Any lunch ideas?
My husband takes his lunch to work, but he is tired of lunch meat sandwichs. His lunch has to be kept and served cold, because he works in the fields. Does anybody have any suggestions?

slices of ham and cheese rolled up and secured with a toothpick, grapes and a carton of yogurt
tortilla wraps are a nice change!!! you can fill them with grilled chicken and veggies....anything really, you can get super creative.
because the food has to be served cold you are limited. I made a good one yesterday with spinach, cucumber,tomato, grilled salmon, and a dill vinegarette. It was delicious and great cold.
another one i have done is mixed greens,shredded cheese,chicken tenders, tomato, bacon bits and ranch dressing.
good luck!
Veggie pizza, cold fried chicken, chicken, tuna or egg salad in a pita (if you can keep it cold) antipasta, macaroni salad with tuna or chicken.One thing my mom used to do for me is to put hot things in a thermos and they would stay warm. Hotdogs are great like that! They have those campbell's soup thermos things now that you can put hot food other than soup in and it keeps it warm. Then you can use any leftovers.
Get some pita breads and fill them with chicken, cheese, corn, etc.
My kids love the frozen White Castle cheeseburgers heated in the morning and wrapped in aluminum foil then in paper towels and in a plastic baggie. By lunch they were still very warm. You can do the same with corn dogs or any other frozen entree like burritoes, etc.
rolled sandwiches work well especially with peppers and different kinds of spreads. Pack him a picnic! Cold roasted chicken with fruit and fruit juices and salad. make a grown-up version of the lunchables. nacho cheese and chips with salsa is good, meatball sandwiches works as well. They can be eaten cold and make for a nice change.
Salads are good. Can be with lettuce or pasta. Since it needs to be filling for a man - be sure to include some type of meat, cheese or eggs (protein).
yeah i make this salad all the time
