You don’t have to spend hours meal prepping, nor do you have to whip up meals that would rival a Michelin Star chef. We’ve come up with lunch-friendly recipes that can be made in minutes and are seriously simple and delicious.

Here are our top 5 recipes that won’t derail your diet, will satisfy your taste buds and set you up for the day ahead…

1. Coronation Chicken
