Office Lunch

[Mr.X]

I know they are low in the GI category, but I still dont think they are one of the best.......maybe top 5......brown rice and whole grains gotta come before..........just my opinion...too each his own bra.....

Beans are lower on the GI scale than brown rice...

Do up an Italian beef stew, just watch the sodium and starches. Or how about baked Perogies (sp) with your choice of stuffing with Yogurt instead of Sour Cream. There are also a lot of Texas Chilli recipes out there - add cocoa, instant coffee, touch of brown sugar - lean beef and add in your oils..

I agree X - think I'll stick to the numero uno - YAMS! 6oz for lunch enough?

kidney beans, long grain white rice+ shredded cheddar cheese (low fat if you like) in a whole wheat tortilla, I like that one... add spices too if you want.. hot chilli powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper, minced garlic.. diced tomatoes even.. lettuce... lots of good combos..

omelette !

eggs (1 yolk for every 3 whites)
+ oatmeal
+ some greens for taste

Topic is Office Food.....dont think we have a range, but I'll be sure to check + it's wayyy too much effort/smell for an office.........unless you are talking make it at home and take it in, which would necessitate microwaving......umm...I'll pass

If you want something easy to prepare and odourless : boiled eggs

If your office has a toaster oven, make quesadillas. Just fold a tortilla in half & add in your mixins like cheese, ff refried beans, save the salsa for later to dip cuz it'll make the tortilla soft.

Are you talking about office food to make in the office, to re heat in the microwave or don't you have a fridge/microwave, etc to heat things?
