Looking for low-carb/no-carb ideas for lunch. Must be able to make the night before and take to work the next day. Any suggestions ?

    Not all carbs are created equal - but here is one of my to go lunches that's relatively low in that arena.

    2 boiled eggs
    1 gala apple
    1 Chobani Greek Yogurt

    This may or may not be enough calories for you, but it's filling and I have an afternoon snack so it works for me. If it's not enough, you might add another egg.

    If you've got a microwave at work then my suggestion would be chilli.

    Don't know about no-carb, but low carb is possible! Here's a good soup recipe that I love.

    My go to is grilled chicken breast on a salad, usually romaine and spinach, with a bit of cheddar cheese and whatever other veggies I have laying around, the amount of carbs overall is usually pretty low depending on what veggies you use. My only advice is to keep the cheese off til last minute, sometimes it gets gross if it sits on the salad overnight. I take a salad to work for lunch pretty much every day :)
