More carbs than would be in a handful of crackers or pretzels. "Healthy" certainly varies by person. Bring vegetarian AND knowing my own body and habits I have to actively be aware of limiting carbs and am better off filling up on veggies. I'm not judging anyone's sandwich, but I've lost weight and getting way more veggie intake when I'm home without even trying and this is the main difference in my diet.

Just use a good sprouted grain bread like Ezekiel bread. The bread alone is a good source of protein. But you could do a PB&J, tomato and cheese sandwich or avocado, cucumbers, arugula. Egg and cheese sandwich (id fry egg at home, let cool, build the sandwich, then microwave a bit when ready to eat at work). There are also sprouted grain wraps or good quality whole grain wraps if you can’t find spouted grain. Fill with hummus and cut veggies. Incorporating whole grains would be healthier option (fprotein, fiber, and filling) than having handfuls of pretzels and rice cakes- which offer little nutrition

I do tofu salad (like egg salad but with tofu) with LOTS dog veggies, and eat it with sliced cucumbers and crisp bread. Very filling

You can make your own Mediterranean bowl with hummus or baba ghanoush, baby kale/greens, feta, olives, shredded purple cabbage or carrots, and cucumber/tomatoes/whatever veggies you like. I arrange it so all the items are separate and I can mix it together (or not) when I’m eating. I bring an olive oil/balsamic dressing on the side. And maybe a whole wheat pita or some pita chips. It’s kind of like all the snacks I like arranged into a meal.

I like your list OP. I usually pack a string cheese, almonds and a protein shake for work snacks. I make a big salad in a Tupperware container for lunch. Sometimes too many options makes me eat all the snacks at once

I read your title as “snarky” lunches and thought it was a classic DCUM question. Sorry I don’t have any suggestions for you but you gave me a good laugh.

Can you do like a summer bean salad, Greek pasta salad , or like a Pico salsa.
I'm embarrassed to say I ate a third of Costco's 7 layer dip with pita chips the other day . So good.
