Recipes for the most delicious and simple meals that you can put in your bag and go for knowledge.

At the beginning of the school year, I always think of the ever-hungry students from my home university. We went hungry not because there were not enough rubles for lunch, but because there was especially nowhere to eat. The dining room and the food in it left much to be desired, the hamburgers and hot dogs on the "ruins" were a gastronomic horror, there was nowhere to warm up the lunch brought from home. I don’t know how the quality of food in the alma mater canteen has changed in recent years, but the signs of a good lunch to go are definitely not changing.

A proper student lunch is one that:

• no need to warm up;
• stored outside the refrigerator for a long time (and had to sit out seven pairs);
• replenishes the supply of energy and nutrients;
• promotes brain activity;
• delicious, naturally.

This list is fully consistent with a variety of sandwiches, rolls and sandwiches, whatever they are called. To maintain brain activity, you need to take dessert with you, and for normal metabolism - tea or compote.

A sample menu for the school week - in order.

The first day

Dinner

Let's start Monday with a regular beef patty burger. But for fun, so as not to get upset about the past summer and weekends, the sandwich will be in a bagel. Beef contains a lot of iron, zinc and creatine, which are essential for muscle growth. A great way to recover from a long rest and get in the mood for work.

Ingredients:

• 1 wide bagel, preferably with sesame seeds
• 2 beef patties 100 g each;
• leaves of any salad (which you like best), other greens to taste;
• 1 tomato;
• 50 g of your favorite cheese;
• 4 tablespoons tomato paste;
• 2 tablespoons of unsweetened yogurt or sour cream

For a lighter lunch option, the meat can be baked in the oven and a slice of baked beef can be used instead of the cutlet.

Preparation

Cut the donut in half horizontally. Fry the cutlets and place a slice of cheese on top of them a minute before being done so that it melts slightly. Put a leaf of lettuce, a tomato, a cutlet with cheese on the bagel cut, then repeat the layers in reverse order. At any time, you can sprinkle your burger with yogurt or tomato paste as you like.

Dessert

Since the burger itself is large and nutritious, a light dessert should be provided for it. It can be any fresh fruit, except for a banana (a banana is too high in calories, it is too much for a burger to be close to).

It is better to drink herbal teas with ginger and mint at the beginning of the week: these herbs and spices have a tonic effect, which is very useful for a start. Mint also pairs well with cardamom.

Second day

Dinner

Take a cheese and spinach sandwich with us.

Ingredients:

• 100 g soft cheese;
• 4 slices of grain bread;
• 1 tomato;
• 100 g spinach (fresh or thawed)
• butter;
• seasonings to taste.

Preparation

Chop spinach finely and sauté in butter with spices. Place the spinach mass, a piece of cheese and a tomato slice on top of the bread. Add a few olives if desired.

If you don't like spinach, replace it with any grilled vegetables.

Dessert

As a dessert for a light lunch, take marshmallows or marshmallows with you, and put raspberry leaves, cinnamon and orange peel in tea - they perfectly tone up.

Day three

Dinner

Sandwich with chicken breast salad or any part of the chicken. These sandwiches relieve hunger for a long time. Nuts make the brain work better, and unusual sauce brings variety to the menu.

Ingredients

For the salad:

• 200 g of boiled chicken breast;

Drink this beauty with herbal tea with fennel and linden. These herbs help the immune system, which is very important in the fall.

Day four

Dinner

Fish day! Fish contains healthy fats and acids, as well as iodine, which is necessary for high mental stress.

• lettuce and herbs to taste.

Preparation

Mash fish from a jar with a fork or buy special canned food for salads. Cut the egg, add half to the fish. Mix with butter. Cut the bun in half, make a depression in it, add lettuce, tomato slices and fish filling.

Dessert

Take homemade apple chips for dessert.

Ingredients:

• 3 hard apples;
• 2 hard pears;
• 2 lemons;
• ½ cup sugar.

Preparation

Wash the fruit and cut into thin slices. Squeeze the juice from the lemons and dilute it with water (a quarter of a glass is enough). Put chopped fruit in this mixture. In a saucepan, mix a glass of water with sugar, bring to a boil and cook until the solution thickens (this will take about 7 minutes). Then add fruit to the syrup and wait for the liquid to boil. Then place the fruit on a baking sheet lined with parchment and dry it for three hours in the oven at 100 ° C. After an hour and a half, the fruit must be turned over.

Put oregano, lemon zest and thyme into the tea. This combination relieves fatigue and helps the nervous system cope with stress.

Day five

Dinner
