Okay here is what is going on: I am taking a dish to work for lunch (it will be something small and simple) anyways we do not have a refrigerator. I don't care about what we don't eat but it will be our for four hours before we eat. So, I need something that is cold but that will stay good in a container (I will place it in a pyrex container and I have a carrier). So, I need a simple recipe but that I don't need to heat up and that will be good after four hours of sitting out. If you have any other questions please let me know.

You don't leave us much to go on.....could you give us one hint? Are you saying that you need to fix a meal but you can not put the left overs in the refrigerator?

nfd?

I HOPE SOME THE RECIPES I SENT HELPED!!!! Make deli sandwiches. We need to know more what do you like More or less. chief salad turkey sandwich Oder's chips dip finger foods I think you mean a 'room temperature' food that will not spoil if set out for a couple of hours.
Try a Pasta salad, using extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar as the dressing.
Pasta like rigatoni
Some broccoli florets or asparagus pieces
Some tomato chunks
Onions, chopped
Olives, chopped,
You can even add some pepperoni,
And, of course, a bit of feta cheese (it is salted so does not spoil easily!).
And, whatever bits and pieces of veggies you may have in the fridge!!!
Good luck! Peanut butter on bread, crackers, or graham crackers.

Canned Vienna sausages, and canned Port & Beans.

Tins of different types of fish such as tuna, sardines, salmon, kippers.

Beef hash in a can.

Canned soups.

Oatmeal, Cream of Wheat.

Cereals with mixed powdered milk.

Instant breakfast mixed with powdered milk. Spaghetti Salad

Cook the spaghetti as directed and drain. Put it in a bowl and add 1 cucumber, 1 onion and one green pepper and one diced tomato (all chopped). Then add 1 bottle of Italian Dressing and one bottle of McCormick Salad Supreme. Mix together and enjoy.

Frito Bean Salad

one can of mixed beans, one can of red kidney beans and one can of garbanzo beans. Add one bottle of French Dressing and mix. Purchase also a bag of regular size Frito Corn Chips and when you are ready to serve mix in the Frito's. But you have to remember to not mix them until you are ready to eat it. Enjoy.

Neither needs to be refrigerated and both of them will wow all the others! Everyone will want the recipe of both! Mediterranean mixed salad:
baby greens or arugula mixed with romaine hearts
marinated artichoke hearts
diced Roma or halved pear tomatoes
small shell pasta or linguine cut into smaller pieces
(toss pasta in a pesto sauce)
grilled or baked off yellow squash and green zucchini
toasted almonds (slivered)and toasted pecan halves
pitted kalamata olives, or sliced black olives

dressing: olive oil (extra virgin), balsamic or red wine vinegar, salt and pepper, thyme&oregano (dried is fine).
do not add dressing until 15-20 minutes before service.
Good luck Fruit and Cheese Tray

Fruit - assorted like grapes, pineapple chunks, banana chunks (you can cut up at last minute or toss with some diluted lemon juice so it doesn't brown), figs, apple or pear wedges (do the lemon juice trick mentioned above), strawberries

Cheeses - not cream cheese but aged cheese such as gouda, harvarti, gruyere, cheddar, stilton, all improve in flavor at room temperature

Crackers - oysterettes, butter type (think ritz), cracker sticks (pumpernickels my fave), bread sticks, melba toasts, bagel chips.. anything crunchy and salty to go with or that the fruit and cheese can sit on.

OR
Zippy Veggie Tray:
radishes (white icicle the best),
carrots, cauliflower, jicama strips,
kohlrabi slices, bell pepper strips.

Make a great dipping oil. Make it the day before so the flavors can infuse the oil thoroughly using:
1 cup of a flavorful virgin olive oil
or choose something very mild like canola
1/4 cup dried chopped onion
1/4 cup dried chopped garlic
1/8 cup (or to taste) red hot pepper flakes
1 tablespoon black pepper
salt to taste (about 1 tsp, but start small and adjust) You can make a nice Rice Pilaf that doesn't have any meat products in it. It will keep nicely. So Google Rice Pilaf.
