Recently, I was asked to contribute on an article about healthy office lunches, and I jumped at the opportunity because this is something I get asked almost every week. 

Here is a link to the article. 

I thought I would also put together a more comprehensive post with great office lunches including some that require a small amount of prep (the night before or on the weekend), and some that just require you to go to the supermarket and pick up the ingredients. 

Leftovers: 

Any leftovers from dinner are great to take for lunch the next day! 

Lunch options that require a small amount of meal prep: 

Slow Cooker Mexican Chicken Bowls - need to prepare ingredients and add them to the slow cooker the night before, that's it! 

Quinoa Salad - served with tuna or marinated tofu - need to make the quinoa salad ahead of time. 

Soba Noodle Salad - served with tinned salmon or tuna - need to make the soba noodle salad ahead of time. 

Salad with tuna and sweet potato - you just have to pre-cook the sweet potato ahead of time. 

Roast mixed veggies on a roll. Bake the veggies on the weekend and bring them to work with some cheese and a roll.   

Roast mixed veggies, slow cooked beef and jalapeño hummus served with baby spinach. Just prep the ingredients ahead of time. 

Hearty Minestrone Soup - served with some toast for a satisfying and warming lunch. 

Lunch options for no meal prep: 

Tuna and salad mix wrap - wraps, a tin of tuna and some salad mix. Avocado, hummus or feta would all work well for a spread on the wrap. 

A sandwich with veggies and lean meat. This one has ham, cheese, tomato and lettuce. 

Roast chicken with salad. Roast chicken, salad mix (or kale slaw), 1/2 tin of chickpeas, avocado and some dressing (I use balsamic and olive oil). So easy and so satisfying.   

Other ideas might be: 

• Tin of tuna or salmon, with a microwave rice cup and a salad mix
• Four bean mix with a small tin of corn and salad mix
• Soup (you can buy fresh soup from many supermarkets, or there are now heaps of different brands offering soups in pouches, which just need to be microwaved) with a grainy bread roll.
