Most of my lunches are packed with laziness in mind!!
Case in point: a luscious salad is really just a handful of pre-washed lettuce, topped with a few pre-chopped veggies, leftovers in a drizzle of balsamic and honey and sea salt.
I was too lazy to make a sandwich. Too lazy to create a salad. Too lazy to wash + chop on a school night. Too lazy to make a salad dress. Yet somehow, this salad works. And is probably delicious as I’m eating it right now!
A half eaten yogurt container.
Yogurts are the best for lunches because you just plop them into the lunch box.
Filled with Biscoff!
And a gooey slice of CinnaRaisinWalnut. Too lazy to put anything on it – just plopped it into a bag!
Guess who has to do all of the work!?
Mr. Fork and Mrs. Spoon 😉
Hardly working or working hard!?
Freya @ Brit Chick Runs says
I’m working hard :Dwell, I was – I just baked a giant black forest cake for my gran’s birthday 🙂 but now it’s time for me to blog! The fun never stops :p
Have a good afternoon!
missy says
hardly working 😉
Beth @ Beth's Journey to Thin says
I love easy to throw together lunches. Pre-washed lettuce is a godsend! 🙂
Carrie says
I keep forgetting to keep an eye out for Biscoff, I’m dying to try it!
Heather (Heather's Dish) says
nothin’ wrong with making a lazy salad…especially when it’s as heavenly as yours are!
Callie says
Mmm. That Biscoff looks good!
Your lunches always make me hungry. 🙂
Jessica @ How Sweet says
I want to try Biscoff so badly!
Cassie @ Tasteful Tales says
Hardly working here! Took a half day today 😉
Gabriela @ Une Vie Saine says
Packing lunches definitely gets tedious. Hardly working over here…unless you could google reading as working!
Evan Thomas says
Being lazy can be a good thing
Marissa says
I’m always afraid to pack yogurts in my lunch… every time I seem to do it, the container pops open and I have a lunchbag full of yogurt!
Robyn @ Frugal 'n' Fit! says
I like to take leftovers and just plop them onto a bed of a baby spinach. Lunch doesn’t get any more quick than that!
Melissa @ HerGreenLife says
I’m with you all the way on the leftovers — I scoop the leftover-of-the-day into a Pyrex container for easy (plastic-free) reheating at work. I tend to panic when our leftover stores start running low 😉 Putting them on top of a bed of spinach sounds like a great way to sneak a bit more veg into the meal.
Sarena (The Non-Dairy Queen) says
Sometimes the simplest (laziest) things are the best! Enjoy it!
Wei-Wei says
Hurray for lazy meals! My favourite lazy meal is… snacks. 😉 I just snack here and there, and before I know it I’m full. 😛 Probably not the most balanced, but most satisfying I think (maybe because of the variety? ;))

Kaz says
Hey, when budgeting your time, fancy lunches fall by the wayside. Your lazy salads are the best. 😀
Brittany says
I’m all for lazy lunches!!
Marina says
Lazy quick lunches, that’s what I need on days when I try to work hard :))
Katherine says
I feel like every meal I make is lazyness and I just throw things in the microwave or put veggies on lettuce and call it a salad. Haste makes waste; enjoy a little downtime!
Jessica @ The Process of Healing says
Perhaps lazy, but your lunch looks incredible!
Dorry says
You have so much going on right now – a lazy lunch sounds like just what you need! And it’s healthy and tasty so how do beat that?
Camille says
Lazy or not, it still looks delicious!
Sara says
i’m flying DELTA this weekend — after all the hype, do you know if they still give you biscoff cookies?
p.s.:your lazy lunch is still better than mine — i eat more or less the same exact thing for breakfast/lunch everyday, only concentrate my energies on variety/planning on dinners…
Kath says
They should!!
The Healthy Apple says
Your Laziness=Deliciousness, hehe! Love the lunch, Kath…I’m eating a similar salad myself with green beans and lentils. Good luck packing!
R @ learningasichop.wordpress.com says
That salad looks delicious and I love how you put honey on it
Laura @ youngDCliving says
Gosh, I really must try Biscoffs one of these days. I never fly Delta so I haven’t gotten the chance! 🙁
Anna @ Newlywed, Newly Veg says
You can buy them at Walgreens!
