When you hear the word “lunch”, what is the first thing that comes to your mind? It’s probably something unhealthy, right?

I’m sure you’ve heard about the food pyramid and how important it is to eat a balanced diet. This means eating lots of fruits and vegetables and little or no meat. But what if you’re not into eating meat? Or you just want to get a few more pounds off?

Well, here are some healthy options to keep you from reaching for that bag of chips.

1) Turkey sandwich. A turkey sandwich is a great way to get some protein and fill up without all the fat. A turkey sandwich is made by slicing a lean piece of turkey breast and placing it between two slices of whole wheat bread. Add lettuce, tomatoes, and mustard and you have a healthy sandwich.

2) Soup. Soups are a great way to fill up on veggies and stay away from heavy meats. They also tend to be low in calories. Try using chicken broth instead of water when cooking soup.
