I'm a total meatball fiend, whether they're of Swedish, Italian, or Southern descent. (Grape jelly ring a bell?) In a sloppy sandwich, meatballs become even more appealing — and doubly so when in "small-bite" slider form. Take my spin on Chicken Parmesan. Chicken meatballs are stuffed with cubes of mozzarella, doused in marinara, and finished off with a generous dusting of Parmesan. Think it sounds like too much hassle for lunch? Check your freezer first.
It's March 14, and we all know what that means, right? It's Pi Day! (March 14 = 3.14. Get it?) Every year we like to use this as an excuse to pull up pi(e) recipes from our archives, but this year we're forgoing the sweet in favor of the savory. Even better: all of these pies, quiches, and pasties would make great lunches. So here's to infinite pie possibilities!
Recently I stumbled upon a reusable wrap that keeps sandwiches, carrot sticks and brownies completely protected while en route to your work. And it's easy on the eyes... and easy to clean. Waste-free, allergy-free, toxin-free lunch packaging? Could it really be possible? More
Yesterday we showed you the crazy side of Pinterest lunches, but there are practical lunch tips to be had, too! So how do serious lunch packers do it? I'm guilty of stuffing last night's leftovers into a glass container and shoving it in the bottom of my bag. It might satisfy my hunger at lunchtime, but there's nothing exciting about it... nothing like these colorful, perfectly-packed lunch creations from Pinterest users! This is visual lunch inspiration at its well-rounded best.

A ploughman's lunch doesn't have to be something that's only done in England. Because really, shouldn't making cheese the centerpiece of a meal be a universal concept? Think of it as a deconstructed sandwich.
A ploughman's lunch is a simple template: pair cheese with some bread, chutney, and maybe some meat or pickles or hard-boiled egg, and call it a lunch. But what about getting a little creative with it? Here are five new takes, showing how easy it is to switch it up. More
Here in Southern California, winter is on its way out and I have never felt more ready to give kale salads a rest. Right now I am craving all that is crunchy, fresh and pale green -- like this salad, which mixes a dill-flecked dressing with sweet sugar snap peas, crisp celery, chopped romaine and pretty, pink-edged radish slices that remind me of spring's first blossoms winking to life.

Even if I didn't eat a primarily vegan diet, I'm pretty sure I'd prefer tofu egg-less salad to the real thing. I love the texture of roughly crumbled tofu, the way you can flavor it any way you want, and the absence of heavy mayo (plus it keeps a lot better). Lately, my favorite tofu "egg" salad is one that incorporates bold curry powder, plump golden raisins, and roasted pumpkin seeds. Served as a sandwich or on a bed of greens, it makes an easy and healthy lunch. More
