If you were ever afraid of taking salmon to work for lunch, now is the time to make ALL the salmon lunches! As long as the smells of cold or reheated salmon don't bother you or anyone in your house, it's a great idea for lunches. This salad bowl can be completely prepared ahead, or quickly thrown together with already cooked salmon. Either way, don't forget the Everything But The Bagel Seasoning!

This is one of those ones that maybe you didn't want to take to work because of the possible smells from hard boiled eggs that could waft around your office. But a good egg salad is such a filling lunch, and can go on bread, lettuce wraps, eaten by the spoonful... don't underestimate a healthy and delicious egg salad!

I'm low-key obsessed with these noodle cup lunches!! Prep as many as you want ahead of time. When lunch time rolls around, use a kettle to boil some hot water. Pour, steep, and enjoy! My favorite thing about these is now much they taste like those instant noodle cups, but definitely so much healthier!

If you have leftover cooked chicken breast and some hummus, it will go with almost any fruit and veggies you might have laying around. Search the fridge! Get creative! My favorites are cucumber, carrots and bell peppers. Quickly slice everything up at lunch time for a 5 minute prep. Just like the Starbucks version, but homemade and cheaper!

Another idea with hard boiled eggs because they're SO good for you, good to prep ahead, and good for any meal of the day. These are low carb, filling, and super quick if you've got your bacon and eggs made ahead. Slice some cheese real quick, then lunch is ready!

This is one of my all time favorite meals and here's why it's perfect as a work from home lunch: You can prep a huge batch ahead of time with no real plans (besides eating it!!). It's good by the spoonful, it's good with tortilla chips, it's good with veggies, it's good on a lettuce wrap. Make the chicken salad ahead of time, then pair it with anything easy when lunch time comes around.

Prep ahead or take 5 minutes to make an Easy Turkey Pinwheel for lunch. These are my favorite guilty pleasure deli lunch but they're so easy to make at home! Use any condiments if you're going to eat them right away. I like turkey deli meat, but they can be made with any thin sliced meat you've got in the fridge.

This gorgeous meal prep bowl can be served warm or cold - if you want to reheat the salmon, you can do that right from the comfort of your own kitchen without offending any coworkers. Love how fresh and delicious this looks! Don't be afraid of salmon meal prep!

Nothing prepped for lunch? No problem! I love the creativity and thoughtfulness behind these crispbread lunch ideas that are great for both kids and adults. Consider these a loose recipe idea and try to get creative with what you've got in your pantry!

Tuna salad is another lunch base idea that can get a bad reputation for being smelly. So make it at home! Since the tuna is already cooked, most recipes using tuna will be pretty quick. You can prep the tuna salad ahead of time, then toast up your tuna melt pita sandwiches at lunch time!

Assembling a mini meat and cheese board for lunch is what your WFH routine needs! Use any meats, crackers, cheeses, fruits and veggies you have to craft yourself an adorable little DIY Adult Lunchable. This post has a ton of ideas on what to include and how to get creative! These can be prepped ahead or assembled for lunch in just a few minutes.

Another way to try out some salmon meal prep while you're working from home. If salmon isn't a protein you would normally meal prep, I recommend giving it a try during this time to see if it's something that could work into your meal prep routine once you head back to the office. Salmon can be enjoyed hot or cold!

You might already have everything you need to create this masterpiece that takes only 15 minutes to prepare. It's quick even if you had zero time to prep anything for lunch! This is the best kind of recipe for using up fridge leftover odds and ends. Add to your work from home lunch rotation ASAP.

If you're in the mood for something hot and fresh from the oven but takes little prep, try these French Bread Pizzas. Assemble with leftovers from the fridge! They only take 5 minutes to put together, so you won't use much of your downtime making lunch. Homemade pizza does not have to be complicated!

Another tuna salad option, but made and served a bit differently. You can make the tuna salad ahead, but keep it in one big bowl and decide how you want to serve it later. On bread, on lettuce wraps, on chips, anything works. Have your tuna salad cold on lettuce one day, and hot on a pita with cheese another day!
