Hey guys! Happy Tasty Tuesday!

Let’s talk healthy lunches today, shall we?

I always pack lunch unless something really unexpected happens that prevents me from making my lunch the night before or putting it together from dinner leftovers.

VERY rarely would I go out or order take out for lunch. Not because I’m boring, no 🙂 Because I just like a good, homemade healthy meal 3 times a day. Or at least two (rain check for the chicken wings night 😉 ).

Anyway, I thought I’d share my 6 days and 4 weeks of healthy lunches with you today so you can see that it is possible to make and eat healthy lunches – every work day for four weeks. Why 6? Because you can eat water ever you want for lunch on Sunday and nobody is going to judge you 🙂

Here we go!

  1. Lena, how do you think of all those lunch ideas? I literally have eaten the same lunch for two or three years now….

  2. I tend to eat the same thing for lunch most days and don’t really branch out. Some of these look really great thanks for sharing!

  4. I think I want to eat some of your lunches! I definitely do leftovers but my standby favorites when I don’t have leftovers are tuna with avocado, veggies, & crackers, anything that I can put on top of a sweet potato, and a ginormous salad. That quinoa taco salad looks amazing, by the way! 🙂
