I'm looking for cheap, fast & easy lunch ideas for work?
Eating the frozen box for lunch is cheap sure but gets old fast ! I work in Bellevue WA and need some CHEAP lunch ideas.... brown bag or a great lunch special ...So yahoo what are you eating for lunch today ???
Answers:
You could pack your own lunch, try making a sandwich the night before and packing up a little bag with some chips and fruit and gummy snacks with the sandwich. Then, in the morning, just grab the bag and go! This is will save you more money in the end, and it will be healthier. At first it may seem like a lot of work, but once you get into the routine, it will pay off!

that's what I do!
salads gives you a variety to choose from (different ingredients and combinations)
Go tho McDonalds........ i like there burgers!
1) salad 2) sandwich 3) sushi rolls (cucumber, avocado, crabmeat) 4) tortilla rollups (or ones with lunchmeat and veggies) 5) crackers and cheese and grapes
When I eat out, i order off the "lunch specials" section. Its usually a good deal. I work in downtown San Diego, and almost every restaurant has a "lunch special' section. Most places around here throw in a free dessert if you order it to go.
Today I think I'm getting some vegetarian pizza!

I don,t like cold sandwiches unless there some think like left overs like meat loaf or cold pork chops and cottage ham cold is the best sand which you can make.
