Is your coffee losing the battle against midday slumps while performing your call center job<\/a> duties? How about exploring some box lunch ideas to turbocharge your workday? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A bento box lunch is a container with several compartments to separate your healthy foods. Made popular from the traditional Japanese bento lunch box, the whole idea is to eat the meal in a single serving. While carrying any lunch box might trigger fond memories of Mom\u2019s classic lunches, there\u2019s no shame in embracing your inner child. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just maybe skip the chocolate-covered Mazap\u00e1n and vanilla Duval\u00edn in your power-packed meal. The goal is to aim for fuel to have a productive day at work, adding more fun without the sugar high. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Introduction to Bento: A Healthy Choice for Busy Workdays<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Adding more vegetables, fiber, and protein to your diet doesn\u2019t mean you swear off the famous Tijuana Shrimp tacos. Healthy eating at work<\/a> is all about balance. Fuel your body with nutritious foods regardless of whether you practice yoga, run, or walk to work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many bento lunch box ideas include avocados, beans, fish, chicken, and grilled vegetables. The food you choose to munch on determines whether you\u2019ll feel as light as a feather or as heavy as a sack of potatoes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crafting Your Quick Bento Masterpieces<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Preparing for a day of mental acrobatics worthy of a Lucha Libre wrestler requires a healthy food choice. Make a list of your top five vegetables, beans, seeds, nuts, and meats. Planning your lunches gives you time back in your day, opening up the possibility for you to seize the health benefits of walking to work<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Essential Components of a Balanced Bento<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The traditional Japanese bento box usually contains rice, noodles, vegetables, and a protein such as fish. More common bento box lunch ideas include rice or noodles with pickled vegetables, meatballs, salad, and so much more. When you create your own packed lunch for work, think of fiber, protein, and low carbs as the foundation of your meal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips for Speedy Bento Preparation<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Planning and preparing saves time. Incorporating leftovers from your dinner is also a great time saver. To speed up your lunchbox meal prep, think of two or three meal ideas that have the same beans, vegetables, and meat. For example, sliced chicken can be a chicken salad one day and chicken bean corn tacos with avocados the next day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
