What food do you take to work /fit/? Need something that's filling and high in protein for work meals.
I don't work.

I work at home.
Shit's hectic, so I still tend to prepack or go with simple things. My most common lunch is a can of tuna with yellow mustard on 12-grain toast.
Often I'll do something in the pressure cooker on Sunday, like a loosely Mexican flavored pulled chicken. I'll eat on that all week. Usually as part of a salad. I try to emulate my usual double black bean, double chicken, no rice, salad from Chipotle.
My roommate packs whatever he had as leftovers the night before when he was watching his wife's kids. Often pasta.
(He's not going to make it.)

I'll usually just throw some chicken or beef in one container and some kinda spinach salad in another. Easy.

leftovers from dinner
Ground turkey, cauliflower, brown rice. Every. Fucking. Day.
Hey, at least it's not fucking chicken breast.

>Get a big ass pot and or slow cooker
>Cook all my food in advance
>Do big one pot batches of shit
>Everytime I cbf cooking (like ~2 - 3 times a week) double or triple the recipe (8-12 serves)
>Stew, Chilli, Taco meat chicken instead of beef, with extra veg / sweet potato, etc
>Or cook like half of something, so curried sausages veg / sauce or pasta sauce, only have to add rice / pasta
>Freeze everything in flat packed zip locked bags
>Have ~30 meals in the freezer at all times
Pull shit out night before work defrost it, if you avoid freezing stuff that tastes like shit after being frozen you can't even tell the difference, never eat shit again.

If you want something high in protein and filling red beans and rice is very filling and high in protein.

eating at work
pick one

Pre soak the beans.
A little baking soda when boiling them will help reduce gas.
I eat beans at work all the time.
last week I done this
boiled 6 chicken thighs
had a pan of mince beef onion and black been sauce
and a pan of turkey mince with onion and garlic in it.
then after that was cooked a pan of sweet potatoes,rice and a broccoli and green beans.
That made 6 meals and took about an hour.
then I would take in a tin of tuna with a potato or bread in or a pack of eggs in.
Pasta with grilled chicken and pesto, it's dellish cold as well for when I don't have access to a microwave.

> his wife's kids.

Yeah. That's what I was implying.
But really, they're just going through a divorce. He's been watching the kids at night this week while she goes through the mandatory training for her new waitressing job. She hasn't worked in about 6 years since the oldest was born. Now that he's leaving her, she feels like maybe getting a job is important.
I still think he's been beta as fuck for their whole relationship, and this is the inevitable result of when a man refuses to step up and be the head of the household.
