I've recently been bringing crackers with a can of tuna and cucumbers to school because i've been eating sandwiches for the past 11 years and i am very very sick of it.

I have access to the year 12 kitchen which has microwaves/toasters/sandwich presses/hot water. I'm looking for a healthy, easy-to-prepare lunch recipe

I've gotten tired of the stereotypical PB&J, apple, and water lunches. I'd love some healthy nutritious ideas. Preferable something that can be eaten in about a half hour, at school. Thank you very much!

(10 points goes to most ideas!!!)
