Briwb rice for a meal?? Just to be :filled up:??
Jesus! Empty carb land.
Next... Lets see, fat and more quick carbs.
And then..the standby (what I use as a last resort, due to the crap they often make these bars with, for fats and "no carb" carbs).

They make freezer cold packs for lunch pails. Walmart carried them and so do most large home goods retailers, as well as grocery stores. I buy ice cube trays, producing long thin cylinders of ice that fit nicely into protein shakers. I make up my shakes at home, making sure I don;t fill it more than 3/4ths, and throw in one of these cubes. Keeps the drink pretty cold for a couple of hours because of the density of the protein drink. I bought a wide mouthed 32 oz water bottle (Nalgene), with a screw cap top. I also found an insulated cover for it. Voila, cold shake, about 1.4 meals worth. Into my shake goes whey, skim milk and water, various evil tasting herbs, a little psyllium or flax, ground up, rice or oat bran and a tablespoon of EVO.
The foil packed salmon, tuna, cod, and halibut are very good - you can get them in a variety of flavors. I cook up a quick batch of chicken breasts the day before and have two. I slice up veggies that morning, takes me all of 5 or 8 minutes to slice up cucs, tomatoes, couple large mushrooms, celery, half a pepper. I buy tinned turkey on occasion (not too bad a taste), I open it drain it, and throw in a little flavored mustards, put it in a baggie. I add a handful of dry roasted seeds or a few nuts. I buy washed salads, rerinse it, spin dry it (in a cool spin dryer for this purpose), throw in a couple of vinagrette packs. Napkins, forks, and there ya go, 3 meals worth. Low carb, moderate fat and very decent proteins. Sometimes I make up tuna salad or eggs salads as well (sans bread, I use low carb high fiber pita pockets.
