Are you still thinking that packing a lunch would hold you back from eating your favorite foods? It's time to set aside these beliefs. While ordering takeaway food, eating in cafes and restaurants or the work canteen can be convenient, bringing a packed lunch to work is far better for you in many ways.
Let's learn to love packed lunches.
Se tarjoaa sinulle terveellisemmän elämäntavan.
It doesn't hurt to cave in and enjoy the occasional serving of pizza and hot dogs. But if you're eating these foods all the time, your body probably feels ready for a change. With homemade lunch, you get to decide the portion size, and it also helps you avoid unhealthy sides, like junk food.
Se antaa sinulle enemmän valinnanvaraa.
The options for what to pack are endless - you will get much more fun than what you will find in your work/school cafeteria. Meanwhile, you can pack the food you really like, such as a piping hot thermos of your mom's chicken soup, hummus and pita bread, or some crisp, farm-stand apples.
Se säästää enemmän aikaasi.
Packing a lunch every morning can sound like a huge chore, but it doesn't have to be. You can have everything ready to be assembled ahead of time, like cooking up some chicken breasts, or slicing some vegetables - just a couple of hours on a Sunday evening is enough.
What's more, taking homemade lunch means that you don't have to waste precious time figuring where you want to eat, so you will have more time to eat and enjoy your lunch.
Se on halvempaa kuin kahvilan lounas.
Jatkuva ulkona syöminen rasittaa varmasti lompakkoasi. Useimmat kahvilalounaat maksavat noin 8 tai enemmän päivässä tai noin 2000 plus vuodessa henkilöä kohden (jos syöt ulkona joka päivä). Joten miksi ei vain pakata terveellistä ruokaa ulkona syömisen sijaan? Voit käyttää säästöjä mielekkäämpiin ja kiinnostavampiin asioihin, kuten lomalle.
Se vähentää jätettä käyttämällä ylijäämiä.
It is said that about one-third of the world's food is thrown away. Food waste has a huge impact on the environment, with almost 1.3 billion tons of food ending up in landfills where it rots producing harmful methane gas. So packing your own lunch is also beneficial to environment protection.
Don't throw away your dinner leftovers anymore - pack them for lunch the next day. Even better, plan your dinner so that you have leftovers. This way, you aren't scrambling the next morning, trying to pack a lunch.
It's time to invest in a good food container. No one likes opening their lunchbox and finding that their rice has gone cold or their salad has gotten warm. Therefore, you need an insulated food container to keep your lunch at the perfect temperature.
Made of BPA free, food grade, FDA approved stainless steel, this lunch box can keep your food and beverages hot cold for 12 hours. Tips: fill into boiling or cold water to pre-heat or pre-chill for 5-10 minutes before packing food for better insulation performance.
Uuden päivän tulee tulla rituaalin tunteella.
Muistatko vielä sen ajan, jolloin äitisi tai isäsi pakkasi lounaat? Pakkaa itsellesi retrolounas, joka sisältää terveellisiä ruokia - tarvitset tätä rituaalin tunnetta jokaiseen yhteiseen päivään.
