It's 12:50 p.m. and my stomach's growling.
I brought a Lean Cuisine with me, but it's really the last thing in the world I want to eat.
My alternative is to find someplace downtown that's quick. But I also want to stay healthy. A portion size that's not for two people would also be good.
Any suggestions on where to find a quick, healthy lunch in downtown Greensboro?

I ended up with a quick BLT (hold the mayo) and a side salad from Cincy's.
I realize bacon's not all that healthy, but the lettuce and tomato are. Hey, I could have gone for a lot worse!
There's always Subway and Chick-fil-a salads. Those are my staples. The Lean Cuisines don't keep me satisfied for long. Good luck on your weight loss!
Amy --
You will absolutely LOVE Zaytoon, located at the U.S. Trust building on Elm Street, just south of the Marriott. Healthy entrees and salads, fresh ingredients and very, very flavorful. I have been eating there three times a week since I relocated my office to downtown, and I am still losing weight. Can't be all bad! Also, it's about a 3-block walk from the N&R, so you will also gain some fitness benefits that way as well.
I'll have to try Zaytoon's some time.
The places I depend on regularly are Metro Gourmet (chef salad) & Natty Greene's (cobb salad). I used to get the steak ceasar salad at Cafe Europa once a week, but the quality of the meat went down & I don't go there any more. I've also started using the folks who deliver here at the N&R -- apple spice.
The only downside is that you have to order by 10:30 for noon delivery. Good stuff I've tried: cobb salad (not nearly as good as Natty's though), cashew chicken salad, chicken ceasar salad.
Best of luck to you in week 2!
