Packed lunches

[ghoti_mhic_uait]

Do you take lunch into work? What do you take? I'm finding my lunches rather under-satisfying. Yesterday, I had a (co-op bought, because I forgot to ensure that we had bread) ham sandwich, a yoghurt and an apple, and this was clearly not enough. Today I had a cupasoup (of the thicker variety), a steak slice and a 250g fruit salad, and this was still not very satisfying.

Clearly, I need more carbohydrate, but I also want things slightly more interesting than sandwiches every day. I had been thinking of scrambled eggs and bread and butter tomorrow...

We have a hot water machine (no, not quite a kettle), a toaster, a toasted sandwich maker, a microwave, a fridge and a freezer.

I take three slices of bread made into sandwitches, with a very generous amount of mushroom pate. It's nice, but gets very samey. But I'm basically messed up by not liking cold food, and not having the time or effort to cook at lunch. Maybe I should bring a saucepan into work and do soup? Soup is nice.

Premade soup, ither at home or in tins, probably works too, and is less time-consuming (I only get half an hour, I don't know about you)

I used to bring tins of soup into work as we had a microwave, also baked potatoes are also another good thing if you have a micro, you can probably also half cook them at home so they don't take as long.
