Lunch Break with Wild Roots: The Sunset Miso
Your fresh, feel-good lunch pick for busy South Bay days
There's a lot competing for your attention during the middle of the day.
Emails. Meetings. Errands. School pickup. Your afternoon workout. And somehow, lunch still needs to happen.
That's where Lunch Break with Wild Roots comes in—a monthly pick for a fresh, satisfying meal that's made for busy South Bay days.
This month, we're reaching for something bright, flavorful, and packed with protein: The Sunset Miso.
September's Pick: The Sunset Miso
The Sunset Miso brings together fresh ahi tuna, wild lettuce mix, Persian cucumbers, edamame beans, fresh mint, mandarin oranges, quinoa, and miso ginger dressing.
It's a combination that hits all the right notes!
The ahi tuna brings a clean, satisfying source of protein, while quinoa and edamame add substance to keep lunch feeling like an actual meal—not something you'll be hungry for again an hour later.
Then there's the flavor. Crisp Persian cucumbers add a refreshing crunch. Fresh mint brings a bright, cool note. Sweet mandarin oranges add a burst of citrusy flavor, while the miso ginger dressing pulls everything together with savory depth and a little warmth from the ginger.
Fresh, crunchy, savory, sweet, and satisfying—there's a lot happening in every bite.
And with 30 grams of protein and 9 grams of fiber, the Sunset Miso is built to keep you going through the rest of your afternoon.
Salad or Wrap? You Choose!
One of the best things about the Sunset Miso is that your lunch can fit the way you're spending your day.
Heading to the office? Keep it as a salad for a fresh, crisp lunch that's easy to enjoy at your desk, at home, or wherever the day takes you.
Taking lunch on the beach? Turn it into a wrap when you want something a little more portable and easy to take with you.
Why the Sunset Miso is Our October Pick
October is when the South Bay starts settling into its fall rhythm. Summer is winding down, schedules are getting busier, and there's still plenty to do before the year is over.
That's why we're looking for a lunch that checks three important boxes:
It's fresh. Crisp cucumbers, fresh mint, mandarin oranges, and wild greens keep every bite bright and refreshing.
It's satisfying. Ahi tuna, quinoa, and edamame make this a protein-forward lunch with 30 grams of protein and 9 grams of fiber.
It's flexible. Choose a salad or wrap depending on how you want to spend your lunch break. Or, switch up the protein to change it up a bit!
