The BEST lunch ever!!

June 3, 2010 by DanicasDaily 9 Comments

Happy Friday Eve all!  Wanna hear something sorta ironic?  The Pomegranate Blueberry Jelly I’ve been digging lately I bought at the same time I stocked up on my Nut Barn goodies last year.  Ummm….the Nut Barn Almond Butter and Nuts didn’t last, but, the jelly is now disappearing fast!

I seriously cannot get enough of TJ’s Whole Wheat Sour Dough + Laughing Cow+ POM Jam (3.5 pts).

Plus deliciously sweet watermelon & cantaloupe.  Did you know you can get 1 1/3 cups for 1 point versus just 1 cup?  I am ALL about more for the same points 😀

MMMMM….this may be a repeat tomorrow!

Mid morning I snacked on 1 serving of BUTTER TOFFEE ALMONDS from Nut Barn ~ Probably my favorite flavored almond ever ~ buttery, caramelly, crunchy and salty :)  You get ALOT for 4 points!

BODY PUMP was awesome today ~ I was so pumped and even braved increasing my weight.  I had totally shakey arms and legs after….Love that!  My Body Bugg said I burned 313 calories for my 40 minute class – woohoo!

Lunch today was PHENOMENAL!!! As in you will see me eat this again!

It started out with my favorite Green Chili Farmer’s Market Tortillas!

Then, my favorite Farmer’s Market Hummus ~ Black Bean with Chipotle Hummus!

However, I think the real star of the show were the AmyLu Sweet Caramelized Onion Chicken Burgers.  They are fully cooked and I keep them in the freezer to grab them when I am feeling like a burger.  You can buy them at Costco in the fridge section next to the CHEESE and other VEGAN BURGERS I like!

Red peppers and GOUDA ~ these burgers are totally juicy & loaded with flavor!!!!

3 POINTS EACH!!!!  Totally juicy, smokey and tasty!

Plus a little Low Fat Sharp Cheddar for dairy…..

THE BEST LUNCH EVER!!! Seriously ~ this is on my top 10 list of favorites and it goes together in minutes.  My co-worker whipped up a salad for us with TJ’s Lowfat Spicy Peanut Dressing and Now Foods Cajun Sesame Stick’s while I did our chicken burger TACOS!

I couldn’t taste the cheese so I think next round I might leave it off.  All together lunch clocks in at (7.5 pts sans the nectarine I didn’t eat).

I wasn’t hungry at all this afternoon but I really wanted some CHOCOLOVE!  I decided to bust out some Annie’s Sunny Citrus Bunnies and they totally cured my sugar craving. (1 pt).

The Husband and I had to run up to meet our tenant tonight soooooooo, we had to visit Jack, JACK’s URBAN EATS!

I wasn’t going to get any meat, but, I found the words Spicy Buffalo Chicken coming out of my mouth…..seriously, how can you resist this?!

IMG_3594

MMMMM, I LOVE Jack’s Salads ~ they seriously complete me :D !!!

IMG_3589

10 points and worth every one!

*Mixed Greens

* Kidney Bean/Garbanzo Blend

* Cranberries

* Candied Walnuts

* Mandarin Oranges

* Pepperoncini’s

* Red Bell Pepper

* House Made Balsamic

I seriously think I am drooling everywhere looking at my food today ~ it was a good day and a really GOOD food day!

THE BEST NEWS OF THE DAY ~ I GET MY CAMERA BACK TOMORROW!!!!  Just in time for PHOTO FRIDAY, hopefully!

Ok ~ YOUR TURN ~ What is the BEST LUNCH you ever ate???

    I am so into big salads and smoothies right now for lunch. Maybe its the weather but I seem to eat these often in the summer.

    I am now inspired to make a buffalo “chickenless” salad for dinner soon. Yum!!!

    Mmm that does look like an awesome lunch! Mine has to be a tie. I’m not too inventive for my own lunches, but the falafel place down the street makes EPIC wraps… and my favorite Ed-wich sandiwch at The Picinic Basket back home were definitely BEST ever! 😀

    You reminded me that I like those chicken burgers as wraps. I use the 1 point white whole grain La Tortilla factory wraps- once I added in some leftover sauteed mushrooms, fresh spinach, and a string cheese shredded up- WOW It was SO good!! I love that you can do anything with those. Oh and they taste GREAT! 🙂

    Those salads from Jack’s always look DELICIOUS! YUM! 🙂

    Your food looks so good and I’ve purchased those tortillas and they’re so good. Also love me some jack’s urban eats. The location on Capitol is always so packed but I grab and go.

    Yum… I’m hungry now.
