Seared Scallops with Cabbage, Bacon and Apple  (Cooking Light, Dec 2012)

Browned Butter Gnocchi with Broccoli and Nuts (Cooking Light, Dec 2012)

Bass en Papillote (Oxmoor House)

Any fish can work with this recipe, same with any vegetables.  Parchment paper works better than tinfoil!!  

And three new Lunch Ideas:

Quinoa Salad and Slice of Whole Grain Bread (Cooking Light)

Again, any veggies can be substituted.  You can also use red quinoa for a different colour!

Chili-Spiced Salmon Salad  (Men's Health)

Omit pistachios for lower fat content, and feel free to use a balsamic vinaigrette or similar spritz instead of making your own dressing—just make sure it is low cal!

Chicken Panini (Women's Health)

Make sure your bread is made from whole grains, not enriched wheat flour!  

Canned/Ready to Eat Meals:

Creations (Soup) by Campbells:  Lentil, or Harvest Minestrone  **look for low fat options!

Vegetable Garden Chili by Stagg

Can of tuna (not premixed with mayo)  You can add your own mayo if you need to.
