February 8, 2019 by Tommy's Superfoods Leave a Comment

If your days are full of work, school, or other activities, it can be easy to pick up fast food, a granola bar, or even just a cup of coffee for lunch.  Eeek!  Coffee for lunch…what does our body think of that?

We know that good food is what keeps you fueled up, and you shouldn’t have to sacrifice at lunch!

Here are some of our favorite veggie-centric ideas to keep you on the right track when it comes to meal prepping and healthy lunches.  Whether at home, at work, or packed in a bento box to go.  #ThinkVeggiesFirst.  Your body will thank you!

Veggie Potstickers

This lunch is perfect for meal prepping and taking on the go no matter where you spend your day: to school, work, or even the park!

Jackfruit is a great plant-based option for anyone looking to eat less meat, and these jackfruit and pepper kabobs from @corpsmanup1775 on Instagram are one of our favorite veggie-centric lunch ideas! With a little bit of heat and your choice of plate additions like rice, kabobs are perfect for anyone wanting a customizable lunch option.

Asparagus & Kale Grilled Cheese

We can all agree that a classic grilled cheese is a tasty choice for lunch, so why not jazz it up a little?! Just add Asparagus & Kale and goat cheese to your classic grilled cheese sandwich prep for a delicious and healthy spin on your sammy. Perfect for your lunchbox, and for the kids, add a layer of Vegetable Medley to traditional cheddar.

Power bowls are a perfect option for a simple, healthy lunch. You can add your choice of grains, like quinoa or brown rice, top with your favorite vegetables, and drizzle on your sauces of choice. This is another recipe that works great for meal prepping and taking to-go. Trust us, it’ll make all your lunchmates jealous.

Super Greens Grilled Cheese

This Super Greens grilled cheese is another way to add some greens to your lunch. You can keep it classic with cheddar, switch it up with a vegan cheese substitute, or follow our lead and add in Swiss. Whatever you decide, you’re on your way to a lunch that’s just a good tasting as it is good looking.

Another one of our favorite veggie-centric lunch ideas is a vegetable hash. Because it’s so easily personalized, you can make your hash for any taste and any meal. Just add in your favorite vegetables, toss with olive oil and salt and pepper (or any other spices you like), and cook on the stovetop for an easy and healthy lunch.

Fiesta Quinoa with Butternut Squash Noodles

This Fiesta Quinoa lunch is sure to start a plant-based party that will keep you going all day long. Just prepare the Fiesta Quinoa (you can find our recommendation here), chop the heirloom tomatoes in half, and add it all to the plate on top of butternut squash ribbons. To make your prep even easier, you can find pre-made butternut squash ribbons at your local grocery store.
