Lunch can be that stubborn meal of the day where you’re either hesitant of what to eat or are afraid you’ll eat too much.

If you’re still unsure what a low-calorie lunch should look like, check out these five easy lunches that are each under 300 calories. You’ll definitely see that eating within calorie restrictions actually isn’t all that restrictive. You still get a lot of delicious food that works with your body instead of against it.
