OK, so when Alyssa said she was going out of town, and I know we are all busy I thought I would share some of my knowledge on easy foods for when your working or traveling....
maybe I am telling everyone things they already know.hopefully not..but here are some healthy foods to grab on go.
to buy ahead of time:
.nf greek yogurt (2 pts 80 calories and 13 gr of protien, 0 fiber) they sell this at TJs, fiberone bar 2 pts for choch., pb is 3 and they have a new carmel, um south beach has 100 calorie bars that I think are 1-2 pts for a fun treat, thomas 100 cal english muffins are 1 pt, boca burgers, check calories, most are 1-2 pts, trader joes has a low fast string cheese, 60 calories, 1 pt, with decent amount of protien, um, what else, oh yeah TJ has a split pea organic canned soup for 1 pt a serving, with good fiber and protien, check out soups ladies, they are easy and can be healthy..also a good thing to get on the go, just stay away from the chowder...progresso has lots of 1 pt soups, or TJ has some of those to go ones that are great...
fast food:
believe it or not, KFC, get a chicken breast take off the skin it's 3 pts, stay away from the biscuit, that is 5 pts, corn is only 1 pt, so get chicken breast, 2 corns and that's 5 pts...
boston market, get either the roasted turkey (3) or chicken, they also have a good salad
at other fast food try and stay away from the buns, they just tend to be overprocessed
whitebread...
order a kids meal...
cut out the cheese and mayo
oh yeah Taco Bell has al fresco, good idea to try those...
only eat 1/2 of what you order, get a soup ahead of time..stay away from the bread bowl and fries...
subway, pretty awesome, the turkey breast, roast beef, ham sandwichs are 5 pts, or the turkey wrap is 4 pts...it's on the jarrod meal..the grilled chicken and spinach (no dressing or croutons is only 2 pts!! stay away from tuna it is 12 pts for a 6 inch..
any other tips??
to be continued...
