Wraps are good.  You get a whole wheat tortilla, and put sandwich meats or lettuce, tomatoes, whatever.  You could put on some mayo or use some salad dressing on it.  Then wrap it up like a burrito.

I used to take soup to work.  Progresso has some healthy but tasty choices.

Sometimes I just like pasta with sauteed vegetables and a little salad dressing.  That might be good with some chicken or beef in it too.  I use Dreamfield's pasta which is a low carb pasta that actually tastes pretty much like regular pasta.  I have tried other low carb pastas, and they were inedible.

I like Morning Star's frozen "chicken" patties.  This is what my husband calls a chicken-like product.  It is actually a soy patty made to taste like chicken.  Erin and I like to make a sandwich with them.

Dear Group:

I have been realizing that I need/want to save some money and oh by
the way also eat healthier, so I am going to start taking my lunch to
work.

My request, then, is for healthy lunch ideas. I'm stuck in the
sandwich/carrots with cottage cheese dip rut. I've tried to take
salads but am stuck in the romaine lettuce/veggies/croutons/blue
cheese rut.

Do any of you routinely take your lunch to work? If so, what do you
take? Any suggestions? Recipes? Ideas?

Thanks!!!

Donna
