Quick work lunch ideas!

Options
I'm a hairdresser and quite often have 10 minutes for lunch (if that sometimes) so I need lunch ideas to stop me cramming a packet of crisps into my gob as it seems to be the only thing I have time for! Lol!

    Soup
    This sounds silly but soup actually takes too long to eat lol. What with heating it and waiting for it to cool a little, then eating spoon by spoon, before you know it my next client is in and I won't have eaten more than a few spoonfuls haha! X

    A wrap or "soft" sandwich - ie, something with a spread like cream cheese or pb, protein bar or shake, yogurt with some crunchy cereal stirred in just before eating, fruit & cottage cheese, some carrot/celery sticks for snack. If you can keep whatever it is cold with fridge or cold pack, its all the better. Only problem with eating so quickly, your body doesn't have time to process that you've eaten, & it can be easy to overdo.

    I've learned to like cold leftovers. Otherwise, sandwiches (w/ bread or a wrap) are quick and filling, depending on what you put in them. Perhaps a wrap filled with shredded chicken or beef, veggies, a bit of cheese, even some smashed black or pinto beans (for fiber--so filling and nutritious).
