Today, I asked my friend Adrienne over at La Vita e` Bella to share a little something with ya all! I hope you enjoy.
Hello new friends!
I am so thrilled that Cate asked me to guest blog on her fabulous blog!
Hi! I’m Adrienne from La Vita é Bella! A 30 something lady blogging about all things beautiful and my journey through it all. I blog on a wide range of topics from daily musings to my favorite ideas for kitchen creations and home.
I am a teacher and wanted to share with you how I plan out my weekly lunches. The busy school day leaves only 25-30 minutes for lunch daily. A teacher’s lunch needs to be portable, healthy and have have enough staying power.
I try to include at least one of the following in my lunches:
- protein
- vegatable
- fruit
- snack
Variety is also key but sometimes if you anticipate a busy week, you can stretch out the same entree.
For instance, last Sunday I cooked up a batch of Greek Orzo Salad. You can find this amazing recipe on Peace, Love, and Good Food.
I had the salad daily which contained orzo (grain), olives, tomatoes, cucumbers (vegetable) and feta cheese (protein).
I added a little variety to my lunch everyday by adding some Fage Greek Yogurt with fruit, fresh berries and a Be Kind Bar for my snack.
For drinks, I start off my day with coffee and switch to water.
Here’s an example of what one of my lunches looked like:
Overall, wherever you work, you need a great lunch to keep you going throughout the day.
What are your favorite lunch picks?
Blessings,
Adrienne
