End of the year is the busiest time for many of us – but it should not be an excuse for not nourishing ourselves well, in advance of the celebrations. Be sure to pack a healthy snack or a light lunch with you and your kids, especially if you’re looking at a busy day ahead.

Our nutritious chicken sandwich (or do you prefer Turkey?) can be prepared in the evening, and it will keep you going for a good part of the next day. It is the favorite carry-on meal of the twin mother and Singapore Mumpreneur of the Year, Kareen Lai, who often finds herself hopping from a workout session to another without much of a break.

For kids’ snack we recommend the Super Easy Guacomole – ideally with fresh Crudités – that can be whipped up in minutes. And for a comfort meal at home, you can’t go wrong with our Chicken’n Egg Rice prepared with wholesome brown rice. To make most of your time, set aside a chicken breast from this recipe to make that take-away sandwich. And get ready to celebrate – with energy levels up.
