WW, what do you eat for Breakfast and Lunch?

I'm pretty good with dinners and even snacks, but I'm getting tired of my same breakfasts (fiber one toaster pastry or 2slices of ww bread & 1 egg)....my lunches are smart ones or boca chicken patties on ww bread

Re: WW, what do you eat for Breakfast and Lunch?

My breakfast is a Morningstar Farms Grillers Chik'n Veggie Patty on toasted Sara Lee Delightful bread, with sliced egg whites (4 pts)

Lunch is a salad made up of butter lettuce, red, yellow and green sliced peppers, scallions and grilled chicken. Kraft Red Roasted Pepper dressing...(4 pts)

I tried an egg casserole dish over the weekend that I got from the WW website (I tweaked it to lower the points even more). Fantastic and only 3 pts! I will post it.....You can make it the night before and put in individual tupperware containers and bring to work......

breakfast.

grits with fruit
chobani yogurt with fruit
eggbeaters or eggwhites with veggies

lunch

grilled chicken or shrimp with
- a high fiber low cal wrap, laughing cow cheese, and mixed greens.
- veggies(taken from frezer if I don't have them in the fridge), tomato sauce & sprinkle of mozarella cheese
-with feta cheese, tomatos and cucumbers with a small amount of salad dressing, possibly brown rice too.
-mixed with whole wheat pasta & tomato sauce
-roast potatos and veggies


what about taking the boca chicken patties and putting it ontop a huge salad - maybe throw in some shredded hard boiled egg, and a little well cooked bacon chopped up.

try and have at least 4 things you can rotate between so you don't get bored.

there is also a quiche I like- no crust. You put some healthier bisquick, egg beaters, milk, olive oil, thawed frozen veggies, some shredded cheese. Its so good.

I eat a bunch of mish-moshed things for breakfast:
a hard-boiled egg and a package of oatmeal
a grapefuit and a package of farina
an egg wrap with onions, peppers, cheese and zucchini
cottage cheese and fruit
a protein shake
a yogurt and a fruit

When I am not being good...Chat Icon ...a muffin (Costco size) or a whole, bagel-place bagel with cream cheese.

Believe it or not, you don't even know it's there! I'm NOT a fan of cottage cheese and I was afraid of how this would turn out, but it's delish!!

Re: WW, what do you eat for Breakfast and Lunch?

i try to have yogurt for breakfast everyday or puffins cereal. Sometimes cottage cheese with blueberries.

Lunch is a salad normally, or sushi with brown rice.

Although post- wedding I have definitely been indulging. I think its allowed since I was practically malnurished for the two months leading up to the wedding.

breakfast- 3 egg whites well done. then i add 4 slices of turkey or chicken cold cuts and i let that grill on the egg whites, face down. it gives the eggs flavor so i dont need salt or pepper or ketchup. and i put that all in a ww pita pocket or 2 slices of ww toast.

sounds good. I like cottage cheese.... topped on veggies or pasta, but haven't tried it heated in anything......

although I guess I shouldn't be that surprised as there are these great cookies I love to make that have creamed ricotta in them and you couldnt tell thats what it is.

Re: WW, what do you eat for Breakfast and Lunch?

For breakfast most days, I have a light and fit yogurt and a piece of fruit. That's what I take for breakfast to work.
When I'm home, I either have an omelet with egg beaters and 1 slice of 2% american cheese or I love puffed wheat cereal (with no sugar) and a banana cut up in it.
For lunch, I usually have a sandwich with two oz. of turkey, lettuce, tomatoes and mustard on 2 slices of light 7 grain bread.
Or
A salad with half an avocado diced up and balsamic vinegar (no oil) for 5 pts.
