How about making quiche?? or HM soup??

How about Marmite sarnies, a yohurt and a piece of fruit. Or get yourself a flask and make a vegetable soup with lentils and take a roll with you to dip in, very filling, cheap and healthy too!

Please list a list of carb things that you cannot eat: doesn't have to be a full list, just half a dozen or so of the typical non-complex carbs that you cannot eat.

Can you eat rice?

I want a bowl of mrsbojangles veg with lentil soup, and a nice warm crusty cob to dip in it(with lots of butter on, melting into the soup)......mmmmmmmmm

Spanish tortilla. Like a massive omlette but with potatoes, onions, peppers, anything you like really, thrown in.

Cut it into wedges and bob's your uncle - should do nearly a weeks worth of lunches, and I assume you could freeze it once cooked and cooled, but would somebody clever please confirm before I poison the poor OP.

Link to Delia's recipe here.

I ususally take some lovely HM veg soup (made in the slow cooker). I make a huge batch so it is cheap, quick and easy. I then take bread or crackerbreads to dunk - mmm! You could try adding chucks of potato to bulk it out and fill you up.

Cooked rice + some of the following; peppers,raisins,cheese,cooked beans, lentils,hardboiled eggs,onions,chopped fruit,cucumber,grated carrot,sweetcorn,sunflower seeds,nuts etc

Cooked barley instead of rice?

Rice noodles+ salad

Hm hummus + veg sticks and oatcakes

Bean or lentil soup in a thermos
