This week I started a new job . The lunch facilities are virtually none existent ( a tap and a kettle ) no fridge toaster or microwave . There is a staff canteen but I don’t want to use it . ( prefer to take my own food ) I’ve been taking a sandwich and crisps for lunch but could do with some inspiration . Anyone got a fool proof recipe for delicious pasta salads etc?
Grateful for any ideas Smile

Thankyou
I’ve never used a food flask . If the food in it is piping hot at 7am would it still be a decent temperature at 1300 ?

I take things like salad and falafel (it's filling)
I don't make the falafel myself though Grin

The food flasks are great.

Don’t get a Chilly’s hot food flask, they’re rubbish! I thought the first one I had was a bit crap so bought another one. It’s also crap. The food is still warm but not piping hot.
I usually make up a big something at the weekend. This weekend is going to be an orzo pasta salad. Boil up the orzo with a pinch of paprika or something in the water. When drained and cool, add loads of diced cucumber, red onion, peppers, whatever else crunchy in the fridge and then a whole tub of these sun blushed tomatoes and all the garlicky oil. Monday I’ll take it as it is, and then the rest of the week I’ll add some feta or goats cheese to it on different days.
