30 Tasty Vegan Lunch Ideas

June 10, 2014 8 Comments

Vegan lunch ideas have always been a challenge for me. Lunch in general has always been a challenge, actually.

Breakfast is easy. There’s cereal, coconut yogurt with granola & berries, vegan pancakes, hash browns with veggies, french toast, etc. Dinner is not necessarily easier in terms of ideas, but at that point in the day, I am more eager to make something interesting.

Lunch, on the other hand, is right in the middle of my day, which disrupts my work routine, and just frustrates me. So – I usually have either breakfast for lunch, or leftovers from dinner the night before.

Not anymore, though!

Vegan Lunch Ideas

I forced myself to put together a lost of vegan lunch ideas that would help me any time I got into a lunch rut (which seems to be often these days!). These ideas are all great for lunch, not hard to make, and many of them can be prepared the evening before, so all I have to do is heat them up (or eat them cold) for lunch the next day.

If you’ve ever had problems deciding on meal ideas for lunch, take a look at this list. Hopefully it will help us both!
