Lunch Magazine

While dinner is the first step in eating more sustainably, the next step is lunch. For anyone who is trying to replace their salami or cheese sandwich, and is tired of eating plain hummus everyday, we’ve created 20 easy and low-impact lunch ideas.

Just to manage your expectations: we use hummus as well but more as a base for creative combinations. These ideas will help you to eat more veggies and plenty of protein from legumes and nuts. And… you will also learn about the most important aspects of a sustainable and healthy lunch.

• 20 easy lunch ideas:
• The climate impact of lunch compared to dinner
• A shocking story about whole grain (we were really surprised!)
• What matters most for a healthy lunch
• Butter vs Margarine
• How different cheeses compare (if you do crave a cheese sandwich)
• … and more!

The setup is similar to the Fork Ranger book, which covers typical dinner recipes and gives an introduction to eating for the climate. So this lunch e-book is Fork Ranger Volume 2! We also included more answers to health questions (such as with bread) because a sustainable and healthy diet go hand in hand.

The magazine is printed on 100% recycled paper. We haven't made the comparison calculation of a food swap with the CO2 impact of the magazine (as we did for the book and seasonal calendar) just yet.

All lunch ideas can be saved in the free Fork Ranger app which allows you to mark them as favorite, adjust portion sizes and create a grocery shopping list.

All sources that have been used for the topics mentioned above have been added in the back of the Magazine, so you can easily dive more into it if you like to.

Is there an English version?

Because the magazine is made for the Dutch context of eating sandwiches for lunch, we’ve only printed a Dutch version. But you can get a digital English version here.
