Ten Lunch Ideas that Spark Joy

There are so many great lunch ideas here! Technically, we’re talking more than ten, but you get the idea. Inspiration for stepping up to the everyday lunch challenge.


1. Easy Pita Lunch Ideas(Love & Lemons)

Four brilliant pita-centric lunches I want to eat right now. Easy to pack in lunch boxes & quick to pull together. Think smashed avocado and sunflower seeds, and red pepper hummus with chickpeas. Get the recipes here.

2. Vegetarian Lunch Ideas: One Sauce / Three Ways(101 Cookbooks)
Three on-the-go type lunches that don’t require reheating based on a single favorite tomato sauce. Tweak the main sauce a bit day by day, and create a pasta bowl (day one), a lazy chana masala (day two), and a spicy dipping sauce for quinoa patties (day three). Get the recipes here.

5. Cold Soba Noodles(101 Cookbooks)
The sort of thing I like to take on flights. Nearly everyone loves noodles, here they’re paired with tofu matchsticks, and a favorite shallot-ginger paste. Looking at the shot now, I think I’ll add some edamame the next time around. Get the recipe here.

7. Rainbow Spicy Tofu Sushi Burritos(Bojon Gourmet)
We make sushi burritos all the time, and Alanna’s version is fantastic. You really don’t need special equipment to make them, and everyone can put as much or as little of each filling as they want. Sushi burritos are travel-friendly, filling, and you don’t need a plate or utensils to enjoy them. Get the recipe here.
