I’ll make a batch of pasta. I’ll also open a can of peas or corn. I have these 2-compartment lunch containers and I’ll put the pasta in one (add sauce) and the vegetable in the other compartment, then freeze them. Then I’ll have some ready made meals that just need to be microwaved for a couple minutes. Also, since it’s frozen, I don’t have to eat it right away, so I can get some variation.

Burritos are another food that freezes well. I’ll get a can of re-fried beans, add taco seasoning, then cook it. Spread it on a tortilla, add some cheese, and then freeze. Extremely cheap and easy.

As the previous commenter stated, wraps are an excellent idea. I got a pack of tomato basil wraps from Wal-mart, added grilled chicken strips, lettuce and tomatoes, and it was awesome.

Consider trying wraps. A flavored tortilla can really refresh an old sandwich recipe — and even inspire some new ingredients.

Also, you might look into bento box recipes. Don’t be intimidated by some of the more creative recipes, there are a lot of bento recipes that are easy to make. And since they’re meant to be eaten away from home, good bento recipes are designed with transport and food safety in mind.
