lunch ideas

[HelloBoys]

No idea if I'm on the right spot but would like some lunch ideas.

I seem to keep trotting round same stuff. Stuff I like:-

• M&S Avocado sandwiches (high in cals?)

• M&S Feta, pasta, leaf and tomato salad
  M&S baby potato salad with 2 of their pork pies (mini) or Scotch eggs (this option (3rd one is a treat lunch*).

• soup - vary tend to try and get cheaper ones eg Sainsburys specials.

I pair this with yoghurt or Muller rice and sometimes fruit.

I've made courgette soup (with basil or oregano and Philadelphia cheese) and sometimes do chicken vegetable one. also sometimes bring in a pasta bake leftovers meal.

Any ideas for healthier options?

How about couscous with spicy chicken & chickpeas or roasted veg? or cooked tortilla & salad?

Or you could swap your mini pork pies for cooked salmon to make your potato salad treat a little healthier.

What about wraps? Some yummy roasted pepper & halloumi ones on BBC Good Food website.

Can you get a wide neck flask so that you have more options for hot meals?

Do you want to buy your lunch ready done or prepare your own more?

OldBean - yes, that does sound nice. I could do it as leftovers too. A wrap would be nice too.

I do have a wide neck flask - what could go in there?

JiltedJohns - I want to do both really. Call me spoiled but I preferred when I worked somewhere with an "Eat" as I like their food as opposed to Pret.

chilli and a salad make a good combo, you can add a pita or a bun to fill it out a bit

Sold - that is nice actually. I quite like Pitas.

At work we have a microwave, toaster and Mean Lean Grilling Machine... so i should have lots of options to heat etc.
