Otherwise, sandwiches are versatile. Have lots of different sandwiches - chicken salad, cheese and pickle etc. If you get bored of bread then make a salad - either a pasta based one or a lettuce based one.
We have a toaster at work so I quite often have crumpets or a couple of slices of toast or similar.
Or sometimes I cheat and get an oh so yummy ( :yeees: ) school dinner
fruit salad
regular salad
soup
pasta salad
potato salad
and then make him a sandwich and crisps/carrot sticks. You probably wont need as much but he works up to 14hours sometimes so i made sure he had enough.
Pasta or rice
Yoghurt
Rice Cakes
2 pieces of fruit (normally apple & banana)
I dunno I reckon that can be classed as healthy! Especially if you have wholemeal pitta and low fat hummous and some nice salad with it. Chickpeas are good for you too.
Packed with added goodness
I do, I hate white bread.
I shall pretend its healthy and feel better for being healthy. And although its so fatty, at least its good fat.
Hmmm but it's like avocado which has a lot of fat but it's really good for you!
I know alot of people who take salads, pasta, pitta bread with ham/cheese in, rice cakes with philidelphia (sp) on them. I always used to take cup a soup in at winter!
Def vary sandwich fillings - I'm liking cheese and celery atm!
