Eat healthy! Need ideas

[Charli1]

So my husband's doctor told us he needs to eat healthier and drop some weight. Easier said than done. I'm looking for lunch ideas that are quick and healthy. Looking for both cold and warm options.

How about wraps? We are having grilled chicken wraps tomorrow for lunch. We made the chicken today (slow cooker),will rip it apart and add hot sauce. Toss it, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and blue cheese in a wrap. Yum and healthy!

You can make all kinds of salads. I really like grilled chicken salad with tomatoes and some hard-boiled eggs. Wraps are another good option. They are quick and easy to make.

Definitely salads! I do get sick of them though. Egg salad sandwiches are also healthy. How about fruits and vegetables with dips. There are a lot of options.

Have you looked into the keto diet. It seems pretty popular. The only difficult thing about eating salads, is that I like all the bad stuff that goes in them to make them yummy. I love cheese and ranch dressing especially. Good on him if he can stick with healthier salad options.

Instead of eating meat at every supper, try having vegetarian nights once or twice a week. That's an easy fix that worked for me when my cholesterol got high and I needed to lose a few pounds. I wish him all the luck!

Restricting gluten items, replacements are available, worked like a charm for me.

Salads are great, so is squash, green beans, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, parsnips, carrots, sweet peppers, asparagus, and eggplant.
