Ways to use this wheel

  • Office Lunch Group Decider: Coworkers spin to agree on a healthy lunch spot.
  • Sunday Meal Prep Generator: Spin 5 times to dictate your weekly packed lunch menu.

Beating the midday slump

Repeating the same sandwich gets dull. The wheel suggests lunches such as a club sandwich, a grain bowl, tomato soup with grilled cheese or a sesame chicken salad.

Use it for packed lunches or for choosing where to eat at work. Spin on Sunday to plan the week, and prepare components ahead of time.

Adapting it

Replace the ideas with meals you can make quickly, and add options that travel well. For schools, check allergy rules before packing. Cooking for a family can be easier if everyone adds a favorite to the wheel.
