You can make yourself sandwiches (BLTs and Chicken mayo and lettuce are my favourites).

Personally I am not a huge sandwich person unless they are freshly made. I make myself greek salad by cutting tomato and cucumber (but if you don't like these you can use capsicum), mixed leaves, some avocado and crumbled feta cheese. In Australia these don't seem to get too hot out of the fridge so maybe a good one to try?

Fruit like grapes, peaches, mangoes, nectarines, mandarins, kiwi fruit are all good especially if you cut them in advance and can just nibble on them.

Mini quiches or frittatas are good (using low fat dairy)...

Rosti (potato pancakes) are good (grate potato - squeeze to get rid of excess moisture, mix with one egg and some flour and fry using oil spray and a LITTLE bit of butter to taste). If you like you can throw some grated zucchini/corgette and/or sweet potato into the mix. You can then serve them with some thin sliced ham or some salad or smoked salmon or poached eggs if you are at home...

For something sweet, pancakes are good. Mix together plain flour, baking powder, sugar, 3 egg yolks and milk. Fold in 3 beaten egg whites (should be beaten until stiff peaks form). Fry in a pan and throw some fruit (banana, blueberries etc) before you flip. Serve with jam/jelly, maple syrup or lemon juice and sugar.

make yourself a pb & j sandwich or ham and cheese. and if you have leftovers and yer school has a microwave, you can take pasta or something, and even if your school doesn't have a microwave, cold pasta is still great :) and sometimes you can go to trader joe's or ralphs and get their ready to eat salad. those salads are sooooo yummy :) side meals can be like an apple or carrot sticks and maybe a small bag of chips.
