It seems I grab lunch on the go everyday. I dont really have lunch items at home to make because I am out of ideas. Can someone offer me some good healthy lunch ideas that are tasty and fulfilling???

    I keep a whole container of oatmeal at work. I always have a water bottle so in a pinch I will eat a breakfast meal for lunch. Takes all of two minutes and no longer hungry or out looking for drive thrus.

    clean egg salad sandwitch (made from hard boiled eggs, cottage cheese and mustard) on whole wheat bread

    tuna salad sandwitch

    cottage cheese, a banana and hummus with pretzels

    left over (once again i like mine cold) fried in olive oil with butter seasoned with flour and choice of seasonings tilipia fillets

    baked beans and a sweet potato topped with light butter and cinnamon

    Thanks for all of the tips... I try and not make any leftover or my husband or I will eat it because "its there" Maybe I could make some single serve portions and foodsaver it.

    I have some really yummy bread that I get at the apline store that is a multgrain I just didnt know a good option for topping. I am not a mustard fan but when I use mayo its light. I just dont like a dry sandwhich but I dont care for the taste of mayo.
