If saving time isn’t enough, you’ll also be thrilled to know you’re protecting yourself from processed sugars and empty carbs.

How to prepare a low-carb lunch? A healthy Lunchbox Swap!

Healthy Lunchbox Swap - Gluten Free Crispy Tofu

Swap out your high-carb bento box lunch for a sweet and savory Gluten-Free crispy orange tofu

Bento boxes are a great idea for people who love to eat healthy at work, but while rice is a healthier option than a salt- and carb-heavy sandwich, it is still a carbohydrate. 

You won’t regret this trade, as tofu is super filling and full of protein, leaving you feeling fuller and emotionally sated for longer. Plus, because tofu is such a diverse food, you can easily amend this recipe to suit whatever you have in the cupboards for a versatile lunchbox that won’t get boring!

What sweet treat alternatives are lunchbox and keto-friendly?

We know the cookies/cakes are part of every packed lunch we look forward to the most, and now, you can enjoy all the sweetness of tasty triple chocolate cookie cakes without worrying about the excess sugars! Switch your regular sugar-laden cookies for these Triple Choc Cookie Cakes! Satisfy that sweet tooth craving with this healthy lunchbox swap!

Whether you’re cutting down on sugar or trying to ensure your kids’ lunches are as healthy as possible, Simply Delish has your back! And your lunchbox.
