Lunch is satisfying. My spouse's soups he makes are delicious and pretty filing. He is the master of spicing food. I get my dose of beans/rice at lunch, plus lots and lots of vegetables.
But I will miss my eggs and meat. (Fish is out too).
Dairy is fine. I almost feel like I am being dairied to death. I do like Dannielle's cottage cheese suggestion though. I also like the idea of eating out a time or two a week. I confess that I have gone to the local Chinese food buffet and got take out chicken sticks, which I freeze and eat later. But to be true to my agreement I don't think that I should be hiding food in the freezer.

I've found a recipe for scrambled tofu that is a great subsitute for scrambled eggs, doesn't taste like tofu at all, and the texture is spot on. It can be found on the The Post Punk Kitchen website. (http://www.theppk.com/2009/10/tof-u-...ofu-revisited/) You may want to look at some of her other recipes, they are vegan, so no problem with the hubby. I'm eat partially vegetarian (I eat fish and chicken occasionally) and I've found many of her recipes very satisfying.

+1 for the Post Punk Kitchen. Neither DH nor I are vegetarian/vegan, but we've found some amazing recipes on there!

I would never have guessed mushrooms were high in protein. Thanks! I love mushrooms.
We toast pumpkin seeds in an iron pan for snacks. I have to watch myself--love those things.Trek Madone 4.7 WSD

Potatoes are my nemesis. I can't eat them. I've got to stay away from too much starch.
