Schiscetta: recipes for the office lunch break
Schiscetta: what to bring for lunch at the office? Ideas by Provolone Valpadana
Having lunch at the office by preparing simple and quick recipes at home is a very healthy and economical habit. All the advice of Provolone Valpadana DOP on lunch box proposals.
Lunch at the office is one of the biggest worries for those who are away from home for work all day and would not like to give up a healthy and balanced diet. Furthermore, eating out every day means spending at least €10-15 daily, a factor that could affect monthly savings.
Not everyone works in companies that have a canteen available, but many do have common areas that include tables, microwaves, refrigerators, and everything you need to eat a meal previously prepared at home.
Many, in fact, prefer to equip themselves with the so-called “schiscetta”, a daily meal stored in special containers, prepared the night before in the right portions to be consumed in the office.
If you are among those who prefer this type of lunch break, perhaps the only "obstacle" remains the ideas: it is not always easy to invent new recipes, good and balanced that are quick to prepare and practical to transport.
Office Lunch Box: Choose According to the Time of Year
The suggested recipes for meals to be consumed in the office also vary according to the season.
It is true that the lunchbox must be practical and quick, but this does not mean that we must forget the taste and the possibility of varying the ingredients based on the season of the year.
There are meals that, due to their properties and characteristics, provide comfort during the winter season, while others, due to their ability to be consumed cold, are ideal for the spring/summer season. Let's look at some of them together.
Office Lunch Recipes for Fall and Winter
During the colder periods, you want to eat a warm meal that, preferably, gives a nod to seasonal ingredients.
