One of the biggest changes I’ve noticed since starting my new job is how routinized my weekdays have become. Wake up, get ready, commute, work, commute, eat, clean up, hang out with the boyfriend, shower, read, sleep, repeat. And while my Type A, to-do-list-making, hyper-organized self enjoys the structure, it makes me especially cherish those free, unscheduled moments.
That’s why I spent a little time coming up with a plan for my weekday lunches. I’m a big proponent of bringing my lunch, since it generally means cheaper and healthier (and especially during this time of year, more money in my pocket and a few less calories never hurts). However, the last thing I want to do before going to bed or while I’m trying to get out the door in the morning is pack my lunch. So I put together a list of easy, healthy recipes with the goal to make one or two over the weekend so I can spend more time doing craft projects and watching christmas movies and less time figuring out what to throw together for lunch each day. I thought I’d share my favorites here.
