These lunches are so good and easy you can take them to work even when you’re scrambling to get out the door! How? They require 5 and under main ingredients!

Sounds too good to be true right? A delicious and healthy work lunch that only has 5 ingredients? See below!

5 work lunches with 5 main ingredients

1. No-Rice Sushi

No Rice Sushi

Instead of running out of the office to grab lunch everyday, pack your own! When it comes to sushi, depending on what fillings you get, it can be quite high in calories and like any food it is always better to make where you can. This sushi is made WITHOUT the rice and is still just as filling AND more budget-friendly!
