With the New Year upon us, there is a renewed sense of focus on health and wellness. Whole30 is a health program that I know many people are undertaking this month. You can read more about Whole30 here if you aren’t sure what it is. I did Whole30 for a month last year and loved the results. I felt healthier, stronger and had more energy. I am going to start another Whole30 January 15th, and so am gearing up for that!
Knowing that so many of you are doing Whole30 right now, (or like me are planning on doing it in the near future) I wanted to share with you all an easy Whole30 approved lunch idea. A quick scroll through Pinterest reveals a ton of amazing Whole30 approved recipes, but I noticed a huge lack of recipes that can be made at home and taken to work for lunch. As working women lunch is always the toughest meal to plan / be healthy at (am I right?!) The below Powerhouse salad is easy to prepare ahead and bring for lunch at the office. It is also – very importantly – super filling to ensure that you have the energy to power through your busy work day!
Whole 30 Lunch Idea: Powerhouse Salad with Lemon Tahini Dressing
My dad recently gave me a crate of sweet potatoes (he has a garden) and I was running out of stuff to make with them. This salad sure seems like a yummy place to start! I may add salmon to mine, being a new pescatarian!
Aw I LOVE that your dad gave you a bunch of homegrown veggies – so cool! and ooo yes salmon would be a great addition!
