1.Big salad:
I love to get creative with my salads to mix it up. Salads are such a great way to get alllll the nutrients into a meal. Here are some of my favorites…
- Romaine, mixed greens, garbanzo beans, jalapenos, olives, sunflower seeds, feta, olive oil, lemon, and pink salt
- Mixed greens, sunflower seeds, goat cheese, apple, pecans, olive oil, pink salt and pepper
- Romaine, sunflower seeds, grilled chicken, cucumber, tomato, Tesseme’s caesar dressing
2.Soup:
Lately (during the winter months), I have been loving soup from Lakewinds (local co-op). It’s pre-made and they put it in big containers for $9.99. It lasts me about 3 lunches and is full of organic nutritious ingredients. Such a time saver! Or you could prep soup ahead of time for the week (or freeze it for future).
3.Snack plate:
This tends to be my go to when I am running low on groceries! Some examples:
- Raw veggies, hummus, corn chips, beef stick or Applegate deli meat, and an apple
- Crackers, goat cheese, an orange, olives, and a bar (I like Lara bars best) or nuts.
4.Leftovers:
Biggest time saver! If you’re already cooking the night before, might as well make some extra for the next day. Simple as that 🙂
5.Avocado toast:
If you are home for lunch, can’t go wrong with avocado toast. This is how I love mine: english muffins, ghee, avocado, everything but the bagel seasoning, pink salt, tomato, and fresh squeezed lemon. If I have more time, I will add fried or scrambled eggs and no lemon.
Enjoy!
