Lunch box meals - suggestions?

Thanks a lot, Robin! :yum:

I like the Millet, Lentil, and Pomegranate Salad, the Thai salad and the 2 noodles salad.
Will forward this link to hubby too.

Glad to help :smile:

Ah…the ambition of packing a lunch every morning! I once had those aspirations too. Should I assume you are using a microwave-able box, and not being the extra dutiful spouse who wakes up early to make lunch fresh each morning?

I find pasta to heat up relatively well - so usually a light mix of pasta with veggies and sausage/protein. I’m prefer no sauce if only because the tomato based sauces often stain the containers, and cream sauces get clumpy. I have figured out how to microwave rice and have it fairly palatable, but it may vary depending on the container you have, so I’ve brought rice and leftover stir fries that heated up well.

I like to make Japanese style hamburg steaks and I find this works quite well in a microwave too. The sauce keeps it moist (I also use a patty that combines tofu, keeping it very moist). I pair that with rice or a side salad if you prefer.
