i really must try Heinz soups again, but always found them too salty
Getting bored of Cup-a-soups
Some of them aren’t up to much really! I only have the tomato, lentil or mulligatawny 💕 I love the chicken noodle cup a soups with the little circle noodles! I put loads of pepper in it 🤣💙

I haven’t made anything for tomorrow and I’ve had a couple of wines so think I’ll treat myself to something from the canteen (nhs). No idea what they’ve got on offer yet but I’m hoping for meatballs (surprisingly good) or bbq chicken 🍗 and chips of course :)

I usually cook a huge batch of wholewheat pasta with lots of veggies at the start of the week and portion it out for four days then treat myself one day (usually Monday of Friday) xx

Was about to post a new thread and found the old one instead. Today I had leftover soup but I need some new ideas for future work lunches. I've been in a salad/sandwich/veggie stew rut for the past few years apart from the odd takeaway.
Veggie fajita wrap. Pasta bake etc

I am back in Jan and I'm slowly stick piling home cooked meals and soups in the freezer. I will take one of those with fruit and yogurt.

Today I will be on customer site, so I think I will make myself a chicken & pesto rocket sarnie (never had it before but bored of the usual BLTs and hams etc)

Today I had a picky lunch of ham, marmite cheese minis x2, hoummus, carrots, tomatoes, lettuce. Then a bag of quavers and a Kit Kat.

Tomorrow I’ve got leftover shakshuka with loads of parsley and coriander and some buttered granary bread.Think the eggs will go weird if I heat them up in the microwave though so I guess I’m eating it cold! (Didn’t think of that!!)

Currently obsessed with the fresh soups from M&S with a bread roll. They are quite low calorie too so you get a nice hearty lunch that keeps you warm without it being super naughty!

I normally take in soup, jacket potato with beans, ham salad sandwich or leftovers. I have leftovers today (bolognese bake). Def good to get some more ideas on here as gets boring having the same things! 😄

I take the usual sandwiches/buns.

Sometimes I take a pasta salad, maybe tuna or chicken. Maybe homemade soup. Some days it might just be left overs from the previous night (e.g. pasta bake, Bolognese).

I'm making a frittata to take next week with salad. I try to batch make on a Sunday and just portion up each day, but I'm not always that prepared. Sometimes the husband will take a portion too (he's already bagsied a frittata portion next week!)

Obviously some of these depend on you having a microwave at work.. One of my favourites is jacket potato with tuna, so filling and quick and easy. I also like white rice with sweet and sour sauce poured over. Not keen on sandwiches so tend to have crackers sometimes. Another favourite is a tin of chunky vegetable soup with a buttered roll. Leftover spaghetti bolognaise.

Cheese sandwiches, tuna mayo sandwiches, cold meat sandwiches..

Salads with lettuce, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, sweetcorn and radishes with some nuts on top

Leftovers from dinner

Pesto sweetcorn pasta. Boil pasta, add sweetcorn from can and pesto from jar with some seasoning and delicious!
