On the other hand, you probably won't want to eat 15 apples either, so mix it up. Then, like Nylander, get a system. When you dish up dinner, fill your lunch containers at the same time. If you make a big pot of something, freeze the extra in single servings rather than in bulk. Make both brown and white rice on Sunday night to use during the week.
Great leftovers make great lunches.
If you have almost no time or rarely cook, multiple snacks may work for you. And finally, stave off monotony by thinking variety. If you take sandwiches, buy several kinds of bread, like rye, whole wheat and pumpernickel. Put several slices of each in plastic bags for the week and freeze the rest for next week. Flavored tortillas and pita bread are also tasty low-fat sandwich alternatives.
