I usually have some kind of protein packed lunch pack. I buy mine at Walmart in the produce section. They include cheese, fruit, nuts, etc. then some times I make my own and add boiled eggs

At work I usually have deli meat, cheese, and some sort of bread or crackers. I save my fruit and veggies for snacks.1

Usually leftovers this time of year as we are always making soups and stews.2

Salad, with sliced chicken, vegetables, balsamic vinagrette, almongs and cranberries. We have a great salad bar at work. I try and keep my lunch below 350 calories so this works for me.

Today it was leftovers - usually it's some sort of bowl consisting of quinoa, protein (chicken or salmon), and bunches of veggies. I like to throw in something pickled for a bit of tang. Convenient because I can eat it hot or cold depending on my work schedule.3

When I’m working, soup! Always soup. We make homemade soups and they’re delicious. High in salt, though.

Mixed greens, tomatoes, cucumber, steamed or baked chicken breast and top off with hemp seeds or pumpkin seeds. I also bring Soup during winter if I make a big batch for the week.2 -

Meal prep is key for me to stay on track at work (we do have a cafeteria here so it's hard to get off track if I come lunchless).
This week it's very simple ground chicken with green beans, divided into 5 portions. I cook on Sunday to last the week. Sometimes I do salad with protein, or boiled eggs with tuna/pickles. Nothing fancy, but easy that I can make once and log the week when I am tracking.0 -
I food prepped Sunday, I baked 5 chicken breasts (used different seasonings on all of them) then roasted broccoli and cubed sweet potatoes. It's been a low-cal, healthy, tasty and filling lunch all week.4
-
Usually a turkey sandwich and fruit.
Today I have and bean and cheddar burrito and a Moro blood orange.0 -
Salad bacon ranch and boiled egg. With a side of graprs. Looking for more ideas0
-

Bought sushi at the half price sale a half hour before closing at the takeaway under my office. Popped in the office fridge overnight for lunch the next day.

Leftovers from last night’s dinner!
It makes it that bit easier cooking a little extra at night, not having to put in any effort to have a tasty, nutritious lunch.1 -
Leftovers from last night's raid at the sushi takeaway below my office that does a half price sale a half hour before closing, which happens to be around the time I leave work.

Usually left overs. Retired now, but even when I was working I'd take left overs to heat up in the micro-stove in the lunchroom.
Sometimes sandwiches. Especially PBJ's! Love 'em so much I wrote a short story extolling their virtues.🤣2 -
I work at a high school, so lunches are fairly healthy if I choose to eat here. Pretty much all meals are around 500-600 calories. Everything is whole grains, baked, low sugar, light versions, etc. The food is actually pretty decent.
Today will be a Italian Sub on WG Ciabatta, spinach salad w/ Light Italian dressing, and apple slices. I get a couple other components (another veggie & fruit), but I take those home. I get a whole meal for only $3.80.
I do bring leftovers from home often, so I don't always eat here.0
