Do you pack a lunch?

I pack lunch every day, I got sick of sandwiches pretty quick too though, now on the weekend I make a big batch of soup, or anything I can freeze, portion it out into 4-5 containers, and take one to work and heat it up in the microwave.
Salads are still good, try putting chicken breast or boiled eggs or low fat cheese in them to make them more filling, or even some pasta.
Wraps are good alternatives to sandwiches too, and really good if you can toast them rice cakes too!...not toasted though
You can have anything really Leftover dinners are the best!

I pack lunch every day, usually a salad, but on rare occasion will bring a frozen Lean Cuisine.

I cut up a bunch of romaine lettuce and keep it in a large container in the fridge, so in the morning I just have to put some in a smaller tupperware and add other veggies and lean turkey deli meat or grilled chicken.

Progress light soup, many flavors and filling.

I pack Progresso soups, lean cuisines, salads (with grilled chicken or turkey), sometimes I'll make some brown rice and veggies the night before and pack them for lunch lot's of choices! I almost always bring a low calorie yogurt as well for my "dessert"

I bring a lunch every single day - except Wednesday when our cafeteria has this fabulous Salsa Chicken and salad dish.

Anyways, I usually bring left overs from my previous nights dinner. I always try to make extra so that I can just pack a small portion to bring for lunch.

I also pre-cut all my veggies on the weekend so I can just grab them and go.

I bring Tomato-Cucumber Salads, yogurt, a banana or mixed berries, and a lean protein such as a boiled egg/omelette, or piece of chicken.

I bring lunch every single day and often it is a salad.

I know you said salad gets boring but there are so many different salads you can make. I always have a deent amount of protein in (I eat seafood but no other animals) so it could be tuna, salmon, smoked salmon, prawns (shrimp)... And there's Asian salads or Mediterranean style salads, a millions different dresings. If you post a thread titled "What's your favourite salad recipe?" you'd get a million different responses.

Otherwise another good option is frittata. You can make a big one or single serve ones in muffin tins. Again, there's a million different combinations

Yes ,lunches can get boring but there are millions of ideas out there. Lunches depend on if you have access to a fridge or microwave. I found a great secret that can make your lunches more interesting, get yourself a dish that has sections in it, like the stayfit brands, mine even has a freezerpack built into the lid, as well as a slot with a fork and knife. in the sections (3 in this type) pack a variety of items that appeal to you ie. protein in one, carb in another, fruit or veggies, crackers or cheese,etc, the possibilities are endless, but variety keeps it interesting, I am a big fan of bento lunches and if you search the net under bento lunches or go on pinterest there are loads of ideas, lots for kids and also for adults to. Another company called www.laptoplunch:yawn: have whole systems for taking your lunch to work or school and they post tons of ideas on their site, their systems are pricey, but i think definitely worth the cost in the long run, ! Bon Appetit!

Today I had houmous with carrot sticks and baby sweetcorn as a snack - lunch was salad with tzatziki and lamb - delicious!

Other tasty lunches have been 3 bean salad (kidney beans, borlotti beans and cannelini beans) with a drizzle of oil, fresh mint and lemon juice. Dressed lentils with feta (green speckled/puy lentils - great for protein), chickpea salad with smoked mackerel... the list is endless! Ooo, nice one I had the other day, mustardy puy lentils with beef. Om nom nom. Puy lentils are great - they cook in about 15 minutes, not like those lentils that take forever..

Sophie, can I pay you to come and make my lunches please...?? :laugh:

I take a lunch most days. I build freezable meals, and vegetable pre-packs every few weeks.
