Would you believe me if I said there is such a thing as an Easy, Perfect Office Lunch?

Well there is…here is an example of a healthy and balanced packed lunch. Try this one out, and then use it as a springboard for your own creative lunch ideas. Don’t fall into the trap of eating the same thing day after day.

Here’s what you need…
For the wrap:

• 1 green tortilla
• 1 chicken breast (or your choice of protein: veggie patty, lean turkey, hardboiled egg, smoked salmon, grilled white fish, or baked tofu)
• Sliced tomato
• Romaine lettuce
• 1 Tablespoon hummus

For the veggies:

• 1/2 cup cut veggies (try broccoli, cauliflower, carrots and bell peppers)
• 1/4 cup hummus

For the yogurt:

• 1/2 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
• Handful of berries (strawberries and blueberries)For the trail mix:
• 1oz raw mixed nuts
• 5 golden raisins

1. Spread the tortilla with hummus, line with lettuce, tomato slices and chicken breast. Wrap and slice in half.
2. Wash and pack the cut veggies in plastic container. Pack the hummus in a small container.
3. Pack the yogurt in a small container and top with the berries.
4. Mix the raw nuts with the raisins and pack in a small container or bag.
5. Don’t forget to pack a container of water and a napkin!
