I always make salad for my lunches then I'll take a little something else to snack on. I don't keep any food at work so every week-end I'm making salad and something else. We were out of town both Saturday and Sunday and I didn't have anything for Monday lunch. I never eat out for lunch. Never. I prefer to eat at work then go somewhere for my lunch hour, usually to a park or a coffee shop. I could have decided to eat out but as I was looking in the fridge at leftovers I realized I might be able to pull something tasty and quick off.
We had rice left over from eating at Mr. Chen's, there were onions and carrots and some steamed broccoli and, of course, we always have eggs. So I chopped the onion and carrot and sauteed them, scrambled 4 eggs in a separate pan, then added the broccoli and rice along with some tamari, sesame and red pepper flakes. I ended up with enough fried rice to fill the take-out container and I had a quick homemade meal!
Once you have some of the basics, it's easy to come up with your own stuff.
