Brown Bag lunch- a Smart Idea for a Failing Economy

Monday, November 10, 2008


It’s back and its cool- the brown bag lunch is the up and coming trend for those with dwindling bank accounts or maybe just wanting to have a healthier lunch. And taking your lunch to work or school can save both money and time. Brown bag lunches aren’t just bologna sandwiches anymore.

One of our favorite ideas for an easy lunch is to turn your dinner leftovers in to a healthy wrap. Use your leftover grilled chicken and add fresh apple slices, chopped pecans, shredded cheddar cheese and a little mayonnaise. The great thing about this wrap is that it can be heated or cold- either way it is delicious and easy to throw together before work in the morning.

Look at the money you saved! Plus you can use the extra time it would have taken to have lunch out for an errand or a leisurely walk.
