Try the New “Lunch on the Go” Cookbook
Lunch doesn’t get enough credit. After all, this midday meal can give you the energy boost you need to finish your day strong. Whether you’re taking a road trip, going to work, enjoying lunch before or after dialysis treatment, or even going on a picnic, Today’s Kidney Diet: Lunch on the Go offers quick and simple lunch ideas that are easy to bring with you.
In this cookbook you’ll find 14 easy recipes that pack up nicely. There are snacks, salads, sides and sandwiches to give your lunch a little variety. Often times people skip lunch because they are busy, or they may stop at fast food or convenience stores, which don’t always offer healthy choices for people with kidney disease. Many of these foods have too much sodium or phosphorus additives. Having consistent meals each day can support a healthy diet for people with kidney disease and even those with diabetes. Getting enough calories, protein and nutrients can support the activities we love most, such as spending time with family and friends, and staying out of the hospital.
You’ll also find helpful tips in this cookbook, including how to choose healthy convenience snacks, simple lunch ideas, food safety tips, how to use leftovers for lunch and low-phosphorus snack ideas.
