I find that I am usually eating breakfast and lunch on the run.  I've been trying to find simple, quick recipes that will align with my mixed type diet .  Here's what I've tried, and hopefully they're acceptable!

Breakfast:  a lettuce wrap (or two)  using a big-leaf lettuce, with ham and either some mustard or avacado (if they're on sale that week! :)

Lunch:  Salad with mixed greens, broccoli, cauliflower, feta (or other cheese), some sort of meat (chicken, ham, turkey) and simple dressing of olive oil, garlic, vinegar, salt and pepper.  Sometimes a piece of fruit if I get a craving or a handful of nuts

So far, these have been working for satisfying me.  My worst cravings are for sugary snacks (after reading up on mercola.com I think I just need to get it out of my system), and I mean sugary:  candy, chocolate, jellybeans, etc. 

Any suggestions on how to improve my "quick" recipes?

 

Thanks for your help!

Jaime

I am a mixed type, also.  This is a little "advanced" but my "quick" breakfast is a cup of tea with raw cream, 1 teaspoon raw cocao, 1/2 teaspoon mucha green tea and 1 tea bag of Tulsi tea.  This contains 4 things "good" for you.  You could get by with only 1 of the "Tea" items plus the cream.

I also have about 6 to 8 oz of keifer and about 6 to 8 oz of fresh vegetable juice.

I add to the Veg juice some raw cream, some virgin olive oil and 1 or 2 raw free range eggs.

Sometimes i add vinalla, some nutmeg and some stevia, it then tastes like a green egg nog.

This contains your fat, carbs and protein in one drink.  It will take time to work up to it.

The juice takes time to make ahead of time: but it can be done.  The juice information is on this forum.

This is quick and keeps you from being hungry for several hours and gives you energy and protects your  "innerds" from bad bugs.

 

Good Health,

Don
