do you think this is a good lunch??

ok..so im trying to eat healthier things...for lunch i made a tortilla wrap..let me know what you think about it.... i use: carb balance tortilla wraps-wheat perdue chicken strips-italian flavor shredded lettuce sweet peppers shredded mozz cheese and a dash of hot sauce on it. i usually make 2 tortillas cause they are the small ones. do you think this is a good lunch???

why don't you type that into the recipie builder. things are either way better than i thought or way worse.. for example.. my brocolli mac, is actually worse in calories than the peppers, potato and egg sandwhichs i make. I use that recipie thing all the time since i refuse to make two dinners for me and my husband, and i know that i can just portion myself differently.  He's a VERY active contractor, and he wouldn't eat healthfood if i cramed it down his throat! and it helps me find alternatives, like red peppers are higher in nutrition than green, which i typically use. PLUS i like knowing i can eat something i really want to if i work my calories right, or take a reasonable portion.

But for the lunch, i would say, in my lunch world that would be too much. i usually eat a half a sandwhich with one piece of meat and 1 piece of cheese or a meal replacement bar. then yougurt and apples and tea through the day.. but that's because my dinners are higher in calories.  I would think the chicken strips being packaged would be very high in sodium, but i think one might be better.

since i'm bored at work lol i looked it up for you, based on what you typed, and i don't know what was fat free or how much, ect, it's about 450 calories... that was for 1 cup chicken, 1/4 cup cheese, the low carb wraps, 1/4 cup peppers, then everything else is like.. 0 calories.. i used the recipie builder. if lunch is your biggest meal- i guess that's cool right?

Calculate the calories in it to determine if it fits into your meal plan. As far as the nutritional content, it is a pretty well balanced meal. But it is hard for us to tell because we dont know the specific amounts of each item, etc.

But overall it looks great!

Sounds pretty healthy to me. Tortillas I would use wheat and make sure you use 1 serving of mozzarella cheese which I beleive is only 90 calories and  3oz of chicken. You should be okay as long as your staying in your calories intake and are not eating really high fat foods.This sounds like a healthy lunch. Enjoy:-)
