Costco Rotisserie Chicken (in the case where they keep the pre-made foods, I found a tray of 8 leg/thigh quarters for the same price as a single rotisserie chicken, which is awesome because post-sleeve I like dark meat better than chicken breasts, and they're easy to pop in a baggie and take to work in my lunch)

Sliced cucumbers and cherry tomatoes with a little white wine vinegar

Costco's Red Pepper Hummus with baby carrots

Costco's Guy Fieri Marinated Tri-tip -- protein for a week and then some!

Kroger Carb Master Yogurt

Jello SF Pudding Cups -- Creme Brule and Rice Pudding are amazing

Apples and Jif peanut butter singles

Any fruit or veggie with Babybel cheese

Ranch dip/dressing made with greek yogurt and a little milk -- you can add salsa and taco seasoning to make it Southwest Ranch

Broccoli Salad kits

I'm not going to list everything cause most are already on this thread, but I do want to add something I always try to have on my fridge --

Honey Baked Ham Smoked turkey - pre sliced - delicious. A three pound turkey roast is $24 or so, but it lasts me several weeks. I portion it out into zip baggies - keep one on the fridge and freeze the rest.

I think it tastes much better than regular deli turkey. Smear some spicy brown mustard and roll it for a quick snack when the munche**** or roll it around a cheese stick for a meal.
