What’s Cooking: Lunchbox Round-up

Falafel lunchbox

If you follow me on Instagram you’ll know I love a packed lunch.  Bringing lunch to work saves me money and keeps me healthy. But not everyone feels they can do this.  We’re all super busy and making your own lunch can sometimes seem like another job to fit into an already over-packed schedule.  I get it – no judgement.  We’re all just doing our best.  That’s why for this week’s blog post I thought it might be fun to share some of my go-to lunchbox ideas from the blog via my Lunchbox Round Up.  Let’s get cracking!

Vegan Tuna WrapVegan Tuna Wrap

My Vegan Tuna Wrap was one of my earliest posts and still one of the most popular.  The clean, fresh flavours and simplicity of the wrap means this lunchbox idea is always a winner.  What’s more, the vegan tuna recipe makes a bucket-load meaning you can make it on Sunday and the whole family can have this scrumptious filling for lunch all week.

This lunchbox idea is a great way to showcase how a little food prep can go a long way.  Pickled veg salad, some pre-cooked rice, chickpeas and a little fresh baby spinach is all you need to create a delicious yet nourishing lunchtime meal. Bloody brilliant!

This last lunchbox has to be my all-time fave!  Each component can be made ahead of time and stores well in the fridge.  My falafel lunchbox is a moreish, satisfying meal that’s yummy enough to impress even the most jaded omnivore. 😉  If you only try one of my lunchbox ideas make it this one – you won’t regret it.
