Lunch Well - by Fern Green (Hardcover)

About the Book

"Much ink has been spilled over packing desirable lunches for kids, but for adults, lunch is often the neglected meal. With too many time constraints placed on it, lunch often becomes a sad desk-side meal. Rather than sidelining this important meal, why not use it as an opportunity to infuse your day with a bit of self-care, and a chance to refuel for a productive second half of your day. With 85 recipes, Lunch Well offers a road map: meals that take 15 minutes or less, meals that require only 5 ingredients, how to use one vegetable for three different lunches, and how to turn toast and tinned fish into a perfect meal. It's packed with abundant tips on how to build your pantry to make lunching easier and faster, how to prep while you're making your morning coffee, and quick ferments for better gut-health. With an eye to reusing ingredients and making good use of leftovers, not to mention packing to avoid spills and soggy ingredients, this is a practical book to reshape your relationship with the midday meal."--Provided by publisher.
