LAC21 Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 I'm a school teacher and only get 18 minutes for lunch. I need some ideas for lunches that I can eat quickly. I'm on day 12 and have had a salad everyday so far. (Getting pretty sick of them at this point). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated it! Thank you!

MeadowLily Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 All Breakfast ideas translate to Lunch, too. Everything is mix and match. Bake up white and sweet potatoes. Take your homemade or compliant salsa, your shredded protein, avocado or mayo. Reheat the tata with protein and add the other fixin's on top. Voila. Three minutes tops and 15 minutes to eat. If you remember the One Potato Two Potato joints, potato was the base and anything else you wanted on top. Cayenne Pepper, fresh herbs and the like. They were delish. Cooked broccoli or fajita type vegetables, the sky is not the limit with your proteins. Portable. Doable. Food boredom...control alt delete.

Administrators ladyshanny Posted September 9, 2016 Administrators Share Posted September 9, 2016 Hi, @LAC21 - leftovers are highly popular. Lots of us don't even bother to heat them up. Here's a post where I listed all the google searches that will show you awesome ideas and suggestions for lunch ideas that don't take tonnes of time/microwave.

ChristyJ Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 You could make chicken or egg salad with either the homemade mayo recipe or avocado mayo paired with cut up veggies and some olives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stacey2514 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Maybe a burger patty (I tend to use turkey) with veggies and avocado. Keep it simple - you could switch up the salad to other veggies of choice with a protein and healthy fat. Or make larger dinners so that you always have leftovers to bring for lunch.

boberrymom Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I make 1/2 can of tuna mixed with 2 tbsp guacamole and eat that on top of cucumbers. You could scrape the seeds out and make a cute little boat. Hope you get some more ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
becs Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 This is one of my go-to lunch ideas - I make a batch on Sunday and throw it on top of spinach for lunch, with some extra veggies on the side: http://nomnompaleo.com/post/108235360133/whole30-day-16-madras-chicken-salad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
