My mum was a full time teacher and mum to 3 of us and this happened a few times a week, and
She would call it a COLD PLATE,
We had a slice of cucumber, tomato, a boiled egg, a slice of cheese, a piece of bread, or kinda anything in the fridge, even pickles etc.
We thought at the time it was great and now do this with our kiddies.
I do a cold plate for the kids too!
Jaffles...with anything you have. My favourite's are baked beans and cheese, tinned spag and cheese and leftover bolognaise sauce and cheese.
A lot of my faves are already here:
Jacket potato (in the microwave) w baked beans, cheese or tuna, corn & mayo
Quiche with baked beans
Baked beans on toast
Packet macaroni cheese:redface: (I generally don't eat processed foods)
Tuna pesto pasta
Cheese and vegemite toasted sanga
Vitawheats and something
Or we usually have a big batch of homemade spaghetti sauce or risotto that DP has made.
A modification of a Ploughman's Lunch perhaps?
We had a family friend who had a meat and salad sandwich for dinner every night, as she said it held all the food groups and wasn't too heavy on her stomach for when she went to bed.
Omelettes are great.
Otherwise a very quick stirfry with noodles (frozen vege, frozen chicken sliced very thin, teriyaki sauce, noodles) in the wok about 5 mins great...
Icecream if you're really desperate lol
