I'll tell you what, eating healthy takes time and budget management, so I am floundering right now. I hope to get my kitchen act together.
I have been trying to bring my own lunch, which is wonderful on so many levels, but I had to buy my lunch today and I bought Macro Vegetarian Thai Dumplings at the little store by the post office in Coffman Memorial Union.
Macro Vegetarian Thai Dumplings are not pictured here, but this is what their friends look like.What a happy plate! Yum! Flavorful, hearty and smells delicious too!
Plus the dish is macro-biotic and vegan with pretty great nutritional value.
The drag is that the meal cost $5.99. Not something to get everyday, but perhaps inspiration for meals to prepare at home. I guess that is less than the awesome salad bar at Coffman costs.
One other bonus is that if I took the stairs up and down to the East River Road to get to Coffman I burn some calories and build some muscle. How much money is that worth?
Soon these steps will be closed for the winter and I will watch people try to walk or slide cautiously down them from my office.

Is that new? I've never come across those in my vegetarian food foraging at the U. I'm glad there is another option for me and that one wouldn't require me to go outside in the winter!
They were new this fall, I think. That little shop has some really good for you treats mixed in with the pop and candy. It is the one by Starbucks. They have the most amazing granola selection too.
Some days, I wish my department was on the East Bank....
