I tried sweet corn fritters from the SW site the other day, found them a bit eggy so added some smash which improved them. X

I take a chopped fruit salad like blueberries and strawberries, u can have 4 original ryvita as a healthy extra and could top it off with cheese triangle (I think its 4 light ones for a healthy extra), quick fruit like an apple. Or ready to go crudités like chopped carrot and cucumber. Hope that helps

Sw quiches are great to make in advance or crudite. You could make falafel or curried dahl loaf.

I often make the curried dahl loaf specifically to take to work over a couple of days. It's even better cold as it firms up more. And it's Free!

Boiled eggs are a life saver and loads of fruit! Quiche is a really good one as well I'm totally on board with that one!

This is Pete's version from his recipe thread:
Pete’s Chickpea Dahl (2014)
Serves 4
Ingredients
3 medium size eggs (ff)
120g packet of Sainsbury’s Indian style curry savoury rice (ff)
400g Aldi Chickpea Dahl (ff)
S & P

Method

Cook the rice as per the packet instructions, drain in a sieve then allow to cool.
Pre-heat the oven to 180C.
Mix the rice with the chickpeas & eggs, season well.
Tip the mixture in to a shallow tin tray, lined with greaseproof paper, cook for 25 mins then insert a skewer, if it comes out clean, it’s cooked, if not cook for a few minutes more.
Lift the mix from the tin & allow to cool on a wire rack.

Several supermarkets do a chickpea dahl, just check they are free (I use Tesco's). I also use just plain rice I cook myself, and sometimes I add chopped onion fried in Frylight as well. It's very versatile - play about with it to suit your tastes!

Forgot to add, if you use plain rice you will probably want to up the seasoning - curry powder, chilli, etc.
