This is a question I often ask myself, and I suspect many of you do too. I read Ricky Potts’ blog at www.rickyleepotts.com earlier this week and liked some of his answers about what to fix for lunch. While I know this is a Moms blog, Dads (future and current) are always welcome when they have tips like these.
What’s for lunch? I find myself asking this question almost every single day. Sometimes I chose Subway for their foot long oven roasted chicken breast. (I get mine on seven grain honey oat bread with pepper jack cheese, and the works minus the cucumber. Throw on some sweet onion dressing and you are good to go!) Others days I end up at the Chinese buffet. For $6 you can’t go wrong with some sweet and sour chicken and some fried rice. But lately I have been trying to eat a little healthier. I have stopped eating fast food (yes, Subway is still considered fast food) and begun shopping for low calorie and high protein meals. There are even some days when I want to take my own lunch to work rather than heating something up in the microwave.

Great find! I recently wrote on my own blog about lunch and finding healthy choices. The funny thing is- the easiest answer feels like the harder answer. If I just made a healthy salad- loaded with spinach and veggies, that would be the best lunch option. But that takes some planning and energy and that can be a struggle some days!
Are you saying you find Ricky’s post to contain HEALTHY options?
I find it to be ripe with horrible choices if you are trying to eat healthy. It should be entitled, “A recipe for disaster”
Ask an expert if you want good advice on what you should be eating if you would like to be healthy.
Don’t trust a self proclaimed expert on everything!
