She is trying to come up with healthy options (more fruits and veggies!) that she can eat quickly on her way to class, and that don’t require a large container to lug around all evening. Any ideas?

Editor: Kevin, a vegetable-filled wrap or sandwich pocket would be my pick. They don’t require utensils, can be eaten fairly neatly and don’t need much packaging. Here are two of my favorite recipes:

→ Spiced Lentil, Sweet Potato & Kale Whole Wheat Pockets
→ Spicy Lentil Wraps with Tahini Sauce

Readers, do you have any ideas for healthy dinner options that can be eaten on the go?

Next question?
