I have hit a rut in my lunch ideas, prep, etc. and am hoping to get some ideas from others to reset a bit. What are you eating for lunch these days? Do you typically prep for the entire week at once or day by day? Do you have any high level macro analysis of what you are eating? Thank y'all!

Most of the time, we just make leftovers from the night before's dinner. If we don't have leftovers, I'll just make a turkey sandwich.

This. I bring leftovers for lunch almost exclusively, and I plan our dinners based on this.

Lunchmeat and cheese roll ups, nuts (almonds or pistachios), and a banana. Pretty exciting stuff.

Try to prep for the week. Proteins and produce.

Today's lunch is pork roast, asparagus, and avocado. Unsalted almonds for snack.

I am a professional crock potter on the weekends.

Had gyro meat with romaine, onion, tomato, feta, taziki, and olives. So good.

Creamy chicken chili in the instant pot tonight.
Life's an endless party, not a pushcart.

I will typically prep for just a couple days. I like using mashed avocado in chicken salad or tuna salad in place of mayo. I also do mashed sweet potatoes with meat and veggies.

Today's lunch was an avocado enchilada, rice, and papas from Abuelos. No regrets.

Bring in a loaf of good bread at the start of the week (I like Dave's Killer, but whatever). Make PB&J for breakfast and/or grilled cheese for lunch. Snack on fresh fruit and nuts.

Yep, that is the exact place I am in and the reason that I asked the original question. I'm happy I asked, though, because I have gotten a couple of good ideas out of it. I had no idea that Dave's Killer Bread existed prior to this, but it is now on the grocery list for this weekend.

I didn't know about Dave's Killer Bread either. We buy Ezekial bread, but that looks like a good alternative!
