  • Boring question alert:
    I work in an office, for lunch I normally get a sandwich, Pret, Eat, etc. However it always kills my energy for the next hour. I think it's the carbs. Does anyone know what kind of lunchy food I could make/buy that fills you up but won't make me fall asleep?

  • Make salad, two days worth in one go:

    Tin of butter beans
    Tin of sweetcorn
    Cherry tomatoes
    Cucumber
    Mushrooms
    Spring onion
    Cheese
    Nuts
    Seeds
    Dressing

    Low cost, healthy, with practice it can be made drunk or hungover in <10 mins.

  • Make salad

    I approve.

  • I've been making lunches in a similar way. pre-cooked beluga lentils and freekeh mixed, then chopped cherry tomatos and salad onions with diced cucumber and peppers dressed with olive oil and a bit of red wine vinegar, roasted brocolli and courgette, sliced cooked chicken. A lot of it is pre-cooked (I do the broccoli and courgette) so it's not as cheap as it could be - looking at an Ocado order it's £20 for 6 meals, but I feel good after, eat less in the evening and I have one less decision to make in the day. I'm planning to switch in some smoked tofu and the like to make it vegan.
