What do you have for lunch when you're at work?

Either bring in stuff from home - leftovers from last night or cheese n' pickle sandwiches.

If I don't do that, I usually get a baguette from the café next door. Coronation chicken and salad: £2.70.
 
I always bring mine in at the begining of the week,I work 2 and a half days and on Monday I take in a carton of baby tomatoes a tub of goats cheese,and some leaderdammer, a bag of watercress spinich and rocket,2 avocardos,celery mayo and either some tuna, egg mayo, or chicken. This always lasts me.
 
Usually go to the gym or for a run at lunchtimes unless it I have been out the night beofre which is usually a Thursday night...... then grab a bagette
brown with chicken & Coleslow or thia chicken or something and a packette
of crisps, may also have an apple.
Then usually sit at my desk eating my lunch whilst surfing the internet .....
 
I buy from the sandwich lady everyday , which I really need to stop cause it costs about £2.50 a day.
 
i've been trying to bring my own lunch to stop me spending too much. it's a bloody pain in the arse most mornings but today i was up early so made a feta and olive salad. and it's delish! :)
 
i try to plan dinner to ensure leftovers.
work issue us pretty good coolboxes and freeze blocks.
if there's no leftovers i try to get half a supermarket quiche (effective cost about a quid) and a homemade sandwich.
often pick up a 500ml bottle of fizzy drink too - 85p at a supermarket or about 8 quid from motorway services.
 
usually i bring sth in for brekkie like a wholemeal sandwich. and then i go to the canteen for lunch and eat what i fancy. prizes vary from £140/to £250


if i am on a long day i eat twice in the canteen. so basically with buying a take away cofee and sometimes a croissant every time i work i spend quite a lot on food and drink whilst at work. but i like it there is always enough money for food on my budget :)

A day?! What do you eat? A whole cow?!

What?

but yes i am hungry a lot, also because i am running around at my job a lot
Surely not two hundred and fifty pounds a day hungry! Or does your work bring Gordon Ramsay in to cater? :p
 
The same almost every day for me! I take a lunchbox to work as I'm on the road and never know where I'll end up at dinnertime.

Egg mayo sarnie, yoghurt, apple, banana and a packet of Seabrooks crisps. (got to be Seabrooks). Occassionaly I change the sarnie filling to tuna mayo if I'm out of eggs or even less often, if I've not been to the shop for ages, I use my emergency tin of corned beef. I also take a flask of tea. A cracking flask btw. I make the flask up at 7am and th tea's still warm at 4pm if there's any left!

I can't understand people who say they can't be arsed in the morning?:confused: Just put it into your routine!
