and yes i know there are options for sandwiches and salads... but anyone knows anything a bit more fancy and healthy at the same time?

The term healthy means different things to different people. For instance, a person who has had heart trouble and by-pass surgery is told to eat low-fat/low-cholesterol foods. So they have a "healthy" diet of very little meat and fats, lots of veggies and fruits, and breads, pasta, rice and noodles. When you convert a regular cookie recipe from a normal high-fat recipe to low-fat, you substitute with something like pureed prunes or applesauce which are high sugar.
But a person with diabetes has a totally different "healthy" diet. They are restricted on their carbs (sugar, things made with flour, fruit, rice, potatoes, noodles, etc.). So they can eat more meat, less fruit, and more veggies but steer clear of the breads, pasta, and noodles as well as rice. Low-fat desserts are made with the pureed prunes or applesauce which increases the sugar in the dessert so that is bad for a diabetic.
If a person is healthy - no heart disease - no diabetes - no diet restrictions because of other ailments, then the "healthy" diet is unprocessed foods - fresh foods. Meat with the fat trimmed off, fresh veggies - cooked or raw, fresh fruits - cooked or raw. Light on the desserts whether homemade or store-bought but homemade would be better because of less chemicals that keep it on the shelf longer. And, the best thing for a healthy person is basically portion control.
My grandmother always told me a person can eat any kind of food - just do it in moderation. She would take a steak and cook it and slice it, placing 4 thin slices on her plate for dinner. She would serve maybe 3 slices of zucchini, 3 slices of crookneck squash - both steamed with a little butter, salt and pepper added. She would also make a salad of shredded lettuce, diced radishes, diced onions, diced carrots, chopped tomatoes, baby shrimp, and a dressing made of mayonnaise, just a little sugar, black pepper and some milk to thin it out. She would then lightly coat the salad (before adding the shrimp) with the dressing, add the shrimp and gently mix. All that I described above would be her meal. She lived to 101 yrs old. She never had heart disease, didn't have diabetes, no illnesses that required any kind of diet restriction.
