Wow, edible gold leaf is really expensive. $25 for a couple 3x3 inch squares. Try substituting edible gold paint.

Just eat sandwiches.

Switch up the bread, meat, and veggies every time you go shopping, and try different combinations of condiments.

Do people really ever get sick of sandwiches?

just get some shaved smoked meat from a deli, mix with eggs, horseradish, lettuce, sour cream, and hot sauce, maybe some raw or cooked onion, wrap it up and see you later, you can probably make 10 for like 20 bucks, so eat 2 per lunch and you're under budget.

That's not a sandwich though.

There's only so much variation I can do of deli meat/cheese/salad before it gets boring.

Shooter's sandwiches

Try caviar, or gold lined asparagus then, Goldylocks.

peanut butter and jelly, cold cuts and cheese, tuna fish

I eat the same thing every day and purchase ingredients as needed. I switch up when I get bored.

Ham, chicken, provolone, mayo, mustard, hot sauce.
Ham, salami, pepperoni, provolone, mayo, sriracha.
Turkey, provolone, mayo, mustard, soul seasoning, tabasco.
Ham+Pimiento cheese
Etc.

With just a few different ingredients and a variety of condiments you've got hundreds of options here. I like to mix up my sides too. Chips, cheetos, goldfish, crackers, apple, mandarins, oreos. Mix up your breads too, they freeze well so you can keep more than one type on hand.

>no fruit or veggies

The only way I could ever imagine getting sick of sandwiches is if they were nothing but meat and cheese on bread with condiments. Without the vegetation it isn't pleasant to eat at all.

The classic Ploughman's is the best lunch.

Women have actually complemented me on it.

>"ploughman's lunch" is believed to date no further back than the 1950s, when the Cheese Bureau (a marketing body affiliated to the J. Walter Thompson advertising agency) began promoting the meal in pubs as a way to increase the sales of cheese

Are you a man or a sheep?

I just make a bunch of food for a meal on the weekends, and then freeze the leftovers to have for easy lunches.

Last week, I made pulled pork tacos and froze the leftover meat. Just packed up the cold ingredients in a bag on the side.

This week I'm having leftover bean and ham hock with rice much to the chagrin of my co-workers. It's all about planning ahead.

Yeah I usually pack lunch at 5 on the morning and I'm not taking tone to clean up anything that I've got to slice. I can make my sandwiches on a cutting board and wipe the crumbs. I prefer my fruit separate from the sandwich in a bag lunch anyway.
