FFC Registered Dietitian Approved Lunch Guide

Level up your lunch game with our registered dietitian approved lunch guide! Lunch is just as important as any other meal of the day. Eating lunch helps raise your blood sugar to give you the energy needed for a productive afternoon. It also breaks up your day to day tasks and acts as a “reset” for the second half of the day.

From mouth watering bowls to satisfying salads and savory sandwiches, our lunch guide will elevate your midday meal and make sure you’re getting the appropriate nutrients to keep you full and fueled throughout your day. Visit ffc.com/nutrition to download your copy today!
