My wife and I have been doing the South Beach diet and it works great,
particularly for me since I am a Type II diabetic. However, the
recipes in the book are expensive and not that easy to make. It worked
out for us because I have not been working the past couple of weeks
and I could make breakfast, pack my wifes lunch and snacks etc, all
following the SB recipes. Well, I'll be going back to work and and
won't be so easy anymore. I need some recipes, suggestions etc that we
can follow and that are compatible with having a job

Buy some ziplock bags, some marinades, or make your own.  Marinate whatever
meat/fish/poultry you want for dinner while you're at work (in the bag).  Grill
it while roasting some olive oiled vegetables at 425 F in the oven.  Or have it
over a huge plateful of mixed baby greens with some nuts, olives and goat or
blue cheese.

Very quick and easy.  Pesto on shrimp dumped onto a big salad is good, too.
So's chicken.

Crockpot chili can be cooked all day while you're at work. Do any measuring and
chopping the night before.

I bake some chicken breasts on the weekend and make chicken salad (mayo,
celery, green onions and sugar free relish-- Mount Olive makes some with
Splenda) to keep in the fridge, as well as whipping up sauces to go on them
(I'm still tinkering with a version of my green chili/sour cream sauce; I'll
post it when I'm pleased with it).  I also keep omega-3 eggs boiled in the
fridge, for making egg salad.
