I worked bedside nursing. Where i worked we always had extra food trays patients didn't want, meaning I could get up to 2 meals a shift for free.

On paper prohibited but where I worked at this was very extended, convenient and fast.

Changed workplaces and I cannot get any free food anymore. I simply don't know what to bring to the workplace.

If its of any help I like cooking stews, but it's gonna be a hassle to bring that to the workplace. And to bring a sandwich or buy one at the cafeteria? I'll pass.

What items did you like to eat? You could probably start with bringing the ones that require less time to prepare.

I'll take half a day on the weekend to meal prep for the week, after which I just heat up refrigerated meals. Changes every week, but usually lunch will be some form of chicken with brown rice as the base, whatever vegetables are in season or at least easy to cook, maybe beans or an egg, a piece of fruit, and a couple snacks (cookie, yogurt, slice of pie, etc.)
