Five quick and easy lunches you need to try!

If you’re short on time on workdays or always forget to pack lunch (guilty), then you’ve come to the right place! Busy schedules are no match for the easy grab-and-go lunch options we’re about to share.

Even if you’re an avid lunch packer, we know your eyes tend to stray at midday (because nothing beats a sneaky lunchtime treat!). From salads to snacks, we’ve rounded up a whole lot of portable bites that are sure to keep you satisfied until dinner rolls around. The best part? Everything is under $10!

So, without further ado, let’s dig into the best grab-and-go lunch options available at Stockland Wetherill Park.

If you’re looking to cut out processed foods and stick to healthy lunch alternatives, then Soul Origin is the ideal spot to go! Be sure to try one of their soups (this one is $10.90 but the extra 90 cents is worth it!). A gourmet soup bound to help give you an extra boost of energy to see you through until the end of the day. Another great option is the plant-based protein pops from LeWrap for only $7.90. Once you’ve got your food sorted, you’ll need a drink to wash it all down, of course. That’s when Boost Juice comes in. Opt for their Energy Lift smoothie, made with tropical juice, mango, mango yoghurt, banana, energiser booster, and ice. 

 

For the sweet tooth

This might be an unpopular opinion, but lunch doesn’t need to be savoury! Don’t believe us? A trip to Cafe Sorella & Co will prove otherwise. Maybe you’re looking for a bite to eat between breakfast and lunch, or you’re just craving a sweet treat – their croissants will certainly do the trick. It’s not only deliciously delectable but it’s only $7 (now that’s a bargain!). Tip: add cheese to get savoury and sweet in one bite!

 

For the innovative one 

Grab and go lunch

Stuck between wanting to pack lunch and wanting to buy food out? A trip to Coles or Woolworths is perfect for you. We recommend heading straight to their deli section to choose from their selection of gourmet salads before picking up some snacks like fresh fruit, protein balls, or even some yoghurt. It’ll be as if you packed your own lunch without having to wake up early to prepare it.

If you consider yourself a picky eater then chances are you’ll need to go somewhere that has a wide variety of meals to choose from, right? If that sounds like you then you have to check out Fish N Chix. It’s a great spot for picky eaters because who doesn’t love hot chips? Otherwise, if you’re on the hunt for food readily available within minutes then you can’t go wrong with a fast-food destination like McDonald’s or KFC.
