One of the most popular food ideas that started trending last year was lettuce wraps. They are a great healthy alternative to traditional wraps which can be quite high in calories. You can still fill them with yummy ingredients that will brighten up your lunchtime. And don’t forget to add a low-fat dressing (I love a miso flavored one personally) to make them even tastier. You will feel like you are eating an actual wrap, but you will definitely be cutting down on your calorie and carb count. They are easy to eat, and if you make them at home, you won’t have to do anything to prepare them at the workplace. Here are some ideas for lettuce wraps recipes.

You could also make some mushroom fried rice if you are looking for a healthy lunch idea to eat at the workplace. Making it yourself ensures it’s created with healthy ingredients. Rice doesn’t take long to make, and you can pack it easily to eat at work. Use brown rice to make it healthier than using traditional white rice; brown rice is full of protein and fiber. You can mix up the veggies as well as add in scrambled egg for more protein. You could also experiment with low carb cauliflower rice.
Hopefully, these lunch ideas will help you to maintain a healthy weight; and give you great energy to maintain a positive attitude at work.
