[quote=“Daddie,post:20,topic:28267"”] Or you could be cool like me : 1. open web browser 2. type in [www.seamlessweb.com](http://www.seamlessweb.com) 3. select food establishment 4. order whatever I want 5. click next 6. click next 7. wait for food to be delivered. 8. feast. [/quote] 🤣 ---

Cereal and buy some of those milks that don’t need refrigeration? Meal Replacement bars? Soup in a thermos? ---

Between not wanting to use the microwave, no refrigeration, healthy, and filling you got me stumped. My lunches: Various sandwiches (ham, turkey, chicken salad): all need fridge. Occasional lean pocket: fridge and microwave Leftovers from dinner: fridge, sometimes microwave Soup in a thermos was all I could think of that meets all your requirements, but that was already mentioned. Maybe stop by the army surplus store and get some MRE’s. ---

You could always have some cack for lunch. Low in calories High in protein No need to refrigerate No need to microwave Depending on method, you could even get some exercise while eating And even if you can’t find some at work, I’m sure there are guys on here willing to deliver. :lol: I kid… I kid. :lol: ---

As already stated but I’ll throw in some stuff I take to work with me: –Fruit –Yogurt –Non salted nuts (cashews and peanuts) –Salad –Wraps –Occasional turkey ham chicken salad or tuna fish sandwich –Cans of tuna –Small bottle of hotsauce (tuna + hot sauce = yum) –Brown rice w/ cooked veggies –Other veggies ie) celery, carrots, etc. –Grilled up chicken –Occasional grilled fish Those are just a few of the things I’ll bring with me. All of it will fit nicely into tupperware or sandwich baggies. Most doesn’t require heating either, I have full access to microwaves but in your case I’d probably go against rice/veggies as they tend to be better when warm 🙂 Hope this helps. ---
