GLP-1 lunch ideas

169 recipes, each with its nutrition calculated.

Lunch has to fit around a working day, so this list leans towards what travels, what keeps and what is ready in the time you have: open sandwiches, wraps, soups and bowls, alongside warmer plates for a day at home.

Where a recipe relies on cooked rice or cooked meat from the fridge, its storage notes say how to handle it safely.
