What’s for Lunch?
It’s been a while since I’ve cooked for my lunches. So this week I made shredded chicken quesadillas. I’m afraid the chicken may be a bit too moist after cooking in the slow cooker with salsa. Hoping the tortillas don’t get too soggy by the end of the week.
Calorie Breakdown
- 4oz chicken – 110
- 28g Monterey jack shredded cheese – 110
- Flour tortilla – 70
- Mild salsa -30
- Assorted bell peppers – 20

I’ve noticed over the last few weeks, since including breakfast back in, I’ve been eating that around 9, and then lunch closer to 12:30-1 than 11 like I was when fasting. This means I don’t need as many snacks in the afternoon. Basically my snack calories went to my breakfasts.
Containers Used
- Glass containers for lunches
- Rubbermaid containers for breakfasts and snacks – These containers have help up for nearly a year. They do great in the microwave and haven’t stained yet! If you’re going to go plastic I highly recommend these.
Notes
- I’m personally trying to stick to a 1200-1500 daily calorie limit. This may not work for you. Change these recipes as much as you need to make them work.
