Lunch Ideas

My work week lunches. I typically pre make half sandwhichs. I use a sprouted wheat or whole grain bread. And turkey lunch meat. I put them in sandwhich bags and into a freezer ziplock and into the freezer. Then in the morning before work I just grab it (plus I buy preservative free lunch meat from Costco- I couldn't finish it all fresh before it would go bad so freezing it makes more sense for me). It's thawed out in my lunch bag with freezer packs by lunch.

I usually have a small salad and a piece of fruit with lunch.

Weekends. Today I'm baking chicken breast, curbing up sweet potatoes, and going to sauté zucchini.

Weekday you could double your recipes (or triple) for dinner to have enough to eat for lunch as well.

My hubby likes to make a big batch of ground turkey on Sunday and then eat that with cooked veggies.

Lunches are either a half sandwich with a smallish salad on the side, a larger salad with protein (eggs, cubed meat or cheese), a whole sandwich with veggies either in it or on the side, soup with added veggies (any left overs that fit well with the flavour of soup) or left-overs from the night before. For a mid-afternoon snack, I have the fruit I packed for lunch.

ETA: those are work day lunches. On weekends I tend to "brunch" with fruits, eggs, cooked or cold cereals, sometimes toast with deli meats or cheeses.
