Even if you are home for lunch you can pack a bag and eat out back under a tree or on your porch or if it is winter spread a blanket on the family room floor and have a picnic – it will bring back good memories of the summer past!
My favourite Lunches:
- A variety of fruit (apple, grapes, peach, cherries) and nuts (almonds and pecans)
- Sliced veggies (cucumbers, carrots, celery, peppers) with guacamole and corn on the cob.
Avocado Spread:
Take 1 ripe avocado with the juice of a lime and add:
- 2 tbsp finely chopped onion
- 2 tbsp fresh corn cut off the cob
- 2 tbsp bell pepper finely chopped
Mash well and use as a spread on a flax cracker or pita bread, or as a stuffing with your celery sticks.
Lunches:
Food that you have to carry to work or school is more of a challenge than when you eat at home in your own kitchen, so here is a list of some of the things I have found that will help you make carrying a lunch easier:
- Insulated Lunch BAG
- Stainless steel water bottle
- Thermos – one with a wide mouth (for soups or dips) and one with the smaller mouth (for smoothies and juices)
- Glass and food-grade plastic (remember plastic really only becomes harmful when you apply heat to it) for carrying your salads, dips and spreads
- Baggies with a zip lock top in a variety of sizes
