Chicken salads as an entree or chicken salad sandwiches.
Shrimp salad

Ham salad
Cold smoked, baked or poached salmon with some cold sides
Roasted, grilled or steamed various veggies
Fruits
Hoagies with cold meats like ham, salami... and cheeses, add a little vinaigrette to those right before you eat.

I can't handle sardines

Turkey sandwich on toasted bagel with hummus and avocado lettuce tomato

Very filing. I used to eat them often when I was pregnant and always starving.

My apologies, I read tractor and figured you were a man.

Two ham and cheese sandwiches, extra mustard
Two single serving bags of chips
Pack of cheese crackers
Little Debbie


My day on a tractor lunch sack

Make yourself some chicken burritos.

Can of black beans
Can of corn
half an onion diced up
a clove of garlic diced up
a bag of shredded cheese
a pack of taco seasoning.
a pack or two of the precooked grilled chicken strips for fajitas, chopped up

Drain the corn and beans well. Throw everything into a gallon ziploc and mix well and stash in the fridge. When you want a burrito, you just grab the bag from the fridge and roll one up. Wrap it tightly in foil and you can stash it in the engine compartment to warm it up and melt the cheese. You only have to stop to toss it on the engine and to pull it back into the cab with you.

Google ploughman's lunch. Don't forget the beer part.

You can switch up your sandwiches more often. Roast beef, ham and cheese, egg salad, tuna/chicken salad... maybe your sides are what needs a pick up. Rather than chips you can do fresh fruit to cool you off, or veggies and hummus.

Veggie sandwich of hummus, olives, cucumbers, cheese. PB and J's are always good... personallly I do sunflower butter and usually a strawberry jam.

A big salad is pretty good too when you've been in the hot sun all day. Whatever lettuce you want.. couple veggies, tomatoes carrots cucumbers peppers, maybe some cheese or meat. Whatever dressing.. shake it up in its bowl.

I'd rather have homemade chocolate chip cookies or a hunk of cake than a Little Debbie. In my early 80s childhood, we ate Nutty Bars by the ton. I tried one a few years ago & boy, was it terrible. I can recall a decent chocolate coating that stuck to the wrapper in warm weather; the modern version was coated in practically inedible brown waxy weirdness.
