Soba Noodle Lunch Box

September 3, 2019 Amanda Plott

I’ve found lately that meal prepping my lunches has been my saving grace. If it wasn’t for preparing my lunches for a few days in advance, well… I’d be making some rather poor choices when it came time to eat. Getting back into the rhythm of ‘back-to-school’ has been a tougher transition this year than I had imagined.

This Soba Noodle Lunch Box is asian inspired with soba noodles, spiraled veggies, and of course a homemade Thai peanut dressing that is finger-licking good. Not only can you make this lunch box up ahead of time, you can also rest easy knowing the entire lunch is only 250 calories and vegetarian!…

Hawaiian Lunchbox

So back about a week ago when I was off on my ‘girls camping trip’ we all stopped by a local grocery store there. They happened to be handing out samples of some new ‘aloha turkey’ in the deli section which you KNOW I immediately fell in love with. I knew pretty much instantly that I was going to have to get my hands on some of that turkey once I got home and to make something fun with it.

There you go! That’s the inspiration behind this Hawaiian Lunchbox!…

Skinny Buffalo Chicken Lunchbox

This is a short and not so sweet one today. Not sweet at all. In fact, it’s rather spicy! As we’re getting closer to the start of the school year, I’m doing my best to come up with fun and delicious lunchbox ideas for parents and kids alike. This Skinny Buffalo Chicken Lunchbox is one of my newest favorites.

With being quick and easy to make, this low carb, gluten-free, keto friendly lunch is a real winner, winner, chicken… lunch. I loaded this lunchbox up with plenty of fresh veggies and just as much buffalo chicken. And don’t think for a second that I left out the blue cheese or ranch…

Low Carb Keto (Meal Prep) Taco Salad

December 3, 2017 Amanda Plott

Sunday is for meal prepping! Meal prepping is one of the best and easiest ways to set yourself up for success with healthy eating through the week. It's easy to find an excuse not to cook meal after meal. But, it's hard to find one when you've already put in all the hard work and effort.

My mom and I are planning to go low carb and keto for a month, starting tomorrow. So today I'm busy getting some things ready for the week to come. This week, our lunch will be these Low Carb (Meal Prep) Taco Salads. The idea came from my mom actually! When we were discussing low carb and keto friendly options she mentioned a specific way that she used to like eating healthy at a local tex-mex restaurant...

Deli Snack Box

March 28, 2017 Amanda Plott

As if you couldn't tell, I'm a snacker, y'all. I love snacky little plates and boxes that give me a variety of things to enjoy so that I don't get bored with what I'm eating. Whether is actually a snack or a lighter meal is always debatable since we all need and want different things as snacks and meals. Me? I like BIG snacks or small meals. And this Deli Snack Box is just that!

So, I'm calling this a 'snack' box because it would really be good as a pre or post workout 'fill me up', but honestly it's nearly filling enough to take the place of a lighter on-the-go meal. It's somewhere between snack and meal, which is exactly where I wanted to be today...
