Answer #1

I used to work 12 hour shifts, those things suck. Here’s what I did sometimes, I used those pre-made bags of salads. It has the lettuce, croutons, and dressing all in one bag, just put the in the fridge and open and mix when ready to eat!

Answer #2

You could make up some cheap kitchen cupboard soup recipes and freeze them in batches. Soup is simple to re-heat so should be good for your husband at work.

Answer #3

Heh heh! I love love love that someone just wrote a recipe for a sandwich. That was…adorable, frankly.

Soup is your most economical way to go. A pot of homemade minestrone or chicken noodle costs about 20 bucks, and lasts for about 15 bowls. Freeze it in tupper/gladware and it’s a grab-n-go meal. Plus, soup really lets you stretch your creativity in the kitchen. Experimenting with finishes alone (balsamic? lime? who knows?) could last through to the next presidency.
