I have no strict lines I draw, but generally I lean towards eating low amounts of beef and cold cuts, for both climate and health reasons.

My philosophy is broadly one of harm reduction, where I don't necessarily cut anything fully out, but try to choose options that are better for my health and the environment when possible. This basically translates to leaning towards high-protein legume based alternatives as staples - the lunch I eat most frequently is falafel in pita with a variety of vegetables, sauces and hummus: all vegan and pretty respectable with regards to protein - and choosing chicken when I eat meat over other types of meat.

Have you tried hummus grated carrot and sultana wraps? Winning combo.

I have not, but I generally eat out for lunch and don't do the primary cooking at home, so it might be a while before I get a good chance to try.

In fact, the thing I cook the most is microwaved oatmeal, which I flavour with banana milkshake whey and some milk. Not a particularly culinarily sophisticated meal, but healthy and in the very least vegetarian.
