I've had sandwiches/wraps every day for 2 weeks and I'm starting to go crazy Confused

What can I make that's quick and easy? I don't like eggs. Salad wouldn't fill me up!

What are you all having for lunch?

When I’m bored of bread a few things I like are
Hot smoked salmon with a tin of mixed beans (super easy and no cooking or prep)
Conscious with whatever is in the fridge chucked in
Make up a bowl of pasta salad - again for super easy I check on prawns or mozzarella some cucumber and a packet of sunblush tomatoes (without draining off the oil).
Baked potato
Tuna mayo and sweet corn on salad (know you said it doesn’t fill you up but I find tuna just for some reason does).
Noodles with chicken and soy sauce and whatever veg I have to hand

I know what you mean about tuna! It does fill me up.

I’ve been making a big pot of soup, that usually does enough for two days. I feel like with us all at home there’s a lot of washing up, so anything I can cook once/eat twice is good. DD doesn’t like soup so she usually has wraps/cheese/veg instead.

I’d love to go out for a Pret sandwich these days.

DW loves soup but it leaves me STARVING!

I miss Pret. And Subway. And Costa. And Simmons. And even McDonalds. I HATE MAKING MY OWN LUNCHES.
