4 slices of white bread, butter and cheese.
A yogurt, packet of crisps, an apple and a banana.
My wife often asks if I get bored with the same thing, I don't.
Not very healthy I know but it keeps me going.
The most important thing for me though is a flask of strong coffee.
Never stop off to buy something warm I'm too stingy.
Work lunch is the same everyday lol
seedy brown bread, chive philadelphia, ham, cucumber, pepper.
2 yoghurts and 2 homemade muffins (when i make them)
2 bananas
Used to be 2 packs McCoys cheddar & onion, but seem to have stopped buying them. Nuts instead now.
2 lts of special mix robinsons fruit and barley Orange + Pink grapefruit + some tropicana ruby breakfast.
OK, i'm boring myself now.
We get the odd tea/coffee from clients. Avoid too much coffee as it dehydrates.
Winter is more exciting with homemade potato and leak soup in a flask to go with Sarnies.
I cook at home most nights and make enough for the next day's lunch. I sit in the van quite happily and munch some cold stew, potatoes, lasagne, paella, curry and roast meat. Even rice is ok cold if it's steamed and mixed with a sauce. Do a lot of quiche too as we have chickens which can be divine cold for lunch.
Between jobs I tend to have a yoghurt or two, come homemade cookies or other chocolate, a couple of bananas and a few apples too, plus water and a flask of coffee (not enough time to make a proper brew in the van as I hate drinking instant!).
If I don't eat this all I can think of is food when I'm working and it's very distracting!
Salads, pasta
Fruit
I don't eat cake, crisp, sweets or drink fizzy pop
We've a kettle in a watertight brew box, fresh milk brought in each morning / afternoon
All cold drinks through out the summer are kept in the water butts
I can never be ar$ed to make sandwiches and find them dull normally anyway - not a massive sliced bread fan. I'm just trying to think of the best possible easy to take foods - something I can start if I want to and return to (like the salad bars)...
The only thing I HAVE to have is a packet of nuts in the glove box - something to munch on the keep the wolf from the door.
Great thing with these packs is that if they don't get eaten, they are still wrapped up and can be used the next day, unlike a sandwich which goes soggy and yuck.
And there was I think it was just landscape gardening :)
