Healthy lunch recipes for the office? Are you kidding me? You mean my living room that desperately needs some cleaning? Yes, that’s exactly what I mean. These are some easy and healthy lunch ideas for work, whether you work from home or actually go somewhere. If you’re trying to lose weight, great. If you’re not trying to lose weight – also great.

1. SHREDDED CHICKEN BOWLS

This recipe is fresh, flavorful and low carb, but in a very healthy way. With some roasted vegetables, cooked shredded chicken and a salad this lunch bowl is satisfying and easy to meal prep.

2. GARLIC AVOCADO GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH

Use wholegrain bread to make this more nourishing, or if you’re gluten-free/low carb/paleo – use the type of bread that works for you! This recipe is super easy and it’s super tasty – I had it for dinner recently with my tomato cucumber salad and it was perfect.

3. COCONUT CURRY SHRIMP SOUP

It’s getting colder and there’s nothing better than warming up with some soup! This one is a spicy, fresh and flavorful coconut curry shrimp soup. It’s low carb and it’s light and just perfect for lunch. I love it with lemon grass in there, but if you don’t have lemon grass, you can also use lime leaves. Love those too!

4. MEDITERRANEAN SALMON SALAD

recipe is the perfect summer dinner idea. Filled with a ton of roasted and fresh vegetables, pan-seared salmon and some feta cheese, this easy low carb recipe is full of flavor, antioxidants and it’s just delicious. Also easy to meal prep for the week!” width=”742″ height=”1113″ />

If you love salmon and the Mediterranean diet, you’ll love this delicious healthy salmon recipe. The ingredients include salmon (I just cooked mine in the air fryer), feta cheese, arugula and roasted peppers. To speed things up, you can definitely make the salmon and the roasted vegetables ahead, as well as wash and chop the fresh vegetables.

5. 15-MINUTE QUINOA WITH CHICKEN

If you’re like me and cook a bunch of things ahead like quinoa and chicken, you’ll be able to whip this super tasty dish for lunch (or dinner) in no time. Don’t worry if you don’t have quinoa or kale or any of the ingredients – use what you have. For example rice would work instead of quinoa, spinach would work instead of kale, you get the point – empty the fridge and make something delicious using simple ingredients!

6. THE 5-MINUTE MEDITERRANEAN BOWL

This is one of my most popular recipes and no wonder – it happens to be one of my go to recipes. It’s super easy, quick and full of flavor! Great for meal prep too if you want to make everything from scratch. If you’re short on time – you can buy all the individual parts and use cherry tomatoes and a chopped cucumber instead of salad.

7. 10-MINUTE CHICKEN QUESADILLA WITH FETA CHEESE

8. LOW CARB TASTY AVOCADO CHICKEN SALAD

This is a super tasty and easy avocado chicken salad and it is one of my favorite chicken salad recipes. It’s super flavorful, fresh and filling.

9. CHICKEN EGG BAKE

If you’re often on the go and don’t have time to eat over the sink during your 5 minute lunch break, you might consider mixing a bunch of things together in a bowl and baking them. Without sugar. With chicken and vegetables instead. That would be one disgusting banana bread….But no, it’s not banana bread – it’s an egg bake. You can use any smaller baking pan you have at home to make this delicious egg bake. It’s filled with vegetables, cooked chicken and it’s super easy to make. The recipe says breakfast, but you can eat it any time you’re hungry for something savory – it’s perfect for lunch, great to meal prep as well.

10. VEGAN QUESADILLA WITH CHICKPEAS

Another quesadilla recipe! Fill this one with chickpeas, herbs and vegetables spread the mixture on one half, fold and toast on both sides in a pan. Serve with some guacamole, salad – anything fresh! It’s an easy, quick and delicious vegan lunch.

Pasta salads

Pasta is a portable lunch staple and is equally delicious served cold in a pasta salad or quickly reheated in a microwave. Cook once, eat three times with our easy meal prep pasta ideas, allowing you to make three different dishes – salmon pasta, chicken pasta and aubergine pasta – in one go, ready to pop in the fridge when you need some midday fuel.

Rice salads

Choose high-fibre brown rice to keep you feeling satisfied all afternoon. Our easy meal prep rice recipes are designed to give you two delicious lunches in just one prep session.

Exotic salads

Salads are one of the quickest and easiest lunches to throw together – just pop everything in a bowl, give it a mix and go. With almost endless flavour combinations, they’re also a great way to mix up your midweek menu and stave off lunchtime boredom. Experiment with using different leaves, grains or pulses as your base, layer up the toppings with colourful fruit and veg, protein-rich meat, fish, tofu or eggs, then amp up the flavour and texture with nuts, seeds, herbs, spices and dressings. Be inspired by our favourite healthy salad recipes.

Protein pots

Protein is an important part of a balanced diet. If you’re looking to increase your protein intake from time-to-time, our homemade protein pots make for a perfect snack or light lunch, and all contain around 30g protein

Homemade wraps

Flatbreads and tortillas make a great alternative to bread, or you could use crisp lettuce leaves if you’re looking to cut the carbs. Protein-rich chicken and fish make great filling options, or pile on the veggies for a lunchtime nutrient hit.

Sandwich ideas

Forget soggy sarnies – our filling pittas, club sandwiches and toast toppers are packed with delicious, nutrient-dense ingredients that are sure to hit the spot. Pack up the ingredients separately and assemble at your desk for a super fresh open sandwich.

Portable soups

To avoid leakage, pop in a thermos flask with a tight seal. If you can make use of a microwave during your lunch break, you could batch-cook soup, freeze in Tupperware (that’s suitable for the freezer and the microwave), then thaw and reheat when you want to eat.
