Pumpkin seeds are surprisingly good. I'm vegetarian, so losing peanuts and almonds is a problem...I've also purchased both pea based and whey based protein powders to see how I handle both of those.

Hard boiled eggs are something I've been trying to get into for a while, but I hate cooking in the morning before work.

Dude hard boiled eggs you can do two dozen at a time like two weeks ahead.

Ditto kleinbl00 on this. I make them six at a time and keep them refrigerated. I'll peel three before work and take them in a little plastic dish. Works pretty well and keeps me away from carbs two mornings each week.

Egg in one, a little ranch in another

Eleven dollars? I'm still using generic plasticware I got free when I opened a bank account in 2003.

Whatever makes you happy. I initially bought those things because the little one is actually perfect for oxy pads (which I put in my luggage) but then the rest of them hold like, food.

Update for you and WanderingEng. Tried it out last night. Now have two eggs, a tomato, spinach, and grape salad as a lunch. Looks really good, probably going to make it more of a regular occurrence.

Eggs, spinach, vinaigrette and slivered almonds are a dope-ass salad.

Can't have almonds anymore because I'm allergic to those, too :(

Dayum d00d that sux.

Yeah. Those aren't as bad as peanuts, but they make my mouth tingly and dry and cause nasal congestion. Too many almonds and it starts to replicate the peanut symptoms, which are much worse.

Losing tolerance to a food sux, for sure.

I didn't know about the peanut thing either. 'sokay. There's gonna be medicine for that in like a year.
