Make Lunch Easy

Members Were Sparked

I know that if I save packing lunch for the morning, I am likely to oversleep or forget to pack it. But, if I make myself an extra portion (or several extra portions) of dinner and put the leftovers into one-serving per container pieces of tupperware, I don't stress about lunch in the morning.

MORE INFORMATION:
Granted, it helps to have a microwave at work, but you can make something you can eat both hot AND cold (like whole grain pasta, pesto, tomatoes and fresh mozzarella; broiled salmon you can put on a salad). Always have spare, microwave and dishwasher safe containers handy for leftovers!

Bagging Snacks

I really hate doing dishes, so it's so much easier for me to just grab the chip bag out of the cabinet. So now, when I do shopping, I buy plenty of sandwich and snack bags. When I get home and am putting everything away, I put the serving size of the chips and other snacks into the plastic baggies.

MORE INFORMATION:
I'm always running late for work, so when I'm packing my lunch, it's so easy just to throw the bags in.
