Simple steps to grab a healthy Lunch

brown_lunch_bag.jpgWe all know that a lunch every day bring us will save money and calories, but it's all about sticking to it and to make healthy choices.

You must plan ahead, spend an extra five to ten minutes and then the packed lunch packaging, safe transport.

Lunch to work I spend my almost every day, so I will share with you some quick tips that I have learned.

Decide what you will eat for lunch. A few of my favorite lunches garbanzo beans are: salad with tuna and a light vinaigrette dressing or High fibre wrap with hummus and vegetablesLeftovers of dinner in a reheatable container or leftovers placed on top of salad or soup/greensHomemade stewSandwich thins whole wheat bread with a thin spread of Turkey and pesto nitrite freeInterchange your snacks or sides. Try Greek yogurt, fruit, small handful of nuts, baby carrots/raw vegetables, beet hummus, whole grain crackers, reduced fat cottage cheese and low fat string cheese.Creating a laundry list of items that you need for your lunch. Per on your shopping trip, make sure to obtain the necessary objects.Pack your lunch the night before. You will much more likely to stick to the packing of your lunch, you do not have to do it during the morning rush.Use a lunch bag that is isolated and always grab a ice pack. Food will remain safe for up to four hours left in the temperature danger zones. Using an ice pack and insulated lunch bag will help to extend this time somewhat. I use a collapsible lunch bag that I can fold up and put in my wallet for convenience.

These are just the basics. The hardest part is changing your habits and behaviour. Please bear in mind that there is a greater payoff for the setting up your lunch to work is every day. If your goal is weight loss, can give you a few hundred calories, resulting in lost a pound by the end of the week. If your goal is to pack a lunch to eat healthy, can help to increase your fruit and vegetable intake.

You pack a lunch, and if you do, do you have any idea of the lunch for the rest of us?
