Roasted Sweet Potato Cubes, Broccoli, Asparagus, Red Pepper and Smashed Avocado Lunch Bowl
This scrumptious lunch bowl is miles from the prepackaged carrots and dip we sometimes grab for lunch. For one thing, there are no carrots. Instead, we have roasted sweet potatoes with asparagus, broccoli and lettuce. The dip is smashed avocado with basil.

"Everything in the Fridge" Lunch Bowl
There are a few things to remember with lunch bowls: 1. Choose different flavors, textures and colors. 2. Don't get hung up on a recipe if you don't have the exact ingredients. Make it work with whatever is in the fridge. 3. Having a grain and/or legume with different vegetables and salad leaves is a good balance to remember. If you want to copy something, try this red quinoa, spelt, cucumber, tomato, grilled halloumi, pomegranate and roasted chickpeas lunch bowl.

Mediterranean Rice Lunch Bowl
It's mezze in a handy take-to-work bowl. As much as we'd like to go to the Mediterranean restaurant around the corner every single workday, it's not possible. This rice bowl is just as delicious but won't drain your bank balance as quickly. Make it with grilled chicken, falafel, or both. We won't judge.

Loaded Paleo Chicken Meatball Salad Bowl
It takes 20 minutes to make these paleo-approved chicken meatballs and most of that time is waiting for them to bake in the oven. Combine the finished meatballs with avocado, tomatoes, lettuce and carrots. Top with tortilla chips before serving for more Tex-Mex vibes. If you happen to have any extras, you'll be set for a delicious dinner.
