Think Fast - Wellness Wednesday

Eating consistently throughout the day provides you with the energy needed to stay focused and fueled. Try these tips and recipes for easy grab-n-go lunches to munch on between meetings, patients, or running your kids around. 

• Mason jar meals can be prepped in advance, travel well and provide plenty of whole grains and veggies. Just toss your favorite salad ingredients into a mason jar or try one of these recipes: Chickpea, Farro and Greens, Mediterranean Garden Salad or Peach and Arugula Salad. 
• Fruits and veggies that don't require much prepare nutritious and delicious additions to any lunch. Bananas, oranges, berries, mini bell peppers, baby carrots, cherry tomatoes, and sugar snap peas will add fiber and nutrients to any meal. 
• It's a wrap! Handheld lunches are convenient and a great way to make leftovers portable, just simply wrap in a tortilla or lettuce. Bean burritos, curried chicken salad or chicken teriyaki with veggies are all tasty combos.
