Lunches To Go

 
Even if you are not home for lunch, you can still eat well if you do a little advanced planning.  Be creative and think out of the box.  Lots of leftover foods taste great cold, such as meatloaf.  You will need to buy a thermos bag and ice packs to keep your food cold, if you don't already have them.  Purchasing a wide-mouth thermos is also a good idea so that you can take either hot (soups/stews) or cold  liquidy (smoothies) foods with you.  It is also great to have things such as frozen muffins, breads and cookies in the freezer to put in your lunch.  They will be thawed by the time you eat them.  Make lunch fun, delicious and healthy.  I like to pack a fresh fruit and veggie with lunch.  Be sure to select produce that is in season, buy organic for those most contaminated produce items, and eat your fruit first.  Here are some lunch ideas to get you started.
