The best way to stick to a meal plan is by always being prepared and keeping things new. So here is a selection of banting lunch ideas for work that you can prepare the night before.

Banting Lunch Ideas for Work

Coconut Granola

Yes, we know, lunch ideas… but this granola is so good it can be snacked on right throughout the day. You can start the day off right with a filling banting approved breakfast, or have a mid-afternoon treat. This nut based granola will keep you going well past the late afternoon snack attack!

Coconut Porridge With Yoghurt & Berries

A rich and creamy grain-free alternative. For added flavour and decadence stir in a teaspoon of your favourite nut butter. It is technically a breakfast dish but works as a brunch idea too.

Zucchini Noodles With Chicken Feta & Kale Meatballs

Even us at Crush HQ, we have grown a bit tired of spiralised food. But at the end of the day there is no better pasta substitute, so dust the spiraliser off and make this dish!

Pumpkin Gnocchi with Roasted Sausage

In this gnocchi recipe, we have substituted the potato for pumpkin, which pairs perfectly alongside the chilli, sage and butter sauce.
