Leftovers Reimagined: Transforming Dinner into Delicious Lunch
Remember that scrumptious lectin-free dinner you enjoyed last night? Let’s give it a delicious makeover for lunch!
1. Leftover Roast Chicken or Fish Salad: Dice your leftover protein and toss it with a dollop of avocado oil mayo, chopped celery, red onion, and a sprinkle of fresh herbs. Serve it over a bed of leafy greens or wrap it in a lettuce cup for a refreshing crunch.
2. Soup-erb and Satisfying: A warm bowl of leftover soup is a comforting and nourishing lunch option. Add a handful of fresh spinach or kale to your soup just before serving for an extra boost of nutrients.
3. Salad Power Bowls: Transform last night’s grilled veggies and protein into a vibrant salad bowl. Combine your leftovers with a base of leafy greens, some chopped avocado, and a drizzle of your favorite lectin-free dressing.
Speedy and Simple: Lectin-Free Lunch Ideas When Time is Tight
Short on time? No problem! These quick and easy lunch ideas will keep you on track without sacrificing flavor.
1. The “Everything But the Bread” Sandwich: Skip the bread and pile your favorite sandwich fillings onto crisp lettuce leaves. Think turkey slices, avocado, tomato, sprouts, and a dollop of mustard.
2. Mason Jar Magic: Layer your favorite salad ingredients in a mason jar for a visually appealing and portable lunch. Start with the dressing at the bottom, followed by heartier ingredients like cooked quinoa or chickpeas, then lighter veggies, and finally, leafy greens.
3. Avocado Love: Avocado halves are a blank canvas for creativity! Top them with a can of wild-caught tuna, a sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning, or a dollop of homemade guacamole.
