I'm trying to bring my lunch to work every day, to save money. I'm looking for recipe ideas that

a) can be served cold since I don't have access to a way to heat up my food.
b) don't have processed meats in them. (Ideas for how to use left over chicken, pork, etc. would be great, but I don't eat commercial lunch meat.)
c) are quick to prepare.
d) have veggies in them.
e) can be transported easily. (I take public transit to work, so things that pack light and small are important.)

I like healthy foods, and love tofu, and I try to avoid processed foods when I can.

Ideas? As a thank you, I offer up one idea that I came up with the other day.



Ingredients:
- large tortillas
- hummus
- assorted veggies (lettuce, shredded carrots, diced tomatoes, shredded cabbage, cucumber slices, bean sprouts, etc.)

Toss the tortilla onto a large cast iron skillet or microwave it for about 10 seconds to soften it up. Spread some hummus onto the wrap. Add your veggies. Wrap it up. Enjoy.

summer rolls! leftovers of any sort (i love using leftover stirfry) wrapped up in rice wrappers. wonderful cold, and you can dab a bit of dipping sauce inside before rolling so you don't need to take anything messy separately.
