For Lunch

14. DIY Skinny Salad in a Jar

There is just so much healthy, yummy goodness you can put in a salad, and yet, it’s very easy to turn something light into a very heavy lunch meal. Salad dressing, for instance, can make or break your healthy salad. Instead of choosing a creamy, fattening option, like ranch dressing, make your own by mixing lemon juice with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Another great swap idea is nuts or seeds instead of bacon bits to get that desirable crunch.

15. No-Mayo Chicken Salad

Avoid the overwhelming amount of calories in mayonnaise by using olive oil and lemon juice to create a moist and tangy dressing for your chicken salad.

16. Lemon Pepper Salmon Caesar Salad

This savory recipe swaps out typical Caesar dressing for a much healthier version using plain Greek yogurt, grated Parmesan cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic, and anchovy filets. Oh my yum!

17. Skinny Taco Lettuce Boats

Swap out typical taco shells for these crunchy lettuce boats for a low-calorie, low-carb lunch that’s still filled with all those delicious Mexican flavors you love.

18. Sweet Potato and BBQ Chicken Lettuce Wrap

A wrap somehow sounds healthier than a good old sandwich, but no matter how you slice it, the carbs are still there. Swap out the bread or tortilla for lettuce, and you can still incorporate super tasty ingredients like BBQ chicken.

19. Hummus and Vegetable Collard Greens Wrap

For the queen of clean, try using collard greens as a wrap. They’re incredibly healthy, crunchy, and sturdy enough to hold various ingredients.
