Prism Meal Ideas:
With a 1300 calorie day, I try to divide it like so:
Breakfast: 250-300
Lunch: 350-400
Snack: 100-150
Dinner: 500-600
I do not eat after 8:00 PM.
If I am working out, I try to add another snack in there.
***************************************************************

244

Black Beans, 1/8 c. 40
1T Shredded cheese 28

Or…to make above salad like my favorite salad at RR, I use 2 T. of Gregg’s Ranch Dressing (140) and 1 T. of BBQ sauce (50). I usually reserve this for dinner, as it is higher in calories, or if I have had a smaller breakfast.

Thanks for posting this. There are some really great meal ideas in there, and it comes at the perfect time for me because I'm writing a couple of week long menus that I can follow and make sure I have the food on hand so I have no excuses.
Thanks for the ideas Kimi. That was quite a bit of typing. : )Isn't it empowering though to plan out in advance?
