Meals on the go?

Starting next week, I'll be taking a class that meets two nights a week and I won't have time to eat dinner. Basically, I'll be stopping at home, changing clothes and walking right back out the door. I don't want to rely on fast food and I don't want to eat sandwiches the whole time. Does anyone have any suggestions on meal ideas that can be eaten cold and on the go? I am not interested in shakes or smoothies - I just don't like drinking my meals.

Thanks!

    Meaure out some nuts, seeds, fruits and veggies. Beef jerky, trail mix, hard boiled eggs (if you can keep a cooler).

    I really like the gopicnic meals. I use them when we are on the go and don't have time for meals. The key would be to find a day that you can prep meals for yourself to just grab and go.

    Do you like sushi?

    Or how about chinese food? Some Rice or Noodle dishes can be nice cold. I used to take a home-made ham-fried-rice with me as a packed lunch in the past...

    Yogurt, fresh fruit, pack cubes of cheese and meat in a container with some fresh veggies/olives to eat out of hand or in a wrap?

    Cheese and crackers would work. I eat the big Wheat thins with Babybel cheese for a snack and it's filling. How about picking up a yogurt? Greek yogurt is filling and you could eat it quickly.
