After ten months of great success with macrobiotics, I've been falling off the program a bit. My husband and I are active every evening with martial arts classes. Dinner at home has become a thing of the past.
We have been eating the same rice-veggie-tofu combinations for lunch over and over. We started relying on bean, lettuce and avocado burritos (no cheese) for convenient food when we were driving home at 8:30 or 9:00 p.m. and tired.
I need to find several new convenient lunch and dinner choices -- small snacks we can eat out of hand at work during the day and before or after martial arts training. Someone suggested brown rice balls stuffed with various fillings, though they didn't say what holds the rice together. Any other ideas?
After all, I can only eat so many burritos before I start looking like one <smile>.

Re: Fitting the Foods to Our Schedule
Tue, September 20, 2005 - 6:42 AMRice balls with a little umi paste in the middle will generally be nice and sticky (I also put in a little rice vinegar) and then I wrap it in a sheet of nori. And actually, it helps me to make them shaped like triangles a bit so I can wrap the nori better.
I also like a nice PBnJ sandwich on organic sourdough bread. :) -
