lunch

Do you make your DH lunch or does he go out to eat?

If you make him lunch-what are some things that you make?

Thanks.

Re: lunch

I make him lunch because as he puts it, it's too expensive to eat out every day and it's crap food.

Lunch is a variety of things.
Might be a sandwich with a side of raw veggies.
Leftover dinner.
I cook extra chicken during the week, it becomes part of a sandwich or a plate.

I always include some kind of veggie (raw or cooked) and fruits, snack items like pretzels or crackers.

My lunch is pretty much the same.

Re: lunch

DH takes leftovers from dinner to work for lunch. He will usually take one day per week to go out and buy his own lunch. So basically, whatever is on the menu for dinner this week, is also his lunches.

Re: lunch

We both make our own lunch everyday. It's either sandwiches, leftovers or Lean Cuisine (for me). Then we usually add granola bars, fresh fruit, yogurt, mixed nuts, etc. Snacks with lunch or in between.

Re: lunch

he usually goes and buys it
He's a contractor so making a bagged lunch and leaving it in his truck isn't the best idea.
Sometimes he'd rather leave the job and grab a bite at a fast food place or diner. He works with his father so they go together. Sometimes his father buys.

Re: lunch

I usually make his lunch. most of the time it's leftovers from dinner the night before. sometimes it's a sandwich.

he usually has a yogurt with whatever it is, and I think sometimes dessert. his coworkers always have something to say about his three course meals.

I also get his breakfast ready in the morning. usually a croissant or raisin bread with nutella if it's to go.

it saves mucho dinero.

Re: lunch

Every night I prep his lunch they are most likey left overs other wise, PB&J, egg salad, tuna salad, cold cut sandwiches (turkey or ham) along with that:
-bottled water
-granola bar
-banana
-rice cakes

He is a healt eater unlike me

Re: lunch

He usually buys. When I do make him lunch I'll make a sandwich: ham and cheese or roastbeef. I'll usually pack some chips adn a granola bar or two.

Re: lunch

i make him lunch 4-5 days out of the week. i usually make him a sandwich, with some fruit and pretzels... or leftovers from the night before. i also make him breakfast to take to work too... a bagel, eggs, or a croissant.

Re: lunch

dh works from home and then goes outside the home late afternoon for work. I leave him leftovers. He often stops by his moms and has lunch with his parents. I try so hard to encourage healthy lunch on him, but they often get take out.

Re: lunch

I let him make his own! I think he buys about once a week. He usually has ham and cheese in a wrap or on flatbread. He also does a lot of yogurt, granola bars, and usually almonds or cashews. Sometimes he brings a can of soup or hot pocket.

Re: lunch

FH makes his own lunch, either a turkey sandwich or left overs from dinner.
