Preparing a weekly menu to take to work is not complicated. We promise!
Taking a packed lunch to work has become increasingly popular in recent years. Not only does it save money, but it also gives you more control over your food choices and portion sizes.
In this article, we explain everything you need to consider when planning your lunches to take to work. In addition, we suggest a complete menu for the whole week, very nutritious and diverse.
Planning: the most important thing
Thinking every day about what to eat the next day can be tedious and, in many cases, ends up being the perfect excuse to give up on this initiative.
To avoid this situation, the best option is to plan before starting a new week. By preparing meals at home and taking them to the workplace, you can ensure that you are consuming nutritious and balanced food that meets your personal preferences and dietary needs.
In addition, by using a lunchbox you're promoting sustainability and reducing the consumption of single-use packaging, which is so common in takeaway meals. And you'll save time by avoiding waiting in restaurants! As you can see, preparing your own meals to take to work has many advantages!
How to create a weekly menu to take to work
When planning a weekly menu, you should take a few aspects into consideration to ensure that all meals provide the necessary daily dose of calories, nutrients and micronutrients.
All meals should contain their corresponding proportion of macronutrients: proteins, fats and carbohydrates
It is important to include a good portion of legumes or vegetables
Always choose fruit for dessert
Pack your lunch in a suitable container to take to work. This is a practical, safe and ecological way of eating home-cooked meals away from home. The lunch boxes in Lékué's To Go range have been specially designed for this purpose. Their compartments allow you to separate the different foods without everything getting mixed up - your salad is finally saved!
At In & Out Cooking you'll find different designs to suit your needs. These lunch boxes are very practical and convenient and can be placed directly in the microwave and dishwasher.
