Guest guest Posted July 21, 2003 Report Share Posted July 21, 2003 Hello, I was wondering if you could help me find new ideas for my lunchbox..... I work at University and the only vegetarian option in their cafeteria is high-fat and their salad bar is too expensive. I take packed lunches to Uni every day but I am slowly getting sick of sandwiches. I have access to a fridge (I work as a tutor and get to use the staff fridge!) but no device to heat food so it has to be cold. Any ideas???

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2003 Report Share Posted July 21, 2003 Hello again Nadine, What are you putting in your sandwiches? i'm a vegan so my lunches may be slightly different but here's the kind of thing that i have: Sandwiches: fake mozarella and cherry tomatoes marmite fake cream cheese and cucumber roasted vegetables (i roast up a load of veg on sunday night - carrots, potatoes, cherry tomatoes, sweet potato, parsnip, courgette, mushroom, peppers etc - just make sure its not too many starchy veg!) Pitta bread filles with salad and olives and fake cream cheese Tortilla wrap filled with salad and salsa and chunks of tofu Block of marinated tofu Cold cooked veggie burger/fake chicken etc. Salads: Pesto Pasta (using veggie pesto obviously) with sweetcorn, cherry tomatoes and salad stirred in Rice with various veg (sweetcorn, peas, broccoli, peppers, even sultanas!) and cumin and turmeric Pasta with fake cream cheese stirred in with broccoli and sweetcorn and mushrooms Couscous flavoured with fresh herbs (basil and oregano) or spices (cumin, turmeric etc) and served with mushrooms, peppers, courgette etc Can add tofu to any of these, or fake chicken, cold vegan sausages etc. Crusty bread with soup (type you add hot water to) Hope this helps. Also if you look in our files i'm sure Sherri posted some lunch ideas. Have a browse and let me know if you have any difficulty finding them or need more ideas! take care, ~*Laura*~nadhimmighofen <NadHimmighofen wrote: Hello,I was wondering if you could help me find new ideas for my lunchbox.....
