What's for lunch?

What's everyone having for lunch?

A coworker gave me the idea to start having an "allowance" to help us save money for the wedding/future and budget ourselves better. I thought this was an awesome idea so FI and I decided to put our cards away and have $20/week for food and such. So far it isn't going well. I am down to my last $1 and forgot to bring a lunch. I really want to stick with it and leave my debit card in my wallet so I scrounged through my desk and purse and I found another $1.50 in my purse. My lunch consisted of the high school favorite of Mt. Dew and Sour Cream and Cheddar chips. If I get hungry later I have a pop tart

I want to live vicariously through you ladies and your (hopefully) better and possibly healthier lunches.

I ate mac & cheese with broccoli. And iced tea.

Not particularly healthy, but I like to think the broccoli makes it better.

Right now I'm eating some cantaloupe. My best friend is paying me a visit and is bringing me pork and veggie dumplings. And Starbucks.

No clue.  I may go home at lunch for a while since nothing is going on here.  We all just had champagne and orange juice and it was really bad.

I just finished mowing and weed-wacking the front yard so I'm starving now. I'll probably have these:



They are awful for you but they're a guilty pleasure of mine.

What?!  Mimosas are delish! 

I had a pb&j (smart balance pb and reduced sugar jelly on whole wheat bread so not horrible) with yogurt and some walnuts for lunch.  And a mountain dew.

How can you eat that?

KD, I love the stroganoff Lipton noodles, so I hear you on that guilty pleasure!

Oh, and I plan to have Chipotle for lunch. I get a bowl with rice, black beans, fajita veggies, two kinds of salsa, extra romaine, and a bit of guac. Kinda high calorie, but has healthy fat, fiber, protein, and veggies, so I refuse to feel guilty.

Because it's "spinach" pasta. I know it's just food coloring but that doesn't bother me.

I had a bowl of homemade low-fat chili.  It was a leftover from last night.  Yum!

I had scrambled eggs with swiss cheese, lean ham, grapefruit, and a slice of whole wheat toast.
