Lunch:save calories smartly

With a few small changes you can make your lunch even healthier and save calories.

A good lunch is tasty and important. By making a number of small changes, you can make lunch even healthier and save calories.

Smart with sauce and dressing
A sauce or dressing gives your lunch extra taste. By choosing consciously, you can keep the calorie count of your lunch lower. Did you know, for example, that mayonnaise contains ten times as many calories as mustard.

Place your bread consciously
Do not put an extra slice of bread on your sandwich, but cover each slice separately with tasty toppings and vegetables. Perhaps a cut less is enough now.

Switch to soup
On a cold winter's day, a cup of soup is delicious for lunch. A well-filled soup will keep you full for the rest of the afternoon. Something to consider:creamy soup often contains 100 to 200 calories more per serving.
