...That are satisfying! And not too expensive.
I'm blanking! We've been trying to avoid carbs, but it isn't happening at lunch. I used to do frozen burritos or quinoa salads but trying to cut out grain takes those out of contention.
Make ahead is ok if I can freeze.

I usually make a roast on the weekend and eat that a few times throughout the week. I get plenty of fruits and veggies on the job at work so I really only pack a meat. At the moment I'm eating pork loin.
My favorite low carb pantry lunch is a can of sardines + an avocado + oil & vinegar. Sounds soooo gross but it's really yummy and filling.

I like eating a salad w/ a turkey burger patty! We just break up the patty as we're eating the salad. Makes the salad so filling and satisfy a burger craving somewhat!

Anything with cheese is pretty filling because of the good fat in it.

I do lettuce wraps with tuna/chicken/lunch meat & low fat cheese.
Soups - veggie/broth based (WW has a good one)
Spinach Salad loaded with veggies, avacado, and egg.
A little carb - whole grain/wheat wrap instead of bread for sandwich

I made this salad last night for dinner, it was really yummy! We had it with these super yummy baked hot wings, but you could also just top it with grilled chicken
these were the hot wings I did, it'd be good with chicken breasts as well. ( I baked the wings in the sauce instead of baking the wings then putting the sauce on top
