i eat when i stress. really. and my longer commute eats into my homemade lunch time. its easier to buy something than to get up extra early to chop up a salad and put it in a container. my body is sponsored by teriyaki chicken.

Teriyaki chicken will make you fat…
Add roasted chicken… shredded chicken thighs are great.
I also take a cue from the French and add things like: blanched, crisp tender haricot vert; sliced boiled new potatoes or fingerling potatoes; garbanzo beans; frisée; lardons; cherry tomatoes; 7 minute eggs… chop everything up small and eat it with a spoon. Traditional French vinaigrette, or olive oil and lemon. Season all the ingredients separately, before you add them to the salad.
You can make a salad that absolutely does not suck.
