🥙 Mediterranean salad with chicken kabobs and rice
🥗 Grilled chicken with Greek salad and quinoa
🥪 Turkey and ham sandwiches with apple-feta-walnut salad
🍝 Beef lasagna with mixed greens
🍝 Pasta with meat sauce and a fresh salad

🥐 Bread, butter, jam, and peanut butter
🍳 Hard-boiled eggs
🥣 Cereal, milk, and soy/almond milk
