Summer lends itself to charcuterie like lunches and poolside meals and I have organized some ideas to combine for your next quick “Adult Lunchable.” An adult Lunchable is the same take as a kids Lunchable that is premade from the grocery but is higher in ingredient quality and satiating ingredients.
- Rolled up turkey, pickles, pistachios, berry medley, a square of chocolate
- Chicken protein bar (or 2), kale chips, roasted chickpeas, olives
- Moon cheese to scoop salmon salad, raw veggies, almonds, kiwi
- Grain-free crackers, hummus, grapes, cashews, spicy chomp stick (or 2)
- Small avocado, Hu crackers, hard-boiled eggs, strawberries
- Almond butter, a small apple, sliced cucumber with lime juice squeezed on it, salami
- Carrots, hummus, blueberries, salmon strip (or 2)
- Dates, sweet potato chips, peanuts, rolled-up sulfite/nitrate-free deli chicken
- Flackers, cheddar cheese, small banana, sun butter
- Turkey Jerky, grain-free tortilla chips, salsa, and pepita seeds
A formula I tend to follow when piecing together these types of lunches is aiming for about ~500 cals, >30 grams of protein, something attractive, something fresh/plant matter, and items lower or moderate in carbs, but higher in fiber. Have fun with the combinations you come up with and try new things!
