Lunchtime is soooooo boring.....

[Callisto]

....dd and I end up eating bread, cheese and salad everyday. Can anyone give me any quick lunchtime ideas? I am a sahm so happy to spend a bit of time on prep. DD doesn't like eggs btw.

Tuna/sweetcorn pasta salad?

sometimes we have
cheese crackers and ham
pasta salad
mini homemade pizzas.

I can't eat tuna 'cos of overfishing, but pasta salad is a great idea, as are homemade pizza. What do you use for the base?

beans on toast
grilled cheese
pitta with humous and salad
baked potato with vairous toppings, homemade chilli, cheesy beans, tuna and sweetcorn.
homemade pizza

make pizza dough or buy pizza bases

couscous salad on same lines as pasta salad.

pasta in tom. sauce with grated cheese

pasta and pesto

pasta and brocolli and grated cheese

Can you tell my kids like pasta? Actually I do various eggy things quite a bit too.

or you could use pitta

you can do pizzas on crumpets or muffins or split french bread....

we ither buy small pizza bases or english muffins cut in half. Another is pittabread pizza...yummy

Thanks, so much. Some excellent suggestions, esp the muffin pizza's. Lunchtime will be an extravaganza of creativity from now on...
