4 No-Cook Lunch Ideas

4 No-Cook Lunch Ideas

In theory, Sunday meal prep is a great idea; you make a list, hit the grocery store, and buy everything you need to make a week’s worth of homemade meals, however, things don’t always work out as planned. Whether it’s a busy schedule, a weekend away, or you’d just rather be doing other activities, we don’t always have time to prep homemade meals from scratch.

Fortunately, packing a healthy lunch doesn’t need to be complicated if you’ve got the right ingredients on hand. In fact, you can pack a healthy lunch that will last all week in the fridge in your DALCINI™ Stainless steel lunch containers without even turning on the stove! So, here are 4 simple no-cook lunch ideas that you, and even the kids, are sure to love.

 1. Sushi + Snap Peas + Oranges

 These days it is easy to find pre-made sushi in most grocery stores and, depending on your preference, you can find both fish and vegetarian options. By opting for rolls with fish you can help add some much-needed protein to your lunch, while vegetarian options will keep well in the fridge for multiple days. Paired with some fresh veggies and fresh fruit for dessert,  this sushi lunch box is a simple no-cook lunch idea that can save you a ton of time and money as opposed to ordering out.

All of the goodness of a falafel plate in one little box? Don’t mind if I do! Falafels can be found in the frozen or prepared section of most grocery stores, and they are a great source of plant-based protein thanks to their chickpea base. Not to mention, when paired with fresh veggies and dip they create both a flavorful and fun lunch to eat!
