I like to bring my own because it's cheaper, healthier, and tastier!
My ideas:
- potato salad
- pasta/antipasto salad
- avocado
- bagels w/ cream cheese or bagel sandwiches (w/ lettuce, tomato, etc.)
- hot dogs
- pita sandwiches / hummus
- oatmeal (boring backup)
- burrito - beans, whatever else
- sandwich (any combo of cheese, veggies, mayo...)
Do any of you have cool lunch ideas? Something quick, on the cheap side, healthy, filling... Nut/trail mixes are cool too. |

| I bring my lunch a good chunk of the time, they're usually a premade salad or a microwaved thing :( |

Oh yeah, salads are good. I can buy a box a salad and a bottle of dressing and just stick it in the fridge at work... |

I always bring my own lunch.
- turkey lettuce wraps (turkey breast and a couple slices of cheese + a bit of mayo wrapped in a lettuce leaf)
- grilled salmon
- steamed broccoli, green beans, or asparagus
- baked/garlic mashed sweet potatoes (my god do I love sweet potatoes)
- grilled chicken
- cottage cheese
- protein shakes
- almonds
And today I made a tomato stuffed with tuna + dill + diced celery + a bit of mayo.
Oh and lots of fresh salads. |

| I'm a bring my own lunch type of person unless I was just too lazy. One of our kitchen at work has an oven so i'm able to actually cook lunch which is awesomely fresh. I'm a huge fan of wraps and grilled veggies. |

Iv just started uni and quickly realising how much money you waist if you don't just bring your own lunch (that is unless you find somewhere cheap and are willing to eat the same thing all the time).
Pretty much everything is based on leftovers.
-Pasta Salad from left over pasta + chicken/tuna and salad stuff (works best if you put some pasta aside without any sauce mixed in, just some oil so the pasta doesn't clump)
-Schnitzel rolls/sandwiches
-Tuna in a tin (not an appealing smell though)
Thats just what I had this week.
I gotta get a list of ideas and make some kind of el-cheapo cook book for lunches.
I am officially a uni bum :( |

| Yes because most places use unnecessary ingredients. It's impossible at some places not to find some sort of ****ish dressing, mayo or something on a sandwich. There is one exception which is a local bakery who send rolls out to shops freshly done & they're delicious. |

my lunch is basically fruit, museli bars and a tin of tuna :) |
