Modern office workers do not dare to switch to a balanced diet, as the working rhythm does not allow them to relax. People now for the most part have enough of some kind of hamburger, donut or french fries, chocolates or buns. Meals at work happen in a hurry and in a hurry. Sometimes it comes to the point that there is no time for anything other than a cup of coffee or tea. In fact, each person can independently arrange for himself a balanced and nutritious diet at work.
If the work does not provide an opportunity to eat normally, then food can be carried from home. Of course, at first it will seem that preparing food for work in advance at home is hard. But over time, it will become a habit and will not cause trouble. Many dishes are more convenient to cook in the evening, and in the morning, going to work, just take them with you. The benefits of homemade food are innumerable. First, we will clearly know what this food is made of; secondly, its energy value can be regulated; thirdly, you can cook what you like, and even let it be boiled onions.
We must immediately make a reservation that for food at work it will be necessary to purchase two plastic containers – they should be different in volume, but not very large, a small thermos, packages for sandwiches, a fork and spoon, a cup, paper napkins.
The next step is to determine what exactly should be prepared for work. To nutrition at work, more precisely to specific dishes, there are several requirements:
– the dish should be able not to spoil for a long time;
– the dish should be compact, in other words, a whole fried sturgeon will not work, as it will not fit in a bag;
– all the ingredients from which the dish was prepared should not oppose the rules of the chosen diet;
– if there is an assumption that today you will have to eat in a hurry, then you need to prepare a dish that does not require a knife, fork and spoon. And preferably, plates.
What kind of dishes can be prepared for meals at work. Yes, there are many requirements, but the range is still quite large.
Eating at work – salad
Salads are great for the job. You can prepare salads from any products that fit the diet. If the diet is based on the consumption of a minimum of calories, then you can prepare a salad of fresh vegetables or fruits. If the diet is low-carb, then you can make a salad of varieties of meat, pickles, bell peppers, green peas and pickled mushrooms.
Meals for work – soups
Soups, of course, are more capricious than salads, but they can also be used as food at work. Soups should not be left unattended, otherwise you can easily earn problems with digestion and stomach. Soups can be either hot or cold.
Soup to work should be carried in a thermos. Of course, it is most convenient to eat puree soup at work. Such homogeneous soups can either be drunk from a thermos or poured into a tureen with a handle. If the soup contains coarsely chopped vegetables, then it is best to carry it to work in a container, after making sure that there is somewhere to warm it up.
Snacks and snacks at work
Snacks and snacks at the workplace provide an opportunity to experiment with dishes.
For example, as a snack, you can use a vegetable stew with meat or chicken, or a potato casserole. Snacks during a snack can not be warmed up before use, this makes them very convenient and saves time.
Second courses also have a huge number of cooking options. You can simply boil the potatoes, cut them into pieces, drizzle with olive oil and add a pickled cucumber or pickled tomato to it. You can cook spaghetti with vegetables or rice with vegetables. In general, there are a lot of options, the main thing is that the rules of the diet are followed.
