If someone is selling sneakers in which are generally supposed to be able to always be UGGs with a price tag in which looks far too excellent to be able to always be true, they're practically surely not necessarily real. Traditional UGG footwear has the particular company's emblem about the particular sole, which it is possible to look meant for if buying inside person. You're safest, whether or not buying on-line and also offline, getting UGG footwear coming from an authorized retailer. Inside recent ages, UGG sneakers have got gotten really somewhat along with publicity since a lot more people today are generally discovering their particular virtues. Since they've grow to be far better well-known and also widened their particular assortment, their particular customers have got steadily improved inside number.

[For meat/fish/fowl entres, I adore using spice/seasoning mixes and marinades. Mornings before work I pop a piece of meat from the freezer into a zip lock bag with marinade, squeeze out the air and stick it in the fridge and it is ready by the time I get home.

One of the best purchases I ever made was 5 of these at the 99¢ Only store.



When I cook a meal, I can portion out my immediate needs, then fill the containers before I start to eat, so there's no going back for seconds. Containers can be refrigerated or frozen, and they are microwave and dishwasher safe. Although I always try to use the top rack for plastics, I have washed these on the bottom rack with no meltdowns!

I went to a site http://www.reynoldskitchens.com they have foil packet meals. You can make them individual and it shouldn't be too hard to make them low-fat or specialized to a particular taste. I hope you find the site helpful.

This week's main lunch component was taco salad. I don't know that I'd ever MADE a taco salad before...sure have eaten plenty at Wendy's over the years, though! hehe Anyhow, this was a VERY container-heavy meal since I wanted to keep a lot of the elements apart until I was ready to eat...I could barely stuff them all into my lunch bag at once! LOL

Here's what I did:
1. Container 1: Large container of field greens.
2. Container 2: Mixture of 2-2 1/2 oz. lean ground beef seasoned with taco seasoning* and 1/3 cup kidney beans with a bit of bean liquid.
3. Container 3: Salsa for on top the salad.
4. Container 4: Chopped tomatoes for on top of the salad.
5. Container 5: Baggie of crushed lowfat/baked/saltfree tortilla chips.
6. Container 6: Side dish of cucumbers, tomatoes and red onion in balsamic vinaigrette.

*I vastly reduce the ratio of taco seasoning to ground beef when I make taco filling because the sodium level is so high (I have borderline hypertension). I fill in with some chili powder.

Here's what I would do differently next time:
1. Use some other sort of greens (perhaps green leaf or butter lettuce). The field greens were a little bitter and a little tough for this purpose, though I eat them all the time as a regular salad. I guess my palate is just used to a taco salad being on iceberg lettuce from my years of eating Wendy's! hehe
2. I would use as low sodium a tortilla chip as I could find but wouldn't use the salt-free again (unless someone can recommend a brand of salt-free that tastes great). They were not only terribly bland without any salt, but they just had no flavor at all. Bleh.

By the way, the salsa I used was a new jar I just bought at Whole Foods on Monday for this purpose. It is very yummy. I'll have to remember to post the brand name when I'm home. I think it may be Amy's Organic, but not sure.

I FINALLY have something to post in here Smiler I'm far from single and/or living alone (I've been married for 15 years and have 4 children....quite a houseful Smiler). BUT this past week, I started going back to something that had worked for me in the past for lunches, and that is to make a veggie based lunch for myself while keeping the kids lunches what they normally eat (sandwiches, burritos, quesadillas, tostadas, etc)

This week I was really in the mood for asian (I'm actually ALWAYS in the mood for asian...I LOVE the stuff Smiler). So I did a couple of different things. It only takes about 10 minutes total, and you could do a whole week's worth and individually package them and pop em in the fridge or freezer.

The first thing I did was to make the Green Thai Curry that Denise had posted (My variationis also on this same page), and served it over udon noodles (found in the asian section of your grocery store...but you could also use plain ol' spaghetti or linquine if you wanted....I measured out 2 oz. dry, and of the udon noodles, it is 4 1/2 oz when cooked).

The other variation I did on this was to use corn, zucchini, mushrooms, and red bell pepper with about 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce (I used this recipe that is listed in this thread, and only used 2 T. of the brandy. I'm planning on making some more today and trying rice vinegar instead of the brandy....see how it turns out.
WIth the teriyaki version I also used udon noodles, and it was SOOOO good! Best teriyaki bowl I've ever had, and you know, both of these recipes came in right around 300 calories, and I couldn't eat all of either of them! So I'm guessing that my lunches were both under 300 calories, and they stayed with me much longer than just a sandwich, or even a salad with meat would have.


Blessings,

Lori

Yesterday, I bought all the ingredients to make a slaw that I make similar to my Confetti Pasta Salad except with slaw mix in place of the whole wheat pasta. I shopped right before dinner and, once I was home, wasn't in the mood to chop all the bell peppers I usually put in, so I did a throw-together of just the store-bought stuff with my usual homemade dressing and it was really tasty.

Note: As with almost everything I make, there is no actual recipe so amounts are approximate. Also, because I am single, I tend to make smaller batches of stuff like this because I don't like the taste/texture of it after it's been sitting in the fridge for days. If you're making it for a picnic or something, you could probably use the whole bag of slaw mix and half a bag or so each of carrots and red cabbage.

"Throw & Go" Quick Slaw

Throw about 1 1/2 cups of storebought slaw mix into a large lidded plastic container and add a about a cup each of storebought shredded carrots and storebought shredded red cabbage.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together about 1 1/2 tablespoons of seasoned rice wine vinegar with about 1-2 teaspooons each of Dijon deli-style mustard* and honey. Grind in some fresh black pepper and add a good pinch of celery seed. Once that's all well blended, drizzle and blend in about a tablespoon of olive oil until well emulsified.

Pour dressing over slaw, toss and go!

* I go back and forth all the time between the regular Grey Poupon dijon mustard and the deli-style--either can be used.

And no hot oven! Smiler


Oooh, Sheri, GREAT idea!

Just wanted to say "welcome" to you Jen.

Some budget friendly, healthy meals that came to mind for me are:

Frittatas with whatever veggies you have on hand mixed in with the eggs

Beans with tomatoes and whatever other veggies you enjoy (for a salad)

Pasta dishes made with ww pasta and veggies with goat cheese

ww couscous with veggies and left over meats



Out of our beliefs are born deeds; out of our deeds we form habits; out of our habits grows our character; and on our character we build our destiny.

Thanks for all of the suggestions for those of us who are "single in the city"! I finally broke down this weekend and bought some Healthy Choice meals to take for lunch. The cafeteria at the hospital where I work doesn't have too many affordable healthy meal options, so, even though I love to cook, the pre-made meals were the better option. I finally admitted to myself that I don't have much time to cook this summer - I just bought a house and I'm also studying for my professional certification exams - so I'm searching for healthy short-cuts that are friendly to my budget and my waistline. Any other non-salad suggestions? Don't get me wrong, I love a good salad, but I'm a little burnt out on the greens right now.

Well, what if, on a day when I had a lot of time to bum around the kitchen, I made up a bunch of those from scratch from my OWN spice mixes, bagged them up in ziploc bags or in tupperwares, and saved them for a day when I didn't have the energy to put them together?

Hi Kali,

<sorry for the late post... i just joined the group>
I think you have a terrific idea! Just the thought of eating all that Ramen makes me remember my college days, and shudder. Smiler You might look for books at the library with titles like, "Perfect Mix" or "Make a Mix" -- there might be some recipes you could use to pre-package your own mixes. Good luck!
