When you lived with your parents, you took organic school lunches in your backpack. Your parents would prepare your organic lunch box with great dedication.
But then you started college and your entire life turned upside down. Should we even start talking about the food you eat? Pizza, burgers, coke, huge sandwiches, Snickers bars, and any other type of junk food you could think of.
Why are you doing this?
“I don’t know how to cook” is the most common excuse for students.? It’s not good enough. We’ll suggest 5 recipes with organic ingredients to replace junk lunches at college.
- Stuffed Avocado Chicken Salad
You should fit an avocado in your meals whenever possible. It contains fiber and more potassium than a banana.
When you stuff it with chicken salad, it becomes a satisfying meal that won’t make you feel guilty. Use cooked organic chicken and fresh onion, lemon, mustard, spices, and Greek yogurt for the salad. Stuff the avocado and enjoy! This is one of the easiest whole30 lunch ideas to prepare.
2. Bacon and Egg Tortellini
Who said that your organic lunch box couldn’t be delicious? Organic food is real food. As long as you buy ingredients without any harmful chemicals in them, you’re good.
Cook the bacon in a large skillet, without using any oil. Make it crisp!
Boil the eggs, peel them and slice them.
Cook tortellini in water with salt.
Combine everything together and use your favorite spices to make it tasty.
3. Organic Stuffed Zucchini Tacos
This lunch will keep you full, so you won’t think about snacks while working on your assignments. Think about it: good food will keep you focused, so you’ll avoid the need to buycheap assignments for students. The stuffed zucchini take a bit longer to prepare, but you’ll be working on assignments while they are in the oven.
You’ll need ground organic meat, finely chopped pepper, onion, some olive oil, and your favorite herbs for seasoning. That’s the filling. You’ll also need two zucchinis cut in half, lengthwise.
Start the oven to 400 Fahrenheit. Prepare the filling in a pan. You’ll combine all ingredients (but not the meat) and cook them in olive oil for about three minutes. Then you’ll add the meat and seasoning, and you’ll cook for 10 more minutes. Fill the zucchini boats with this mixture, cover with aluminum foil and cook for 15 minutes.
4. Rice Cakes & Rice Crackers with Hummus
This meal requires NO cooking. You just get organic rice cakes and crackers from the store, some organic hummus and all the veggies and other ingredients that you like.
Get creative with avocado, peppers, tomatoes, sprouts, ricotta, cucumber, tamari, pistachios… you’re the chef here!
5. Organic Smoothie Bowl
The smoothie bowl isn’t just for breakfast. You can have it whenever you need a boost of energy. This can be a snack, but it’s also good as a standalone meal. A smoothie bowl is full of fiber and nutrients.
Try a green one first! Blend mango, spinach, banana, pineapple, avocado, and some almond milk. You can add some granola if you want to stay full for hours after the bowl. That’s the foundation. Top it up with berries, chia seeds, coconut flakes, and anything else that tastes good and makes the bowl look pretty.
Eating Clean Is Fun!
See? Those meals are easy to prepare. They are also easy to digest, and they keep you satisfied. You’ll feel better about yourself when you start eating organic. This is good food that doesn’t come with any harmful ingredients inside. You’ll be taking care of your health, which is important when you’re at college.
It’s time for all of us to stop indulging in junk food. It’s bad for the environment and it’s bad for our bodies.
At college, you must stay full of energy throughout the day. Pizza doesn’t give you that. Organic stuffed zucchini tacos do!
