  • Veggies and hummus
  • Fresh or dried fruit
  • Yogurt and granola
  • Veggie-based sandwiches or wraps
  • Green salad
  • Tuna salad and whole grain crackers
  • Nuts or trail mix

And here are some healthy lunch-friendly items off of our Switch List.

  • Switch regular pasta for whole wheat pasta
