Watch as Parents Magazine shows you healthy lunch ideas during pregnancy! Knowing what to eat during pregnancy can be as simple as having a few healthy lunch recipes under your belt to mix things up each day. These healthy lunch ideas are about 500 calories. Try two slices of whole wheat bread, a large whole wheat pita, or a cup or wild or brown rice. These give you fiber and other key nutrients. Add three ounces of grilled or rotisserie chicken breast, 3/4 cup of beans or tofu, or three ounces of canned tuna in water. For a healthy pregnancy, eat no more than six ounces of tuna each week. Get your greens with two cups of any non-starchy vegetable you enjoy, such as leafy greens, carrots, peppers, cucumbers, or onions. These easy, healthy meals are the perfect lunch ideas for pregnant women!
