Answer 4

Usually the lunch should be light meal so that your body can digest the food easily. If some food which digest fast is not good because you feel hungry after some time. The food should not take too much time to digest because the more the body takes to digest, the more you feel sleepy. I guess, you do not want to be caught by your boss when you sleep on your table.

So being an Indian, I prefer rice rich in vegetable. Wheat products like tortilla, chappathi-Indian flat bread, or wraps should be good. Some talks about sandwich, I guess that is also fine.

I prefer rice with vegetable- normally two courses of veg dish, because I feel the food I eat will be easy to digest (not so quickly) and I normally do not feel hungry for another 2-3 hrs.

Some of the veg dishes we make are:

spinach with lentil, vegetable like winter melon or cucumber or pineapple or plantain in yogurt. Some vegetables with lentil and fresh coconut cream, kidney beans in tomato-onion puree, stir fried vegetables (like french beans, asparagus, long beans, cabbage, broccoli in just one spoon oil, cook with lid covered). You may add fresh coconut once the vegetables were cooked). The beauty is if you change the lentil and use another vegetable you get different taste. In any way, your food will be rich in protein and minerals as lentils and yogurt are good source for them. And another tip. Always warm the food -not heat, if the food is old (cooked on the previous night), especially if you use micro wave oven. If the food contains oil, microwaving the food will decompose the oil creating free radicals in food which is not good for the body.

Answer 5

Try grilled cheese sandwich,

Cheese and tomato sandwich,

Cheese and onion pastry,

Peanut butter and jelly sandwich and chocolate bread.

Answer 6

Salad

Answer 7

Some veggies to dip, with a bagel and some spread such as cream cheese. I know this sounds weird but maybe some cereal with some chopped banana and some soy milk (or regular milk if you arent vegan) A grilled cheese. Maybe a tofu hot dog on a bun with some cheese, sort of like a cheese dog but vegetrian.

Answer 8

tuna wrap

Answer 9

This is what I have almost every day - healthy and keeps me going until tea time :)

Lentil/mixed vegetable soup with bread, ryvita, handful of mixed nuts and an apple.

Or pasta with a few stir-fried veges and chopped tomatoes from a can.

Or some quorn/soya bacon and quorn/soya sausages in a sandwich (when I don't feel like being healthy!)

Answer 10

I like to eat either tortillas or pitas for lunch with tons of veggies. If you lightly brush olive oil on top and toast them, they can be good even by themselves, but if you also fry up some veggies and roll them up in the tortilla/stick them into the pita they're delicious. And hummus is also great with them too.

Answer 11

PB&J - salad - steamed veggies - miso soup - tofu stix dipped in soya sauce, grilled cheez ( if you do dairy), a smoothie - bananas, juice, other fruits & nuts to taste, yogurt w/ fruit stix to dip.  come over will have lunch together - i'm hungry now!  hahaha

Answer 12

PB&J and some fresh fruit salad.

Answer 13

Have you tried quinoa?  It is a magical grain that looks a little like couscous.  it is a complete protein, so very healthy for veg diet and filling.  

If you make a big pot on Sunday you can bring it for lunch w/ fresh, steamed, or roasted veggies to make something different every day.  This week I added cucumber, black beans, lime zest, tomatoes, and corn, and salt & pepper.
