Shredded green cabbage adds a satisfying crunch, while the creamy dressing (flavored with pickle juice, but no pickles) adds tang without excess sodium. Hummus provides a creamy base that pairs perfectly with the fresh crispy vegetables. For a shortcut, swap in pre-shredded coleslaw mix instead of shredding your own cabbage.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Pickled Tuna Salad  <\/p>\n<p>Photographer: Grant Webster,\u00a0Food Stylist: Lauren McAnelly, Prop Stylist: Gabriel Greco<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_9-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> This pickled tuna salad gets its flavor from chopped dill pickles and uses the pickle brine to enhance the flavor. Serve it on a slice of toasted whole-wheat bread, on crackers or with crisp veggies for an easy snack.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Cucumber Sandwich  <\/p>\n<p>Photographer: Victor Protasio, Food Stylist: Margaret Dickey, Prop Stylist: Lydia Pursell<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_13-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> This creamy, crunchy cucumber sandwich recipe strikes a lovely balance between decadent and light. The cream cheese\u2013yogurt spread complements the crisp refreshing cucumber, while the whole-wheat bread holds everything together with hearty flavor and texture.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Veggie &amp; Hummus Sandwich  <\/p>\n<p>Photographer: Fred Hardy, Food Stylist: Margaret Monroe Dickey<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_18-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> This mile-high vegetable and hummus sandwich makes the perfect heart-healthy vegetarian lunch to go. Mix it up with different flavors of hummus and different types of vegetables, depending on your mood.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Black Bean\u2013Quinoa Bowl  <\/p>\n<p>Photography: Carson Downing, Food Stylist: Holly Dreesman, Prop Stylist: Gabe Greco<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_22-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> This black bean and quinoa bowl has many of the usual hallmarks of a taco salad, minus the fried bowl. We&#8217;ve loaded it with pico de gallo, fresh cilantro and avocado, plus an easy hummus dressing to drizzle on top.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Chickpea Salad Sandwich  <\/p>\n<p>Photographer: Caitlin Bensel, Food Stylist: Ruth Blackburn<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_26-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> This vegan chickpea salad sandwich is lemony, bright and surprisingly delicious. It&#8217;s got all the flavors of a classic tuna salad sandwich\u2014dill, lemon and a bit of garlic\u2014but with chickpeas instead to add a vegan source of protein and a healthy boost of fiber. Celery brings a nice crunch.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Cucumber-Chicken Green Goddess Wrap  <\/p>\n<p>Brie Passano<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_30-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> This quick and easy wrap rolls up for a casual stationary lunch or a meal on the go, with protein from chicken to keep you going. The green goddess dressing is creamy with cheese and avocado and bright from lemon and herbs. Cucumber and carrots add color and crunch to this healthy, robust whole-wheat wrap.\n<\/p>\n<p>  White Bean &amp; Veggie Salad  <\/p>\n<p>Ali Redmond<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_34-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> This meatless main-dish salad combines creamy, satisfying white beans and avocado. Try mixing it up with different seasonal vegetables.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Caprese Sandwich  <\/p>\n<p> Photographer \/ Jennifer Causey, Food Stylist \/ Karen Rankin, Prop Stylist \/ Christine Keely<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_38-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> This caprese sandwich is fresh from the basil and hearty from thick, crusty ciabatta. The sun-dried tomatoes deepen the flavor. Topping the bread with a layer of basil leaves and using toasted bread helps to keep the sandwich from getting soggy if you need to make it a few hours ahead.\n<\/p>\n<p>  Pear, Gorgonzola &amp; Walnut Salad  <\/p>\n<p>Photographer: Morgan Hunt Glaze, Prop Stylist: Phoebe Hausser, Food Stylist: Emily Nabors Hall<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_42-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> This pear and Gorgonzola salad celebrates fall with its beautiful colors. The light and refreshing vinaigrette offsets the tangy funk of Gorgonzola and the sweetness from the raisins and pears.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Just 10 minutes is all it takes to make one of these highly-rated lunch recipes.
