Hey, What's For Lunch?

If your schedule is anything like mine, then lunch can be challenging.  No time to get out and buy a good lunch and very little time to eat the home made lunch you've packed.  Here's the answer to all your woes:

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  Every week, take some time while you're watching television in the evening and make a beautiful pot of soup.  There are so many easy to cook soup recipes out there in cyber space or at your local bookstore.  Spicy Moroccan meatball soups, Thai seafood soup, chicken lentil, vegetarian soups...there are thousands to choose from.  Soups can be transported in a tupperware and microwaved in less than 2 minutes.  Soups can be loaded with proteins, carbs, vitamins, minerals and all types of yummy ingredients.  Soups are filling and satisfying.  Finish off your lunch with a piece of fruit and you're set.  Today, I had pulled chicken and red lentil and vegetable soup.  You can even cheat by purchasing a rotisserie organic chicken ready made from Whole Foods Market and throwing the whole bird into the pot.  Simply delicious!  Low fat and so good for you.  Soup's on in my house - how about yours?
