So whats for lunch? Perhaps its a grilled cheese (yes a low carb one!), some warming soup, a wrap, a tasty salad, a quesadilla, or a stuffed avocado there are SO many options to choose from!

Low Carb Lunch Ideas At Work

What about if you usually have lunch at work? What you eat probably depends on whether you have a microwave, and how organized you are to prepare food in advance. If you have access to a microwave, then you have a lot of options available to you for example you could make a low carb lasagnaat the weekend, then portion it out for the week. If you love soup then get yourself a decent soup thermos and load it up before you head out for the day. Perfect for leftovers!

If you only have cold lunch options, try a sort of bento box! Here are some great low carb ideas that you might already have in the fridge:

  • hard boiled eggs
  • lettuce wraps
  • leftover roast chicken or turkey
  • radishes
  • sliced cheese
  • low carb tortillas or wraps
  • pickles
  • cooked bacon
  • tuna mayonnaise
