Ok so I need some lunch ideas for myself...

I need something pretty filling. Right now I am so busy with LO I just quick make a PB&J sandwich, but I am hungry an hour later. I need some ideas ladies.

Maybe something I can make ahead of time and heat up as leftovers a few days. I am tired of soup and sandwiches. I can't have dairy either.

What do you busy moms eat for lunch?
 
I live on cups of tea till dinnertime. I'm not the best advert for tips to fill yourself up :blush:
 
Why not something like a pasta tuna salad? And for pud a soya yoghurt and banana?
 
Whilst LO is eating her tea in the high chair i prepare our dinner for that evening and my lunch for the next day. I usually make something like rolls, tuna salad or bean salad.

Quite handy to boil a pack of eggs once a week too. For easy sandwiches or for salads:thumbup:
 
I make turkey avocado rolls or a quick panini. We have a george Forman grill so it's easy to whip up a chicken quesadilla with a salad on the side or panini even some fish. I try to eat as healthy as possible. With the grill it takes 7 to 10 min and I'm full and eating well. Also crock pot so I have food for a few days ahead.
 
I usually have toast and coffee cos I've missed breakfast :blush:
 
I always make enough tea for 3 and put the extra portion in the fridge and grab it when I can for dinner the next day!
 
Toast. I eat a LOT of toast.

Toast. Tiger bread ham and cumcumber sandwishes... oh and soup.

I need healthier ideas too xx
 
I often make a huge pasta bake or cous cous salad on a Sunday and it usually lasts until wed/thurs (probably shouldn't but its either slightly sorry looking pasta or nothing!). On friday morning we usually go swimming and tesco is round the corner so afterwards I feed lo in tesco & 'treat' myself to a fresh sandwich & a coffee!

:flower:
 
Every day for the past two weeks I have made myself a houmous, avocado, pepper, spinach and tomato wrap...takes 5 minutes!
