A Quick & Easy (Healthy) Lunch!

Lunch is one of those meals that I am quick to forget.  Wake up hungry?  Eat Breakfast.  Realize you're hungry at the end of the day?  Eat dinner.  Get too busy during the day?  Forget lunch, opps.





While I try to not let this happen too often I will be the first to admit that it happens more often than I would like.

What is the solution?  Having simple, healthy and delicious items readily available to throw together a quick lunch.

My new favorite product?


They are really good without being as heavy as a regular bagel.  They work well stuffed with turkey and lettuce as a sandwich, with peanut butter and sliced bananas as a quick breakfast and especially good as the base for a pizza bagel!

Ready for a 10 minute lunch?

Place bagel halves on a cookie sheet and add 1 tablespoon sauce to each half: 30 seconds.



Top with spinach (or not): 5 seconds


Add 1 slice deli pepperoni (or not): 5 seconds


Next comes a sprinkling of cheese: 5 seconds


And possible some sliced mushrooms: 5 seconds


Into a 350 oven for 7-8 minutes and out comes lunch!




Pair this with an orange or fruit of your choice and you have a 300 calorie lunch!


PS Please ignore the horrible state of my cookie sheet, good thing the Wilton sale is right around the corner!!!
