Running against the clock, finding your badge, getting the report done on time, politely answering all your emails... A corporate worker has many things to worry about, and food shouldn't be one of them. Today, we want to dedicate this entry to all the members of the Godínez community who treat their divided lunch containers like their greatest treasure.
Does your weekly menu include frozen pizza, tacos from the corner stand, or instant soups? Forget about these unhealthy meals. Here’s how you can choose the best food to take to work.
Easy to Transport
Surely your mom's pozole is the best, but we don’t recommend taking it to work. Unless you want your bag to smell like red chili for three weeks or your jacket to have an indelible stain of broth, it’s best to choose dishes that are easy to transport, like this delicious pasta with green beans.
Practical
We won’t argue: sopes are definitely delicious, but eating them properly takes time, preparation, several containers, and a lot of napkins. If you're going to eat at your desk, the last thing you want is to stain your papers with green sauce, right? With this tasty pasta and cheese pie, you won’t have to worry about making a mess at your workplace.
At Room Temperature
The time to heat your lunch container at the office can turn into a battle of shifts and timing. Save those precious minutes by bringing food that doesn’t need to be heated. Enjoy a healthy, fresh, and flavorful meal with this original kale, quinoa, and peach salad.
Simple
How many times has it happened that you plan to cook a super elaborate dish, but end up postponing it due to lack of time or motivation? If you don't want to succumb to the taste and convenience of street food, look for simple recipes that won’t take much of your time. The traditional Mexican picadillo will always save you in a pinch and can be used to prepare other dishes.
Light
Only a corporate worker knows how hard it is to stay awake during a 4 PM meeting after having eaten a heavy meal. Give yourself a hand by bringing light and easy-to-digest food to the office. Try these Vietnamese rolls. We guarantee you won’t go hungry, and you won’t suffer from a food coma halfway through the day.
Discreet
Finally, what should you consider before choosing your food for work? In the name of all Godínez, we ask you to only bring discreet dishes. Honestly, it’s not pleasant to arrive at an office that smells like onions or fish market. Something tasty, without strong odors like this quinoa risotto is always a good option.
Now that you know what the best food to take to work is, what will you fill your lunch container with?
