    I took to work tuna mixed with a small can of sweetcorn, 1 tbsp. low fat mayo and a few pickled beetroots. Plus a cuppa soup. It was surprisingly filling and I enjoyed it :)

    I had HM hummus on HM bread with Aldi butter/oil spread and a cuppa tea.

    Simple and lovely and very cheap!

  • I had a bowlful of lettuce, sweetcorn, grilled peppers (from the fridge) and LO salmon, with mayo, crispy onions, chilli flakes and fresh coriander. No pic as I was hungry :o

    This is exactly my kind of lunch! It's filling because it's high in protein ( tuna) and fat (mayo, full-fat is fine) but low in starch (pasta/rice/ bread etc). Two portions of veg there too ;).

    I've had a bowl of homemade curried butternut soup with a slice of homemade bread toasted and topped with the last tbsp of tuna mayo. Why can't they squeeze that last bit of tuna mayo in their sandwich? I'll never know

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I am sick of eating sandwiches day after day! I really need to come up with alternatives which are light, yet easy/quick to prepare. I make soup every now and again when my veg draw is looking a little sad

    I don't mind cooking something which could be divided to eat over a number of days.

    There is dh, ds2 and myself home for lunch everyday and as a general rule we will eat ham or cheese sandwiches, sometimes a wrap (same filling!)
