When it comes to a delicious lunch, some days you just crave something a little spicier than usual. And when you’re looking for a yummy meal that’s also going to fill you up, finding a dish that features chorizo as a main ingredient can be the perfect option. Chorizo is a popular Spanish sausage that tends to be a little spicier than American pork sausages. It’s loaded with protein and is also a good source of Vitamin B12, which helps your body better absorb iron. And since chorizo is a delicious combination of big flavor and healthy attributes, you’re probably wondering how you can bring a little more of this delicacy to your lunch life. Luckily, there are some really tasty ways to enjoy it for any meal of your day!
Chorizo can spice up any lunch from soups and salads to chili and burgers!

When you’re building business relationships, be they new or old, not everything on your agenda can be company related. After all, using your best networking skills to retain clients and grow relationships means developing a bit of a friendship that goes hand-in-hand with your working relationship. And if there’s one thing that clients really appreciate, it’s fun business outings or events that go beyond the ordinary. If you’ve been searching for something to really wow your clients this year, tickets to a baseball game just aren’t going to cut it.

When you’re looking for new ways to create a balanced lunch that leaves you feeling full and powered up for the second half of your day, bruschetta is a delicious option.

Lucky for you, there are a bunch of bruschetta alternatives that you will absolutely love to mix up this classic favorite. And we’ve compiled our favorites below!
Traditional bruschetta is delicious, but these non-traditional takes on the classic favorite will have you swooning!

Sometimes, it can feel like there’s no time in the day to fit in a trip to the gym. We get it – we’ve been there. As advocates of workplace wellness, we’re well aware of the benefits a good thirty minutes of exercise every day offer to anyone who works in an office setting. The problem is that we’re all so loaded up with stuff to do, actually getting exercise can become a bit of a pipe dream. The easiest way to combat this is to fit in a few strategic exercise moves when you have a few extra minutes throughout the day. You read that correctly: it’s time to find a few ways to work out in between your back-to-back meetings or while you’re taking a break from reviewing all those spreadsheets this afternoon. Inspired, and looking for more? We’ve got the best desk workouts for you to try out today.
Replacing your office chair with an exercise ball can be a great way to work on your abs while you’re getting things done!

As you’re finding new and exciting ways to bring healthier meals into your lunchtime options, one super tasty, nutrition packed way to do it is by choosing dishes inspired by the Mediterranean diet. And we’re not just talking about adding more hummus into your weekly routine. Instead, we’re referring to how you can incorporate more of the delicious ingredients like Kalamata olives, feta cheese, and fresh veggie goodness that comes with your favorite Greek meals into a healthy diet.
But we don’t just love Greek food because of the flavor; we love that it’s also a super healthy way to live. What this means is adopting a balanced, lean way of approaching foods. This particular meal plan is packed with fresh fruits and veggies, hearty whole grains, and lean fish. And eating in the way of the people along the Mediterranean coast has awesome benefits: it’s been proven to lower your risk of heart disease and reduce your risk of getting Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. So to help you take the next step and bring some of this delicious fare into your weekly routine, we’ve come up with some of our favorite lunchtime meal choices that offer a tasty Greek spin.

Here at Waiter.com, we love a good Caprese salad. The delicious taste combo of fresh mozzarella cheese, juicy tomatoes, basil and balsamic vinaigrette is enough to make us crave the same meal for days. Since this is usually better as a meal appetizer as opposed to a full lunchtime spread, you might be hesitant to order a Caprese salad as your whole midday meal delivery choice. But did you know there are a lot of ways you can order the flavor of this Italian favorite in a meal that’s a bit more filling? We love when restaurants bring the Caprese salad to their lunch options in unexpected ways. If your taste buds are tantalized, here are our four favorite lunchtime choices to get that delicious Caprese taste in a non-salad way!
While we love a good caprese salad, it’s not super filling on it’s own. Try these delicious takes on this traditional lunch for all the flavor, but a meal that’s a little more filling!

In the midst of the holiday season, it can seem a little overwhelming to start thinking about your plan for the first few weeks of the new year. But for many of your employees, planning how to ring in the New Year – and the resolutions they’ll make at the stroke of midnight – is top of mind right now, even amid the craziness of the holidays. And since losing weight and sticking to a healthier lifestyle is one of the top wellness goals made every year by Americans, you can safely bet that a lot of your employees are planning to do whatever they can to live better in 2015.
Because healthier employees can ultimately have a highly positive impact on your company’s bottom line, supporting your staff’s goals to live healthier, and making it easier for those who already live this way to expand their lifestyle choice, is certainly in your best interest. And since the workplace can often be the place where it’s hardest to stick to these kinds of goals, with all the cookies, lunches out, and easy-to-access (but typically unhealthy) vending machine snacks, your staff will definitely appreciate your efforts. But when it comes down to it, what are the most effective ways for you to support these kinds of goals? Read on to find out more.
Consciously offering healthier corporate catering options can support your team’s wellness goals in 2015!

A change has been made regarding how chain restaurants must display their menu – namely, that large chains will need to list out the calorie count for each menu item in an effort to create more transparency across the food industry. It’s a great move that will hopefully help more Americans understand how food is prepared differently in restaurants than it is at home. The intent is to also help people make healthier decisions as a culture shift has been felt across the nation to support better food choices and promote a more active environment for American families. So with that being said, how will this new guideline affect you on a daily basis? We’ll examine just that below.
New menu guidelines will help you better understand how to choose healthier lunch delivery options – and they could even affect your office vending machine!
