Need easy lunch ideas!

I am only on Day 3, and I am getting tired of a salad every day for lunch. Any other ideas of what I could have? I don't like tomatoes, so anything with those would not work for me.

Thanks!

Thanks Linda!!!

Now I have a really silly question for you, but I'm not a very knowledgeable cook...how do I poach chicken breasts? I get scared of not cooking my meat enough, so I want to make sure I do it right!

Poached Chicken Breasts
chicken broth (you can also use white wine)

In a non-aluminum pan, bring broth to a boil. Immediately reduce heat to a simmer (don't let them boil as this will make them tough and hard), defrosted chicken breast cutlets and poach them 20 ~ 25 minutes until chicken is cooked through but still moist and tender. Remove chicken and keep warm.

I even tak them frozen and do the same this I just cook them longer.

Very easy.

You can Google recipes and will find many.
