Ideas for Brown Bag Lunch?

So I have to come up with some new ideas for DH's work lunch....he's getting tired of cold cut sandwiches and PB&J. Please share your lunch ideas!!! TIA!!

Re: Ideas for Brown Bag Lunch?

Aside from cold cut sandwiches here's what else I bring:

tuna & chicken salads
grilled chicken over baby spinach salad
soups
Tony's personal size pizzas

I put leftovers in a microwave container from night before and have it the next day,salads, soup, wraps, etc. HTH

Does he like hummus? I sometimes make a hummus sandwich with sliced turkey, that was good (the hummus acts as the condiment here).

Also egg salad, tuna salad, chicken salad, etc.

What about a PP's suggestion of using wraps instead of bread?

Go to any deli and pick up a menu - they usually have all sorts of wraps - maybe you can get some ideas from there?

Re: Ideas for Brown Bag Lunch?

I always make DH sandwiches and have been sprucing it up with 1/2 avocado, tomatoes, alpha sprouts and cucumbers. You can spruce it up with roased peppers and diffrent types of cheeses. You can also make salads and wraps.

pasta salad

wraps - when I get tired of salads, I sometimes put all the salad ingredients (minus the dressing) inside a low carb wrap.

I have been grilling up a bunch of chicken breasts and then flavoring them different ways - with balsamic vinegar, then put some petso on the bread and some roasted red peppers.

Or with honey mustard, baby spinach in a wrap.

Also with BBQ sauce and romain on a roll.

YUMMM.

I also try sometimes to make a side salad: potato, veggie (beans, peppers, onions, celery, carrot, whatever else I have with a lemon vinaigrette or Italian dressing.
