Menu Planning/Menu contents/Lunch
Included in a lunch should be a protein, grains, a fruit and a vegetable. Lunch offers a midday break during work hours, and it can thus be leisurely or very fast. What works best for your establishment should be determined on how long workers have to eat during their lunch breaks. Regardless of the speed required, however, quality should not come down.
Lunch ideas include:
- Sandwiches; plain, toasted, deep-fried or grilled
- Chicken, beef or seafood (grilled, roasted, broiled, baked, etc.)
- Rice
- Salads (Cesar, Greek, chef, coleslaw, chicken, fruit, antipasto, others)
- Various kinds of fruits, especially ones that can be knocked about if the meal is going out of the restaurant
- Soups
- Tacos
