Healthy and Quick Lunches

Packing a lunch for work will not only save you money, but it can also save you tons of calories by avoiding fast food restaurants and unhealthy entrees. Most of us get bored with eating a sandwich every day and are looking for a variety of lunchtime options.

Try some of these healthy lunch ideas that require little preparation the night before:

  • Whole-wheat couscous with chick peas or black beans
  • Whole-wheat tortilla filled with grilled, skinless chicken breast, mushrooms, onions and tomatoes
  • Baked potato topped with broccoli, low-fat sour cream, low-fat cheddar cheese and salsa
  • Spinach salad with pears, red onion, and low-fat feta cheese
  • For more information on healthy menu ideas, consult a registered dietitian and visit our Eat Right Nutrition Tips page.
