I've missed this thread So many yummy things.
I'm off sick/working from home today, so I made spicy bean soup for lunch, but it wasn't packed.

I've got mixed bean salad with spinach, roasted veg and dukkah. Plus a couple of pears, a little apple and a small tub of pineapple.

I've been doing something different this week and loving it.
Get a bowl
Lay thin rice noodles in bottom
Add chopped and thin veg (pak choi, bean sprouts)
Add slivers of ginger (and chilli)
Add protein (tofu or prawns in my case)
Add chopped green spring onion ends
Add chopped coriander
Cover with hot water from a kettle or hydroboil and put a well-fitting plate over for 15 mins.
Uncover then add soya sauce and lime juice before eating.
Last week I used chicken stock from a cube on one day and miso paste on another. I plan to bring fish sauce and mirin into work + aromatics like lemon grass and lime leaves. I always include complex carb, protein, veg carbs, aromatics, liquid and toppings and try to keep it on a theme (Chinese, Korean, Thai, Japanese). I may try a minestrone next week with Parmesan grated over the top and tiny cooked pasta thrown in.
The soup isn't as tepid as you would expect - it seems to hold its heat reasonably well.

Interesting, thanks RS. I might try this for a dinner. I would probably forget something if I did it as a packed lunch.

Beccca - you could do the prep the night before and tip it into a bowl at work. A couple of people at work have shown an interest, so I typed a simple table to give them ideas under each category.
