[yungone501]

Sure Im not the only one out there that could use some more ideas about better foods on the go. Please list all your favorites and suggestions. I work 10 hours a day/6 days a week and I have worn out all my combo's. Hopefully you guys can give me something good.

By the way, Im an ecto going for bulk.

London broil, WTF is that?

Really looking for some good small 500cal meals. My target is 4k cals a day and I divide it between 8 meals @ 500cal ea. So, some 500cal meal ideas would be nice.

No better protein snack IMHO.

Also, get some BCAA caps, or make your own and supplement them between meals.

London broil is a very lean cut and somewhat affordable. Personally, it is the only beef "staple". It is similar in location on the animal and in texture to brisket, which is the cow's pectoral muscle. The difference in the cuts being that the flank (London Broil) has a very defined grain, so while it's not a tender piece of meat, by cutting across the easily visible grain after cooking - it becomes easily chewable without the high fat/marble content of other tender cuts. This becomes an even better on-the-go choice if you marinate it in some sort of citrus (I like lime/chilis/cilantro/garlic) as the acidity does not tenderize the meat itself but creates enzymes when combined with our own saliva to break down the meat quickly when chewing. Let's recap: Marinate, broil, grill, or pan sear, cut against the grain, Tupperware up, and never eat beef jerky again.

where can one get London Broil, does pretty much every supermarket sell it like wal-mart?

LOL, wtf? Tuna/mayo? Cottage cheese/milk?

Shit man, why not just snack on a jar of PB all day long?

Preferably more "sensible" meals please.

But hey, thanks for tryin'.

Lean deli slices of turkey rolled with pureed avocadoes/salt/pepper/diced tomatoes and mixed greens. Easy to scarf. High pro/EFA. Whole grain tortillas if you must.

Even though it's the ONLY one so far, I like it.

but is that 500 cals ??? maybe 2-3 of them?

[elpropiotorvic]

fat free mayo, fat free italian dressing, 1 can of tuna and meat of choice (i use a vegetarian meat replacement that looks like a burger patty,) if u work physical job add two slices of bread,

1 LARGE SALMON FILLET (the one u get like 4 portions out of it and u buy in the fish market or the meat sections, no frozen bull)

bake in oven sprikled with olive oil, onion chopped on top and lime for 20 min, cut some lettuce, red pepper, onion, add dressing of choice and put into a wrap, and makes for about 3 or 4 big fajitas

[peachfuzz]

i like brown rice and lean ground turkey with hot sauce in tupperware.

[Damienm05]

Yeah, you gotta use like 4 slices for sure, 1/2 an avocado. It's a good, clean 30g of pro.

Another one I do a lot to take to work with me is lean ground turkey sauteed with lots of fresh herbs onions, carrots, and celery. Then I mix that with salted, steamed cauliflower. It reminds me of a comforting home-style meal, though it's quite the opposite. Ultimately quick/easy to down. Umm, let's see.... some other good ones:
-O*mega-3 hard-boiled eggs with smoked salmon and whole grain mustard- this meal is jam-packed w/ pro and good fat.
-Cold Veggies w/ Hummus and chicken grilled with coriander/cumin/oregano/paprika. Chop the chicken, mix into Hummus (ideally made with EVOO and natural ingredients) and then use raw celery/brocolli/carrots to dip. This is a really good portable snack. Again, it's got more of what you need than just protein. Probably my favorite.

I get really into my diet as a hobby but you don't have to. If all else fails, roast beef and sliced turkey breast is perfect for pro-on-the-go.

I think fat free cottage cheese and skim milk would be better?

Damn, a bit harsh aren't we Baseline? You never specified which mayo or bread types here...aren't there bad one's? Hmm, yes. As far as the milk/cottage chesse goes, once again- good milks, bad milks. Plus who the f*ck wants to drink clumpy ass milk? Sensible= appealing to the senses.

Now, back to adulthood.......
