    I intend to make overnight oats with lots of fruit when I go back to my job in June.

    Where's the veggies? ;)
    I usually do leftovers. Or sandwich, baked chips and fruit. Or something with a grain, veggie and protein - like, 6-grain rice, chicken and broccoli. Or steak, quinoa and corn & kale. Or tofu, veggies and brown rice.
    And salads with lots of stuff in it (nuts, dried fruits, protein, rice, veggies, etc...)
    curry and rice.

    Whatever is leftover from last night's dinner. Also been doing a lot of chix noodle soup or chix and rice soup since a whole can is about 200 calories and I can nosh it at my desk.

    Cooked and chilled rice with chopped peppers and cucumber in, small piece of protein (baked chicken breast, hot smoked salmon flakes, a bit of sausage) shredded spinach leaves and a dressing made from low-sodium soy sauce, sesame oil and rice vinegar or lime. Low calorie and very flavoursome.

    When it's summer I like roasting cherry tomatoes, garlic and peppers and mixing it with couscous (made with 50:50 veg stock and orange juice, for flavour). Then having it with a leftover grilled hamburger and some hummus.
