Master the art of improvising your lunch, using whatever you've got lying around, with this simple cookbook.

When your cupboard is looking a bit bare, it's hard to get inspired to make lunch for the day ahead. We can often run out of inspiration too, meaning we end up with the same dull lunch every day - or worse yet, buying every meal out and about. Those costs add up.

The 5-Minute 5-Ingredient Lunchbox aims to streamline your lunch each day according to what you have lying around. Some forgotten rice or grains in the cupboard? Or a random assortment of tinned veggies? These 52 recipes will show you how to quickly turn them into a nutritious and delicious lunch. Plenty of these lunchbox ideas are also vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and/or dairy-free. There's also advice throughout on how to make bulk lunches for your week, if that's your style, and how you might be able to overhaul last night's leftovers into a great midday meal.
