Can any one give me any ideas for packed lunches to take to work (apart from salads). I love salads of all kinds but some times want a change.:hungry:

If there is a microwave can you bring leftovers from your main meal?
 
Soups? I have fritatta sometimes. You can also make crustless quiche.
 
Is frittata not potato based?

Frittata can have potato if you want it to
Dish
  • Frittata is an egg-based Italian dish similar to an omelette or crustless quiche, enriched with additional ingredients such as meats, cheeses, vegetables or pasta. The word frittata is derived from Italian and roughly translates to "egg-cake". Wikipedia
Frittata is similar to the Middle Eastern dishes Kuku.[7][9] By comparison with frittata, kuku (or kookoo) recipes use a smaller proportion of eggs to bind larger amounts of other ingredients, have spices instead of cheese and are typically baked in the oven for 45–50 minutes without being turned over.[10][11]

I'm doing an aubergine curry at the mo with cauliflower and runner beans.... and it rocks as I've slowly increased the chilli... make enough for three lunches.
Otherwise: smoked fish, cheese, pate, salami....
 
my lunch almost every day: chicken sandwich (in bergen), raw carrots, lettuce, raspberries, blueberries, nuts, a couple squares of chocolate, apple (sometimes dates, figs, apricot,...). Plenty of different flavours
 
If got a fridge in work.. Sweet pointy peppers loaded with philadelphia cheese!
