When you're considering what to cook yourself for lunch at work one week from now, the criteria that you feel should be met can turn out to be overwhelming to the point that it turns into very simple to talk yourself out of cooking anything by any stretch of the imagination. Here are best dishes that you must try.
Get your mason jar and top it off with a spicy peanut dressing, soba noodles and a lot of crunchy vegetables. Keeping the dressing at the base of the jug, and the vegetables over the noodles prevents the salad from going wet. Essentially toss everything together when lunchtime moves around for a fresh Asian meal.
Baked Quinoa Falafel Pita
Making your own particular falafel is less demanding than it sounds. By baking, as opposed to deep frying the falafel, adding quinoa to the falafel patties and serving them in a wheat pita, you'll have effectively made a healthy twist on your most loved street food.
Wheat Berry Salad
This is an excellent, pre-winter serving of mixed greens, which is truly simple to prepare. Broil the vitamin-packed veggies, cook the nutty wheat berries and mix everything in a mustard dressing.
Black Bean, Avocado, Brown Rice, and Chicken Wrap
Recipes don't get any simpler than this dark bean and brown rice wrap. Rich with protein and complex carbohydrates, this is the ideal lunch to keep you energized throughout the evening. Don't hesitate to switch up the additional toppings as much as you prefer, including whatever meats or additional vegetables you're wanting.
Black Bean Couscous Salad
Couscous must be the least demanding grain to cook. Everything it needs is five minutes of soaking boiled water and it's prepared to go. Toss with dark beans, red pepper, parsley and a vinaigrette, and your meal is ready.
