How often does lunch time become boring that same old sandwich time after time. Here are some nutritious and easy lunch suggestions to put the pizazz back in your lunch!
- Pasta, vegetables and smoked salmon – simply boil pasta till, al dente with some mixed frozen veggies, mix in mayonnaise and some smoked salmon!

- Baba Ganoush and Pita bread - baba ganoush is actually very easy to make simply roast eggplant in the oven then blend with tahini, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, parsley, cumin and salt. Its a wonderful Middle Eastern dip.
- A Ham Pesto and cheese panini
- Cous Cous – this wonderful North African pasta literally takes minutes to cook and can be eaten hot and cold.
- Artisan crackers, with Brie and fresh fruit
- Beans on Toast – this is a staple snack meal in the UK, you can even find British Heinz baked beans in many American Grocery stores, high in protein and satisfying.
- Ham, Cheese and Spinach Crepes or Galette a crepe made with buckwheat flour from Brittany in France

I like the suggestions. Variety is truly the spice of life. My son is into curry at the moment in his flask.
