I'm trying to eat less wheat because it makes me fall asleep but it makes lunch a lot more tricksy, especially when I'm out and about. Sandwiches, wraps, couscous, uh, stuff like that: Right Out.

Now I have leftovers for lunch reasonably often but need ideas for things to have when I don't have any. I'm not talking vague things like salad, because I've got the vague covered. Particular things you buy to use as snacks or to make into lunchings would be very useful. I think I have forgotten how to shop for food other than meat, vegetables, milk and juice.

Thanks!

You can pre-cook yourself some stuff (grilled chicken or fish with vegetables and/or potatoes, some sort of wheatless pasta and sauce, taco/fajita bowls with rice & beans, etc.) and then just package them up into lunch portions to use over the next few days. It's like having leftovers without having leftovers :P

Hummus and raw veggies are a nice snack that can also serve as a lunch.

If you have access to a microwave, soup's an easy choice. Also pre-baked potato with some salsa or vegetables or beans or something over.

Fortunately both wheat-free and no/low-carb foods are kind of "faddish" at the moment so there are tons of recipes and tips and such online.

Whom should I vote for in November, Sareitha...? *waits expectantly* :P
