Pop it in your lunchbox

Working in the city? In an office? At your desk from 7am? No time for a lunch break? 

This is the reality for so many people now a days and it can mean meals become a chore.

Let’s be honest, finding ready-to-eat food out on the streets that ticks all the nutrition boxes is near impossible (if you have any recommendations, I’d LOVE to hear them!), whilst getting home in the evening to do a massive cook up for dinner AND the next day isn’t always the most appealing either. 

Here are a couple of tips:

1) Look to make your plate ½ different coloured vegetables, ¼ protein and the rest made up with grains and healthy fats (plants, nuts, seeds and fish are our best sources).

2) Tinned lentils, beans, chickpeas & fish can be great cupboard essentials as they vastly decrease preparation time. (Add in some fresh leaves/herbs, some veg from dinner, ¼ avocado, a squeeze of lemon and you’ll have a pretty wholesome gig to look forward to come lunchtime!)
