When I surveyed my group Lutz Nutrition’s Beautiful People, MOST people said they struggle with healthy lunch ideas. I think one of the issues around this is our need to categorize foods a certain way. You don’t need to only eat cereal or oatmeal at breakfast, and you don’t need to only eat sandwiches at lunch.
