This week's office lunch box menu plan has some wholesome, healthy and comforting recipes like amrantha khidi, vegetable biryani, mushroom paratha, dal paratha and many more. These recipes are simple to make and can be served with any raita and pickle of your choice. We have also given some prep tips to pack healthy lunch boxes easily in the mornings.
Planning and packing lunch boxes can get easier if you have a plan in place. Shop for all the ingredients required over the weekends. This saves time and energy and if you have all the ingredients handy then you enjoy making the dish as well.
We have included lots of fiber and nutrition the form of green leafy vegetables like in the amaranth khichi and methi raita. Green leafy vegetables stay fresh for up to a week in the refrigerator. While buying green leaves ensure that they are fresh and are not pale green or yellow. While storing the leaves clean and remove any damaged and rotten leaves and store fresh green leaves in an airtight container. Use as and when required.
For protein in your diet we have the chatpata rajma salad. Which has great Indian flavours and is quick and simple to make. Adding a variety of dals or legumes in your diet helps you get varied nutrition.
Lauki is a great vegetable to have especially during summers. So we have included a raita which had all the benefits of lauki. Grated and fresh lauki tastes amazing with curd and is really cooling for your body.
Along with a super healthy and delicious lunch box try our healthy office snack options as well.
