Light Lunch Recipes

Soups, vegetables, sandwiches and savory bowls for a flexible midday meal.

Where to begin

“Light” describes the feel of the meal, not a calorie promise. Pair the sandwich or oatmeal with fruit, serve the soup with toast, or turn the roasted cauliflower into a fuller plate with grains and a protein you enjoy.

Creamy Mushroom Soup

Deeply savory mushroom soup with thyme, garlic, sherry, and a modest splash of cream for a silky finish.