Cassie @ A Very Busy Mind says
A perfect example of how eating healthfully is NOT that much work. 😉
Abby says
That’s my kind of lunch!!! i’m all about being a lazy eater 🙂
The Wife of a Dairyman says
It’s not laziness….it just gives you more time to do something else……right?!
Jil @ Peace, Love & Munchies says
My lunches have to be easy – there’s no other way I will pack ’em haha
Anna @ Newlywed, Newly Veg says
Ya know, Kath…based on your blog, I’d say that you might be a lot of things (creative, driven, funny)…but lazy ain’t one of them. 🙂
Kath says
🙂
Kelly says
Yeah, you’re definitely not lazy!! I want Biscoff spread so bad 🙂
Amber K says
A lazy salad is the best kind of lunch!
Veggielady4life says
Salad looks mighty good for a lazy day spread… 🙂
Melissa says
Working hard! However, my lunch is pretty lazy: leftover roasted veggies from Monday night topped with a hunk of feta cheese, plus some chunks of watermelon. I don’t even need to lift a spoon. 🙂
Jessica says
I must be always lazy! My lunches are leftovers almost everyday. Today was a black bean burger (like in your recipes!), parmesan-y orzo, and baked sweet potato wedges 😀
Sarah (Running to Slow Things Down) says
I’m lazy with making lunches-to-go too. But as long as its still tasty and nutritious, it works just fine. 😀
Your lunch looks delish!
Kacy says
I am a huge fan of lazy lunches. They still taste delicious 🙂
Amy Parks says
What exactly is Biscoff? When I click the link, it goes to cookies…
Kath says
Really, really delicious little cookies.
Jess @ MTL Veggie says
No harm in a lazy lunch, especially one that’s delicious and nutritious 🙂 That bread just made my mouth water. Yum!
Alyssa says
I think the fact that you actually take the time to pack a healthy lunch instead of just hitting the McDonald’s drive through makes you a lot less lazy than most Americans! A coworker just told me today that she buys frozen peanut butter and jelly sandwiches….I feel that really brings laziness to a new level!
Melissa says
Yeah–I couldn’t believe the frozen pb & j sandwiches when I first saw them at the grocery store. If you don’t have time to slap together a sandwich, you really need to reevaluate your priorities.
Diana @ frontyardfoodie says
You could say I’m working hard….just not on food! I literally just put a ton of fruit and a few crackers in my bag for lunch. Super low maintenance.
lynn (The Actors Diet) says
i never think of packing yogurt b/c i don’t want to keep it cool with an ice pack. do you even bother or do you just eat it warm?
Kath says
Room temp doesn’t bother me too much, but I have been putting an ice pack in there now that it’s summer and it works perfectly.
Mary @ Bites and Bliss says
That spoon’s cute! As long as your lazy lunch isn’t McDonald’s with a side of McFlurry then you’re ok 🙂
Stacey@http://stacey-healthylife.blogspot.com/ says
Given your week and everything going on, you deserve a lazy easy lunch. At least it’s not so lazy that your eating out.
Kristin (Salty Tooth) says
Salads are my favorite thing to pack and eat for lunch, even if it is kind of lazy! 🙂
jenn says
Hey, take the time to be lazy now… seriously, it seems like your life will be crazy in a couple of weeks/months!
Kelsey @ CleanTeenKelsey says
Mm, that salad looks like it was a good one. 🙂 I’m also jealous of your doughy pieces of bread! Doughy > fully cooked. For sure. 🙂
Ashley@thehungryscholar says
Be Lazy…you work too hard. 🙂
Lisa @bakebikeblog says
I really need to attempt a GF bread like that – It looks so so tasty! A weekend baking mission perhaps?!
Stacy (StacyGrowsHealthy) says
I hope you enjoy your lazy lunch 🙂
j says
Lazy? I think not. How about Work-free lunch? I would venture to say that all of us here on your blog work hard to maintain our healthy lifestyles. A Work-free lunch once in awhile is a reward and in your case, an especially delicious one;)
Hannah says
That’s hardly lazy! Lazy is a packet of chips from the vending machine. You’re just well-prepared!
Chelsea @ One Healthy Munchkin says
I’m so lazy when it comes to lunches too. I always want to try out creative new recipes, but I usually just end up having my standard sandwich or salad. 😛
Jenn (Jenn's Menu and Lifestyle Blog) says
I’ve never tried lentils on a salad, it looks sooo good though!
