    Morning,

    Happy Hump Day :)

    SF chicken strips and some veg rice for lunch today, plus snacky bits.

    Toast this morning for breakfast courtesy of the company.

    It's payday too but I resisted the cafe over the road.

    Have a great day today x

    I had chicken salad made whilst WFH yesterday and did a box for today's lunch.   Yoghurt, plum and nectarine taken too.

    I've soup in the fridge for tomorrow and there's an extra portion which I'll freeze - banked for next week so to speak

    Always good to be prepared for next week peb :)

    Leftover Chicken and Chorizo pasta for lunch.

    I did give in and buy a sausage bap from the cafe this morning, I'm WFH tomorrow so I won't get my Friday treat.

    Have a great day everyone x

    Well.  It's still July.  I'm accidentally WFH as I overslept so soup from the freezer, carrot and tomato and maybe cheese and toast

    Hello everyone, 

    I know it's August now, so I'm very late to the party but I thought this might be helpful to share for this coming month... 

    On a Sunday, I batch make my lunch for the coming week - whether I'm in the office or working from home. I typically make homemade soup when the whether is colder or various salads - all based on the veg/salad I have in at the time. And I buy a loaf of bread that I slice up each day to have with it. 

    By the end of the week I can definitely get a bit fed-up of having the same meal though, so it's great seeing all of your menu suggestions - please keep the ideas coming :)

    I'm starting too. I'm currently paying out for a high calorie tasteless wrap at work so I can make my own for £1
