Need quick ideas for lunch for me
I'm a SAHM and can never find time to make myself lunch. It makes me nuts and makes DH mad. Taking care of the baby, straightening up and feeding the baby is always the priority and I forget to take care of myself. My stomach starts growling and I remember I haven't eaten more than a banana or a handful of cereal. I need to be better about buying things that are easy to throw together. What do you all eat for lunch, I need some ideas, please????

Re: Need quick ideas for lunch for me
When I was home on maternity leave, I'd make a sandwich the night before so I could eat while holding DS. Or last weekend I made a TON of homemade soup, and we've been having that for lunch.

Re: Need quick ideas for lunch for me
I like the healthy choice steamers- they make a small sized one that says perfect for lunch- it's in a rectangular box
They have some yummy combos and you can keep them in the freezer and pop them in the micro.

Re: Need quick ideas for lunch for me
I was having the same problem. This week I've started packing a lunch, just like I would if I was going to work. So at night, after DD is in bed, when DH is putting together his lunch for the next day, so do I. Salad, soup, leftovers, a sandwich - nothing fancy, just something healthier than a handful of chips.

I'm having the same issue. I was having PB&J most days, but now my pediatrician thinks nuts are affecting DD (I BF), so there's goes that. I'm going to stock up on some Amy's soups and try to make use of dinner leftovers.

Re: Need quick ideas for lunch for me
i have the same problem. i bought some cold cuts at whole foods so i can make a quick sandwich. sometimes i will quickly fry or boil up an egg. I try to also eat what DD is eating. I buy frozen pancakes, and we share one, or i make an extra for myself while shes eating. Or we share some cheerios. Other times i can make a tray of pasta or lasagna and eat that for the week. same with tuna or egg salad. its tough...

Re: Need quick ideas for lunch for me
I used to eat english muffins a lot when DS was first born. Now I dont really eat that much when I'm home. I know its not good either.
