healthy  pregnancy lunch ideas

5

Lunch can be an easy meal to skip or some people may even swap it for a plate of fast food because it can seem more convenient at the time. However, pregnant women have to meet increased nutritional needs which are best done through food prepped at home.

AVOCADO TOAST

1

The basic ingredients for an avocado toast are whole wheat or sourdough bread, smashed avocado with lime or everything but the bagel seasoning, and eggs. You can make your egg in any style you prefer, hard-boiled, scrambled, or fried.

CHICKEN SALAD

2

I’ll share a super-easy way to make chicken salad sandwiches at home. Use some leftover roasted chicken, apples, lettuce, red onion, and bread, pita, or a wrap. 

burrito bowls

3

Burritos are commonly found in fast-food restaurants and cafeterias, but can easily be made at home. For a homemade take on this lunch classic, we suggest trying a bean burrito bowl!

GREEK PITAS

These stuffed pitas are truly a winner! You can make them into a pita pocket or keep them as a salad. Pita bread is absolutely delicious and practical for eating lunch on the go, and salad is pretty easy to pack.

TURKEY SKEWERS

While still easy to prepare, turkey skewers are a fun way to mix things up when eating lunch at work. It’s also very high in protein and healthy fats and has a good amount of complex carbs.
