What's
a good lunch to have when you are away from home?
This meal should be the most satisfying and biggest meal of
the day. And it's a good idea to include a starch of some
kind, but omit the protein (meat, eggs, cheese, nuts or seeds)
at this meal.
Now,
what's a starch? How about a potato prepared the way you like
it most? Or maybe some whole-grain bread or some quality pasta,
or even some brown rice along with some vegetables. I try
not to eat any raw onions or tomatoes at this meal. These
foods make it too hard for the starch digestive process.
I
feel a good point to remember about starches is that they
should have lots of color in them. Starches that are white
are trite ... almost totally void of nutrients. I keep this
in mind when I eat starches, especially when it comes to bread
... "the whiter the bread, the wider the spread, the
sooner I'm dead!"
The
benefit of eating the starch at this meal is it helps to
build that sustaining energy we need for the rest of the day.
It's one of those energy gaining and not energy draining foods
