I am so sick of making and eating sandwiches everyday for school?!
I'm thinking I could start making wraps or something.
Thanks.
Answers: Can you suggest other things that don't require microwaving & are easy to make and bring...?

wraps are a great idea. Veggie wraps are awesome too
They make whole wheat tortillas now! Turn your lunch into a burrito! (it makes it fun to eat). Also add some garlic and herb spread to your turkey sandwich instead of mayo and it will make it POP!
Also if you have a salami sandwich put on a great olive spread take that and some canned peperocini's and a bit of munster cheese and it's a sandwich (or wrap) to die for.
Also mix it up with some salads.
Use spinach or romaine instead of ice burg lettuce to get more nutrition (makes the period at the end of the month less brutal) and add kidney beans, cooked chicken, feta cheese, olives, or anything else you like and toss it all in a plastic container. Put your salad dressing in a separate one or it will get soggy
I was going to say wraps as they are so versatile, also you could make salads, like pasta salad or rice salad or potato salad.
Cheese & Crackers are filling and good. How about a thermos with soup. Fruit Salad with banana bread. Maybe try cold pizza.
Salads? Either fruit salad or a ceasar salad or something like that or like you said wraps are a good idea too. Try google like quick lunch recipies or something like that.
Wraps would be good. You could also bring crackers, cheese, lunchmeat, raw carrots, little boxes of raisins, celery and other healthy things like that. A hard boiled egg and a piece of cheese would give you lots of protein.
Pasta salad is a good idea, as are chicken or tuna salad with some greens. Or hummus and pita.
pasta is great , either that or fruit salad...or try pitta breads !! they're good , not exactly normal bread, ham and cream cheese filling is good :p

They sell little pre-made chicken or tuna packages with crackers that would be good. Also, Egg Salad would be good. Alternate between lunchmeat & PBJ or get some of those little cans of deviled ham or deviled chicken & crackers.
wraps sounds good :)
i suggest maybe salads or those south beach diet meals. even if you not on a diet. or even a slim fast meal. they keep you full for 4 hours and stay cool until lunch if you wrap them in aluminum foil.
sliced cucumbers, salad, wheat thins, bread and butter, carrots, oranges, chips, cookies, yogurt, jello, pudding, sliced cold meats,

Salsa and blue corn tortilla chips. Spicy enough to satisfy taste buds to know you've eaten, low in fat and calories. Peach cups, pear cups or pudding is also my fave
sliced cucumbers, sweet peppers, & cherry tomatos, any cold pasta dish .... cheese & crackers
