What food should I pack for lunch in school?!


Question: What food should I pack for lunch in school?
I want a nice lunch for school tomorrow but we really have nothing nice. I don't really like having a cheese and mayonnaise sandwich. I was thinking of having a sandwich with tomato in it but my parents and sister would usually tell me it would get all soggy. What snacks should I have? And a little drink too. All answers will be appreciated, thanks.

don't have any thing to heavy have something tha t is light but wlll still fill you
or if you still can't decide don't have anything at allll you will live (just for tomorrow )
and then go to the shops and buy something you do like



You can have tomatoes in your sandwich but it will get soggy maybe you can add a piece of lettuce on both sides to prevent that. Along with that you can have juice or water, those are your healthy options and a fruit, lastly you can have yogurt and/or a cookie(s).

Here is something that I like, but I doubt it'll taste good cold
boil an egg, break off the shell, cut it into slices and put it into slices of bread, you can have the bread plain or apply butter and cream cheese onto them.



If you want to have a tomato on your sandwich wrap it some saran wrap or a separate sandwich bag and then put it on your sandwich when you are ready.
Take leftovers from dinner, make a tortilla wrap sandwich, tuna or chicken salad, pasta, soup in a thermos, ask your mom to pick up whatever your favorite thing is from the store so you can it tomorrow.



You can have tomtoes in sandwiches just make sure the tomato isn't touching the bread, so you could have tomato and cheese for example and have bread - cheese - tomato - cheese - bread.

Other sandwich fillings =
corned beef
cold sausage
pate
jam
marmalade
lettuce
cucumber
tuna

Other things -
crisps
biscuits
chocolate bar
cereal bar
fruit



All snacks except those who give smell after some time of packing. The lunchbox should never stink as it is a big turn off among anyone. Drink can be powder which when mixed with water forms delicious drink chocolate milk powder, juice powder etc. Beverages should be as fresh, tasty, hygienic, clean and pleasant looking and smelling as possible.



I hate having sandwiches to school, last time I had one was probably 5 years ago :p Why don't you try a bagel with some cheese and ham ? I usually also take a nice yoghurt, rice cakes (plain or with topping) , an apple/orange/banana , some biscuits e.g Animals. And a bottle of flavoured water! You can also make some cookies or cupcakes and take them to school ? Hope I helped !



Hi Michelle, You could slice the tomato and wrap it separately from your sandwich and add it just before eating,or layer it between lettuce leaves. If you are fed up with the usual cold pasta snacks or chicken drumsticks etc.. you might get some inspiration from this site. I hope this helps,all the best. Rab

If you want a sandwich but don't want it to get soggy, pack the ingredients separately. Put the tomato slices in a little plastic container or baggie, then have the bread and other stuff separately and just assemble it when you are ready to eat.



It's hard to say without knowing what food you have on hand to use.

However, if you really want tomato in your sandwich, just put the slices of tomatoes in a separate plastic zip bag and then put them on your sandwich just before eating.



turkey sand which with lettuce and just a tiny bit of mustard trust me its amazing! , little blueberry muffins, goldfish, & chips:) or if not chips then an apple. for a drink do a gatorade or a water:)
