Lunch in Florence can become very complicated for working people to manage.
You can’t eat too much because otherwise you risk weighing yourself down and not having the energy to face the afternoon. At the same time you have to recharge your batteries and have a nutritious and balanced meal, otherwise you won’t be able to concentrate and you will just feel very tired. Not to mention that you have to eat fairly quickly, in an hour at most, so you have to find something practical and easy to eat even at your desk eventually.
Impossible?
Of course not! Here are now three ideas for a quick, nutritious and tasty lunch in Florence, ideal for working people.
Lunch break in Florence: 3 light ideas for working people
If you have to take a lunch break in Florence in a short time and want to keep light but not give up taste, here are 3 healthy and nutritious meals to try.
Salad
Salads, especially in summer, are a great lunchtime classic. They allow you to stay light but they also give you all the energy you need to keep you sharp and focused at work. Of course, as long as they contain all the necessary nutrients so vegetables, carbohydrates and protein-that way you have a complete meal to eat wherever you want.
And don’t think that a salad is a sad, bland lunch.
Avocados, tomatoes, nuts, guacamole, olives, beef tartare, and even lampredotto-these are just a few ingredients you can find on the menu at Insalateria Original to compose your own salad!
Wrap
Tasty, convenient to eat anywhere and super nutritious, a wrap is perfect for a lunch break in Florence. Best of all, you can fill them with lots of different ingredients to try something different every day. The thin piadina made with cornmeal is the perfect container for vegetables, meat, fish and sauces of all kinds. And it is much lighter than a classic sandwich because it is made with cornmeal.
At Insalateria Original you will find suggestions for wraps already composed by us or you can decide what to put in them.
Because of its convenience, you can eat your wrap wherever you want, without cutlery, even on the go or outdoors.
Smoothie
There are days when it is so hot that you would not feel like eating anything at all for lunch. On these occasions, instead of skipping lunch, opt for a fresh smoothie that will give you energy and nutrition even if you are not hungry at all. Thanks to the fresh ingredients you will fill up on vitamins, minerals and other valuable substances that you need to replenish especially when it is very hot. It also contains soy milk or coconut milk to give you nutrition. You can combine the smoothie with a cereal bar and you will have a light, quick and fresh lunch.
Skipping lunch altogether, on the other hand, is never a good idea because you risk losing concentration, feeling weak and tired after a short time. Your body needs nourishment and energy so, however little, it is always better to eat something.
