodle etc. soup in a thermos to work...You could also make your own tortilla wrap with shredded lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, olives, beans, lean turkey or chicken, peppers, pesto, onions or any combination you wish! Try making a casserole the night before out of brown rice, black beans, salsa, and shredded cheese on top, then re-heat in your work's microwave or in your microwave then stored in a thermos. As for new drinks, act like a kid and bring chocolate milk (or just bring regular milk) or your own water bottle...also sobe zero calorie lifewater is THE BEST flavored water i have ever had! It also contains many essential vitamins! so good luck!

- Pesto, tomato, baby spinach & mozzarella melt
- Falafel & hummus
- Tuna or Egg salad
- Almond or Peanut butter & jam
- Cheese & tomato melt
- Spinach/cheese omelet

- Black bean wrap with salsa & some cheese
- Veggie burger
- Grilled tofu sandwich or wrap
- Grilled tempeh sandwich or wrap
- Goat cheese, pesto, grilled vegetables
~ 2 hard boiled eggs with cottage cheese & toast, side salad or veggies
~ Salad: mixed baby greens, romaine or baby romaine lettuce with things like cherry tomatoes/tomato, cucumber, low-fat salad dressing, red onion, dried cranberries, goat or feta crumbles, walnut crumbles, almond slithers, chopped bell peppers, etc.
* For protein to the salad you can add things like:
- Chickpeas (or mixed beans)
- Grilled cubes of tofu
- Strips of grilled tempeh
- Salmon
- Tuna
- Sliced hard boiled eggs
~ Lentil vegetable soup - pair with a wheat pita & fruit, etc
~ Vegetables stir fried in a little bit of olive oil with either black beans or tofu or tempeh on brown/wild rice.
~ Veggie burger with brown/wild rice or sweet potato or quinoa with veggies or salad.

Cheerio ideas :)
- With yogurt or greek yogurt + you can add berries/fruit

- Make them into a snack mix with things like nuts, seeds, dried fruit like blueberries/cherries/cranberries/raisins, dark chocolate chips, etc.
I hope this helps =)
