A salad and soycheese sandwiche: tomato, lettuce and Toffutti soy cheese slice!. I bought this from Holland and Barrett a few weeks ago, it's really good!.
Some fruit, like an apple, pear, satsuma or banana
Some houmous and vegetable sticks (such as carrot batons)!.
I buy smoked tofu, beansprout and chilli jam sandwiches all the time but you can make them at home so it's cheaper- maybe give it a try!. It's the best vegan sandwiche I have ever tasted!. =]

I travel all day and don't have access to a microwave or fridge, so I pack!. Today, I had sliced avocado with tomatoes and red leaf lettuce on a wheat pita!. It was surprisingly delicious! I soaked the avocado in some lemon water before I packed it to keep it from browning!. This sandwich keeps well in a cooler!. Try it!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Make a veggie sandwich!. Put tomatoes, lettuce, sprouts, pickles, avocado and mustard all on two pieces of whole wheat bread!.
For a side dish, bring a baggie of celery and apple slices with a container of organic peanut butter to dip them in!.
If you want something to drink you can take along a bottle of water with a pack of protein powder!.
Hope I helped :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

I see some good ideas that I would have suggested!. Even better, I think you should consider going to this site ran by a mom who packs her son's and other's lunches!. She even has a book or two out, I believe about packing vegan lunches!.
