| I'm tired of eating a sandwich for lunch and was wondering what were some good alternatives. I'm still in High School, so I usually eat lunch there, and I'm a vegeterian.

I'm in high school too...
I always eat sandwhiches for lunch! Mmm, I don't think I'll ever get tired of them lol.
What about a bagel with healthy jam?
Or soup?
Or pita, cucumbers and carrots, and some hummus to dip them in?
My friends sometimes eat pasta for lunch.

| I would think anything you have for dinner, could be leftovers for lunch? I'm about to make a three bean salad w/slivered almonds to have for my lunch for the next few days. Now that the weather's getting nicer, it's time for salads!

What's a vegetarian to you?
I ask because to me that always meant you didn't eat any meat. But people would say... "But they eat chicken and fish..."
Drove me nuts. Like that's not meat.
I was an ovo-lacto vegetarian, but I ate as little of the eggs and dairy as I could. Never considered being a vegan... no animal products at all.
(Right now I'm none of the above, but eat mostly all plant-based foods and always working toward less and less animal-based foods.)

just bread is good...like sourdough, or something else with some good seasonings on it from the bakery...
yogurt (or wait, can you not have that?)
all kids of fruit
crackers and lunch meat or peanut butter...
cereal's good sometimes...

Okay then, here's a few lunches I used to have!
- Carrot salad: Grated carrots, raisins, and just enough mayo to make it moist. (I guess the eggs in the mayo would make you an ovo-lacto v.)
- Rye Krisp crackers and cheese. I like Laughing Cow Low Fat cheese wedges.
- Canned peaches (drained) served over cottage cheese.
- Bush's vegetarian beans with bread or crackers

im confused...if you like carrots and raisins, why do you want an alternative?

| How about a coleslaw w/carrots and raisins and apple...you could just use apple cider vinegar and some sugar/splenda as the dressing, rather than mayo.

You could use any kind of low fat salad dressing. I use to put thousand island dressing in my ham salad or tuna salad to give it a zip.
