I work at KFC and I keep eating their meals at lunch, and I was wondering if anyone had any simple recipes for pasta salads or what lunches you take to work that keep you full? Thanks!

    I tend to use grains and lentils as a base for lunches more than pasta because I find that I can eat more for the calories it provides. It can be done fairly cheaply even if you cheat and use pre-cooked stuff.

    For example today I used half a pack of Merchant Gourmet Bulga lentils (£1.99 per pack), chopped in tomatoes, red pepper, spring onion, gherkins and then put some anchovies on top.

    If you are not keen on fish then a little bit of plain chicken, other lean meat or even feta cheese on the top is just as good. Sometimes if I want to change the flavour I add lemon juice or even piri piri hot sauce (not with the fish though)
