Packed lunch make ahead ideas

Making packed lunches in the morning is really starting to irk. My kids have aged out of the free school meals and now we have to make lunch everyday but the mornings are bad enough without that.

Any suggestions for things which are good to make the night before? Good sandwich fillings which won’t make the bread soggy, or any bento style ideas? Hit me with your packed lunches!

Tuna pasta with peppers and sweetcorn keeps well, if they don't eat tuna chicken works too.
Hummus carrot, cucumber, pepper sticks. Breadsticks.
Cheese and crackers
Could they take a food flask?
As for sandwich fillings, it's usually the veg that makes sandwiches soggy. The sandwich thins are pretty hardy though.

Fritata is also great for lunch boxes. Make on a Sunday and will keep in the fridge until tues/weds.
