Lighter Lunch in Las Colinas: Ideas for Office Workers
A five-question checklist for choosing a lighter lunch in Las Colinas, with plain ingredient lists from our short menu so you can decide for yourself.
By Tiffins ToGo. Updated October 17, 2026.
Looking for a lighter lunch in Las Colinas you can actually stick to on a workday? Use a five-question checklist at any counter: what is the main thing in it, are there vegetables or fruit in it, what am I drinking, can I see what is in it, and is it a size I will finish. At Tiffins ToGo, inside Urban Center Market at 387 E Las Colinas Blvd, Suite 106, every item has a short, plain ingredient list, from the vegetarian Hummus Wrap ($8.95) to three fruit smoothies. We are open 11 AM to 7 PM daily.
We do not tell you what to eat, and we don't publish nutrition numbers. We show you exactly what is in each item so you can decide.
Order now, open until 7 PM: Order on DoorDash or Order on Uber Eats. Pickup is at Suite 106 inside Urban Center Market, 387 E Las Colinas Blvd.
What "lighter" means here (and what it does not)
"Lighter" is a loose word. Different people mean more vegetables, a smaller portion, no meat, or simply "something that does not make me sleepy at 3 PM."
So this guide does not tell you what to eat. It gives you a simple checklist and the plain ingredient list for every item we make, so you can decide for yourself.
The five-question work lunch checklist
Run these questions at any counter in Las Colinas or anywhere in Irving.
- What is the main thing in it? Look for something you recognize, such as grilled chicken, beans, vegetables or fruit.
- Are there vegetables or fruit in it? Tomato, greens, cucumber or fruit all count.
- What am I drinking? Water is simple. A fruit smoothie is a fine treat, but it is still a sweet drink.
- Can I see what is in it? A short, plain ingredient list is easier to judge than a long one.
- Is it a size I will finish? A lunch you eat half of and toss is not a good deal in any sense.
No question has a right answer. The point is to make the choice on purpose.
Lighter lunch in Las Colinas: ideas for work, by situation
Here are practical ideas that do not need a kitchen or a microwave.
If you want more vegetables. Look for wraps and sandwiches with vegetables inside, not just on the side. Ask whether you can add extra greens or tomato. Many counters will say yes.
If you want a meatless lunch. Hummus is a common base for vegetarian wraps. Hummus is made from chickpeas.
If you want something light. A smaller order, such as a wrap and a water, can be enough for a lighter lunch day.
If you want something filling. A sandwich with a protein, cheese and vegetables is a more substantial option. Pair it with water.
If you are eating at your desk. Pick food that does not need utensils. Wraps and sandwiches fit that.
If you avoid dairy. Check smoothie bases. Many smoothies use yogurt or milk, so ask what is in the cup before you order.
How a short menu helps you choose
Long menus make choosing harder. A short menu makes it easier to apply the checklist, because you can compare everything in under a minute.
