Hi, this is my first post so please help me out!

i've recently started running and need more interesting (and more importantly healthy) ideas for lunch - i work in an office and normally have a boring roll, yoghurt, fruit etc. Hopefully some of you can give me some inspiration for more exciting and tasty lunchtimes! thanks

Why not knock up some pasta at home and have it cold at lunchtime.

Do you have access to a microwave? Soup? Jacket spuds?

 

[the-dude-abides]

I don't know how you feel about sweet potatos but they make a nice change from the humble spud and offer more nutrional variety.

 

[the-dude-abides]

hmm, i do like them but i don't really know how to prepare them - can you just stick them in the microwave like a normal spud?

 

[Steady Edwina]

Yes you just cook them like normal spuds but they cook slighty quicker. I might have to get one tomorrow now.

Good question. I was weaned on fish and chips - in the days when you could buy five fish suppers for half a crown (12½p). Bet you've been reading the Alf Tupper poem with a verse that reads:
Never ever cheated
No sarcastic quips
The secret of this man's success?
Good old fish'n chips.

Aye, beats all your rabbit food!
Cheers!
