Make-it-through-the-Day Desk Drawer Stashes

At work and you feel like you need food NOW? Rather than reaching for the
change for the vending machine, reach in your desk draw and be ready when
hunger strikes…

· Instant Oatmeal packets in flavors such as cinnamon, apple, banana, or
blueberry
· Vegetable, bean, split pea or lentil soup in heat-and-serve cans or instant
dry soup cups
· Small packs or cans of water-packed tuna and small cans of veggies
(don’t forget the can-opener!)
· Light microwave popcorn
· Raisins, dried apricots and single-serve shelf-stable containers of peaches
or pears packed in water or juice
· Single-serve containers of 100% fruit juice such as orange juice
