#ad Quick and Easy Lunches for On the Go!

Being super busy has become a way of life for me. Managing a digital department, being a good blogger and loving my furchild take up a lot of my time.

It is so easy to cheat and go get fast food when you live a very busy lifestyle. I have learned to adapt and pick easier things to make at home, without sacrificing health. Quick and easy lunches have become a necessity for me.

After a quick run into H-E-B, I can grab some Wright® Brand Applewood Smoked Bacon and Tyson® Better for You Lightly Breaded Chicken Strips, and I have an assortment of quick and easy lunches for the week.

Plus, look for the on pack stickers on your Wright Brand, State Fair and Tyson back-to-school products and enter to WIN 1 of 20 H-E-B $100 Gift Cards.

And if you are a H-E-B shopper, check out this coupon for Wright Bacon. Be sure to search Wright Bacon in the search box.

My two favorite recipes to make with this combo take less than 30 minutes to make, plus they are super tasty!

My recipes today are a easy Southwest Chicken Salad and a quick Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap.

I love how easy and versatile the lightly breaded chicken strips are, and they are only 150 calories per serving! You can use the chicken strips in different salads, wraps, by theirselves, in a biscuit – the possibilities are endless!

Pro tip: If you are prepping for the week, cook the bacon in the oven on a cookie sheet! Be sure you don’t burn it, but you will get all the bacon done faster without getting burnt!

I like to pack my salads in a jar, lettuce first. But when I get to go home for my lunch break, it nice to have in a bowl like I have my life together – ha!

As for the wrap, I actually eat it cold. It reminds me of the ones you would find pre-made at Whole Foods (but for so much cheaper).

Now, if you are really in a hurry, I recommend purchasing State Fair® Corn Dogs! I you buy these at H-E-B, you can actually get a free children’s book or popsicles with your purchase!

I love to eat my corn dogs with jalepeno ranch, but the classic mustard is perfectly acceptable too!

These are really great to pack in your kids lunches as well! Plus, who doesn’t love a State Fair® Corn Dog?

My favorite thing about these corn dogs is they have a 100 percent beef option! It is a quick and easy source of protein and all you need is a microwave!

What is your favorite on the go meal?
