Ossie-Sharon 10 years ago | Hi, you two. The following are a list of popular items: • Fresh and dried fruit • Cut raw vegetables • Oven-baked vegetable chips • Nuts and seeds • Trail mix combinations of nuts, seeds, and dried fruit • Sandwiches – good breads with nut butters, hummus and similar spreads, tahini, canned or smoked fish, cheese, homemade “cold cuts” from fresh meats, egg salad, etc. • Whole grain or Paleo crackers plus any of the above • Hard-boiled eggs • Sliced or string cheese • Cottage cheese • Yogurt • Milk (dairy or vegetal), plain or flavored with cocoa powder and a recommended sweetener • Hearty soup in a thermos (2-3 food groups, i.e. meat or legume, vegetable, whole grain) • Hearty smoothie/shake in a thermos (2-3 food groups, i.e. fruit/vegetable, dairy/vegan, seeds) • Edamame or other legume/pulse snacks • Whole grain or Paleo cereal or granola (cold in small sealable bag, cooked in thermos) • Canned beans • Prepared healthy foods in containers – from leftovers or prepared the night or weekend before. • Homemade whole-food muffins or bars • Popped grains, i.e. organic popcorn, sorghum, quinoa If you use the Menu Planner application to build your menus, you can select these for both your meals and snacks. |

This amount of food / cooking etc just does not fit in with a random schedule. Could do with a menu Create Check Box , that allows for menu creation of Non cook main meal items. Things that can be grabbed from a local supermarket / filling station with no need to cook. ideally airport security friendly too…so less than 100ml if liquid. |
nicky5065 10 years ago | Hi – I am new to TDC and am wondering whether anyone has ideas for snacks that are easy to take to work and eat on the go… some of the ideas are easy – such as an apple and 2 oatcakes, but some not practical for me. Has anyone got any tips? |
