When you’re doing your meal planning, do you think about lunch as well as dinner? For so many of my clients what to have for lunch used to be an on-the-fly decision, often a choice they weren’t happy with and regularly even skipped because they just didn’t know what to have.  

But when you spend some time planning, it’s easy to ensure you have some quick lunch ideas to hand, to think about ingredients you can buy and have available, to see where you can batch prepare ingredients so you have access to them for lunches or to see where some leftovers will fill your belly.  

My chilli peanut noodles recipe is a great one to have up your sleeve for a wfh lunch. It’s on the table in about 5 minutes and makes use of store cupboard ingredients combined with bits of veg from your veg drawer or freezer, batch prepared veg or veg leftover from another meal.
