I seem to have fallen into the toast trap! I've all these lunch variations but a lot of them seem to involve toast or (eggy) bread.

Help me out of this rut please with a toast-free lunch idea!!

Omelette.

Cherry toms, halved, with cucumber sticks and fishcakes

Mashed potato topped with cheese and beans

Oh and dd loved quesedilla - a wrap, dry frying pan, fill with grated cheese etc and fold over. fry both sides til melted cheese holds it together, slice like you would a pizza.

Baked beans on potato farls
Jacket potato with various toppings, mine like butter and cottage cheese
Frittata
Toasted sandwiches (a bit toast like though)
pitta bread with cucumber & tuna (or any filling)

Wraps,
French bread
Panini
Pasta

Savoury muffins
Sweetcorn fritters
Macaroni cheese
Risotto

All of which might be a pain to make on a regular day, but can be batch cooked and frozen.

Dd loved bits. A bit of cooked meat, cheese, dried fruit, olives salad. Basically a small bit of whatever you have in the fridge Xmas Smile

Breadsticks/rice sticks humous etc

My DS loves soup, warburtons sandwich thins with filling, penne pasta shapes with pesto and peas or wraps.

Thanks for the suggestions! Having a complete mental block at the mo thinking up new things - seem to have hit a bit of a wall. Doesn't help that DH NEVER comes up with any ideas himself! If I'm going to be out over lunch at the weekend I get "so what's DS having for lunch?"

Sigh...

Might try wrap/quesadilla tomorrow.
