Hmm can you heat things up there?

Bring out a big raw steak and start eating it with a knife and fork in the middle of the tea room


Or some things that are nice:
Beef and veggie stirfry?
Egg salad?
Eggs wrapped in bacon with mayo, side of lettuce.

If you can heat things up then you could take anything really (e.g. leftovers). Quiches are great hot or cold.

Hi Kat, I usually spend time on the weekend cooking chicken drummies with various flavourings, and/or making the spinach and ricotta pies that I recently posted. I also often take a small can of tuna or salmon to have with a salad. Hard boiled eggs are also good. Any leftovers, quiche, or savory mince are also good.
I find that the ALDI mixed salad leaves that are prewashed have a pretty good shelf (or fridge) life. Sounds silly, but I am not a morning person so any time that is saved washing lettuce leaves is fine with me.
I also always have a container of almonds at my desk to cope with the 3pm munchies.
Good luck with the new job

Hi,

How about some homos with vegie sticks; sardines on wholemeal toast; small tin of tuna with salad; a piece of cheese with pear quarters; handful of nuts and an apple; plain yoghurt with ground linseeds; tinned mixed bean salad with spring onion, tomato, parsley, garlic, lemon and olive oil; ...

If I was taking my lunch normally was salad with some kind of cold meat or a tin of flavoured tuna. I had small slices of quiche, cheese cubes, salami or nuts for my snacks.

I was lucky at one workplace, there was a fantastic burger joint and they had no problem making me a burger with the lot in a box no bun. They also were happy to cook me bacon, eggs and mushrooms for breakfast. If I was feeling like a bit more, they had a wicked chicken satay skewer. So I would suggest having a look around some of the food places near work just as a backup or a bit of a change during the week, you might find one that is very accomodating.

I find the little tins of flavoured tuna and salmon a godsend, I usually have them with salad.
I always try to have them in the cupboard.

HI Hen, where abouts did you post the spinach and ricotta pies?
How are you doing?
I wish you and everyone a great week,
Thank you.
Hugs Suzie and the Girls.

Artemisia,
Hmmm that website didnt work for me, never mind.
Cheers and take care,
Suzie and the Girls.

Hi Suzie, I'm doing fine thanks, looking forward to a nice short working week as I've still got one day on my sick certificate to go. Feel like a bit of a fraud actually but hey, I've also turned up at work sick as a dog before and got no thanks for it.
Have a look at Mini ricotta, spinach and prosciutto pies in the recipe section. It is pretty recent and still on the main list.
Hope you enjoy them. They are my favourites.

You can also get foil pouches with salmon and flavourings (Mediterranean style, lemon and dill, etc.). These are great for work or camping as they don't need to be refrigerated. You can put it on a salad, but I just eat it out of the pouch with a fork.
