I sometimes buy the house roasted turkey breast from the WF deli. It’s pricey but good in a pinch.

No smoked salmon.

It is delicious, but stinky. Too stinky for a teen to bring to school.

You can also make chilli, cook till you reduce most of the liquid, add cooked corn, shaved carrots, salad greens, cheese, lettuce etc and make a sandwich in a sandwich maker like below.

With a sandwich maker - you can put in any protein (like egg salad) between two slices of bread and make a beautifully sealed and toasted sandwich.



Lmao this is taking me out

Season the outside of a pork tenderloin, then sear in a cast-iron or stainless skillet on stovetop. Stick in oven at 375 for about 20 minutes. Cool and slice thin. Fabulous for sandwiches.

I imagine this makes a lot, at least 2 lbs. We might have deli meat for a sandwich maybe once or twice a week. I feel like cooked poultry doesn’t freeze and thaw well.

My daughters likes tomato mozzarella pesto on a soft baguette

Funny was just searching today if there are brands that truly have no nitrates, not even celery - it seems a couple brands have this and will begin to become more available.

Nothing stinky!

No salmon, tuna, or egg salad.

Office etiquette rules, ladies.

Don't bring a lunch that makes other people gag.

Smoked salmon is delicious.

But no high school student wants to be the person that brings that smell into the school, or a person with smoked salmon breath for the rest of the day

If you care about your kid's social status, nothing stinky like smoked salmon or other fish.

What about a caprese sandwich? Ciabatta bread, sliced mozzarella, sliced tomatoes or sun dried tomatoes, a bit of basil and olive oil.

pimento cheese

cucumber and cream cheese (veggie cream cheese, chive cream cheese, etc, can make it better)
