Welcome, Margaret! Good to have you join us!
I like salsa on my eggs in the morning. I buy a brand from my refridgerated section so it's "fresh" and I love it! Would that work for you? You can also buy Canadian bacon (essentially just ham) to have with your eggs. That's what I had this morning.
I am not usually hungry mid-morning either - I just take a few mixed nuts with me to work and that's good enough.
Also, do you think the limit on the beans is for the carbs or a GI issue? After reading the SuperCharged book, I was thinking that the guideline was there to prevent some GI distress, so to speak I'm not sure though. I like beans in my salads but also pretty much any way I can eat them! The roasted chickpeas are so yummy! I like them with curry powder, but my kids won't eat them that way.
I will have to look at the dressing recipe you linked... I need something different for a change. I have some Spenda that I use in place of sugar. At some point I also want to look into Stevia per Brittone's rec in the other post.
