Let's share some lunch ideas that are super yummy!

My favorite right now is taco salad...

make a large veggie salad on a plate. Throw 2 corn tortillas in the oven to crisp(right on the rack at 400). Drain a can of blackbeans. Chop an onion and cook until transluscent with no oil---just spray. Add the beans to the onions and mix in a can of tomato sauce, some cumin, garlic powder and chili powder to taste. Cook for 3 minutes or so. Pour this over top of the salad. Slice or break apart the tortillas and put on top of salad, top with half an avocado chopped up and top the whole thing with a pile of yummy salsa. This is soooo YUMMMY!! and Good for you too!

any other ideas??

Lately I've been into tofu stir fry w/peppers, onions and mushrooms, put into a tortilla w/some salsa.

sometimes i just eat my sprouted bread (slightly toasted) with some marinara for a quick lunch or fast snack. I like it cold, too, is that wierd? Bf says it's wierd. Anyway, I also like egg sandwiches with veggies, leftover rice makes a quick stir-fry or a nut-butter and preserves sandwich.

Half the time I just graze, though - So i end up eating a nuts, fruit, seeds, cheese and veggie sandwiches, goats milk yogurt, or I'll just make an anti-pasta platter with olives, cheese, artichoke hearts, roasted red peppers and maybe some good cheese. As you can see, I gotta have the quick lunches! YUM!
