Quick & Healthy Fall Lunches- BLOGTOBER OCTOBER 17, 2014

1. VEGGIE WRAP

Take your favorite tortilla wrap and spread some hummus on it. Then layer your favorite veggies on it. My favorite hummus is the Trader Joe's Garlic Hummus. As for veggies I like romaine lettuce, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, kalamata olives, and shredded carrots. Before rolling it up top it off w/a bit of balsamic vinaigrette.

2. SALAD IN A JAR

Take a mason jar and layer your veggies. Start with your favorite lettuce (I like romaine it is heartier and sturdier) then continue layers with veggies like beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives even chicken or qunioa. Store your favorite dressing in a small separate container to prevent the veggies from wilting.

3. EGG SALAD SANDWICH

You can make this the night before.

Chop your boiled eggs and mix with vegannaise (healthier alternative to mayo and actually pretty good), salt, black pepper, paprika, and a touch of garlic powder.

You can also add a celery stalk for extra veggies and crunch.

Spread on your favorite bread (try Ezekiel Bread- sprouted grain bread and super good for you) add some spinach and VIOLA!!!
