What are some nice tasting healthy school lunch ideas that a teenager can make easily and cheaply?

Q. I would like ideas or recipes of healthy lunch snacks that i can make without it costing too much and lacking in taste

thanks

A. 4 small chicken breasts, sliced into strips
1 tablespoon Cajun spice
2 teaspoons olive oil
4 large flour tortillas
1/2 cup tzatikki dip
1 medium zuccini, grated
1 large carrot, grated

Method:
1. Place chicken strips, Cajun spice and oil in a bowl, cover and set aside for 10 minutes.

2. Heat a large non-stick fry pan over a medium-high heat.

3. Place the chicken strips in the pan and cook, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes or until brown and cooked through. Transfer to a bowl and keep warm.

4. Top each tortilla with Tzatziki dip, carrot, zuccini and grated carrot.

5. Serve immediately, or wrap for later use with a green salad of your choice.


Or a sandwich with a salad can be an easier alternative.
Salads are really good also.


Lunch ideas for school ? Something different and healthy ? And suitable for a 15 year old ?
Q. I'm about to be enrolled into a new school and this school doesn't have a cafeteria so all students have to bring their own food.I'm tired of traditional lunches and I don't care for juvenile things like pb&j sandwiches.I need something that is different,healthy,tasty,suitable for a teenager.And something besides sandwiches. Any ideas ? Vegetarian/vegan recipes are acceptable.
@ Jenna,lol.

A. Chuck away the pb&j and put your mind into gear for some really good sandwiches

Asparagus rolls are well know and are popular, tomato and egg, cheese and vegemite, jam, honey, marmalade, cucumber, cold meats, lettuce, grated carrots and raisins, cheese and pineapple.
Test and explore combinations, types of garnishes, chutneys, pickles, relishes, different types of bread, buns and rolls,Hamanan


What are some fast school lunches for a teenager?
Q. I'm a freshman in high school and I have to make my lunch to bring to school. I can bring things that need to be refrigerated and things that need under a minute in the microwave. I don't really like sandwiches very much, or at least not normal ones like peanut butter and jelly just because I've had them way too much. I kind of want something more unique for lunch. I can cook just about anything, so any recipe will work, it just needs to be fast! I really can't spend more than 20 minutes on lunch each day unless it's a special occasion, and even 20 minutes is pushing it. Thanks! :)

Also, I know I already posted this but it's in the wrong category.

A. I'm 15 and I bring in loads of stuff. For instance if I have pasta or rice for dinner, I put it into a plastic tupperware and for lunch it becomes a salad, and I can just grab it in the morning. However you may not like that. Other days I bring in soup and bread, however this requires heating in the morning and carrying in a thermos flask- this may take too long however it only takes me 10 minutes. Also I sometimes make pasta fresh sometimes and put it into a flask too to keep it warm- this takes 15 minutes however while its cooking I eat breakfast, get dressed, brush my teeth etc.
If I bring a sandwich I put philly cream cheese in it with tomato, or hummus, or cheese and cucumber, depends every day. Im vegetarian however in your sandwich you could put turkey or chicken or beef if you eat those, maybe even cold meats from dinner the night before. WIth the sandwich I normally bring a healthy equivalent to crisps like rice cakes or veg sticks like carrots, and a piece of fruit. Also maybe something chocolatey or sweet too, alongside a drink like a smoothie or juice and a piece of fruit.
