Help does anyone have good ideas for lunches on the go, as my husband is a driver and is needing packed lunches that can be prepared for his day and fit into this way of eating.

Hi vanessa, welcome to the forums!
Some suggestions :
The courgette bhajis from this website make an easy packed lunch and are just as nice cold.
Frittata
Slices of good ham spread with cream cheese and rolled up in a lettuce leaf.
Dips with crudites
The no carb ploughmans
Any kind of salad (egg, cheese, ham, chicken, tuna, bean) in a container
Some cheese, celery and apple.
Flask of home made soup
Hope that helps. 🙂

We do a nice coleslaw. Chop the white cabbage finely and add grated carrot, grated onion, a little chopped apple. Then additions can include celery and walnuts; peanuts; chunky chopped chicken, or other cold meat. The dressing can be any combination of yogurt, Mayo, or salad cream loosened with a little low fat salad dressing. It is surprisingly filling.

That sounds delicious, venusflytrap 🙂

thank you for the good ideas, please add any more is you have any.

Chicken cooked, in a little mayonnaise with some lemon juice, black pepper, spring onions. Little gem lettuce leaves as cups to eat from.
Soup is good too if you have a thermos tub to keep it warm, with the gram flour flatbreads.
I like eggs, salad leaves, houmous and crudités too. -
I was looking on the recipe list for a crust less quiche with veggies, figuring I could make it on the weekend and just have a slice every day or lunch. None there, so going to the source of all knowledge Google.

Maybe look for Frittata, I now some folk love them on here.

Hi syb, if you have a pan which can go on the hob and under the grill/in the oven a fritatta is perfect:
Fry some onion, pepper, garlic (veg of your own choice ).
When it is soft stir in a goid handful of rocket
Then add beaten eggs, quick stir
When half cooked place under grill to cook the topSimples! And fast! 🙂

Hi Syb. Try putting some asparagus, or broccoli, and a lilltle bit of feta or goats cheese in some greased muffin tins, cover with beaten egg and bake until set. Easy to transport and perfect with some salad.
