Been doing the same sandwich thing for like 6 months and I'm over it. Looking for something I can meal prep on Sunday that doesn't get soggy by Wednesday. Open to suggestions, trying to save money too so nothing crazy expensive.
Leftovers from dinner the night before are my go-to. Throw them in a container and you've got a legit meal instead of the same thing every day. What's your budget looking like?
I started doing those rice bowl things with different proteins and veggies. Takes like 10 minutes to prep a week's worth and you can mix it up daily just by changing the sauce or toppings.
Pasta salad with the dressing on the side is clutch. Or I'll do hard boiled eggs, cheese, fruit, and crackers in a bento style box - nothing gets soggy and it feels less boring than a sandwich.
I've been there man, same sandwich every day kills the soul. I do a lot of grain bowls on Sunday - keeps everything in a separate container until lunch and you just mix it up right before eating. Game changer.
Dude, try doing pulled pork or brisket on Sunday and then just switching up what you put it with through the week. I grill extra on weekends and it's been a lifesaver for my work lunches.
Pasta salad, my man. Make a big batch on Sunday, grab a container every morning, done. Holds up all day and way better than a sandwich after 6 months of the same routine.

I feel you on the sandwich burnout. I started meal prepping some stuff on Sundays - wraps are way better than sandwiches and you can load them with different proteins and veggies. Takes the same time but tastes so much better.
