When you're looking to change your eating habits and remove processed foods and take out, making ahead lunch for your work week is essential. It needs to be satisfying and it needs to be easy or the take out menu will be calling your name. Just a few simple ingredients and a few minutes of your time and you can prepare two days worth of lunch for a one time effort in the kitchenZucchini has been the number one way many who are sugar free and watching their carb intake, have adjusted to a lower carb diet. Spiralizing veggies like zucchini make all the difference for a boring meal to turn interesting and inviting to eat. If you don't have a spiralizer machine you can also use a serrated peeler which will give you the same effect of noodles with your zucchini. Wash the zucchini and keep the peel on for more vitamins and minerals You can really add whatever veggies you prefer. I kept it simple here but you can add any of the following toppings with your spiralized zucchini noodle; chopped raw sweet yellow and red peppers, raw sliced mushrooms, chopped ripe avocado, olives, even fresh berries to add some sweetness to this salad. If you're not a fan of asiago cheese try cheddar or feta If you want protein add some cooked chopped chicken breastMake this in a mason jar and you'll be set for two days. Double it and you'll have 4 days of carefree but fabulously healthy and satisfying lunches
