I work 16 hour shifts 5 days a week so I normally don't have time to make much. Bur I normally make some pasta in a red sauce with a few chunks of sausage throw in.

Rice is normalized here (USA). Nobody thinks about weeabs or any of that shit for eating rice. White people eat it, latinos eat it, blacks eat it, asians most definitely eat it. Of course bread and potatoes and pasta are ahead but not by a particularly large margin

Big bowl of salad.

All of OP's quota will be met.

Toss your salad fixings into a bowl, rinse clean with water, then divide salads into smaller rubbermaid or tupperware containers and stack them into the fridge.

Grab a bag of frozen (or fresh) chicken breasts, sling them into a glass baking dish and season to your liking, bake and then slice into thick slices and then toss them into a zip lock baggie.

Every morning, grab a salad and a few chicken strips and toss them in together and throw it in your bag and run out the door.

Cheap, easy, healthy, filling.

I also recommend prepping fruit and veggies for breakfast smoothies. invest in a good blender. you will never regret dropping coin on a good blender.

Toss frozen fruit, spinach, carrots, banana, avocado or protein powder or whatever the hell you want into blender, whiz up until smooth and then pour into a to-go container (I use a quart sized mason jar with lid.) and toss it in with the rest of your food/snacks.

I also like to get a dozen eggs every week, boil them, deshell them and toss them in a big zip lock back so that I can have them with my morning smoothies. It's a healthy, high protein snack that's cheap and quick.

Beef Jerky! But that can get pricey sometimes and it has lots of salt. Some dark green vegetables maybe, but that's boring. Boiled eggs? But they smell sulferous. What about chunky peanut butter by the spoon or with some apple slices? It's full of fiber and protein I think.

Fuck off cuck, adults are talking. I've lived in the same town for 28 years and I've never seen anyone buy rice in a grocery store. It's something that you get for free with chinese takeout and everyone I know just throws it out or feeds it to the dog.

I'm in the middle of flyover territory and I fried up some rice just last night. It's a good way to use up leftover meat, just shred and mix into the rice as you fry it. An egg and some pepper is good too, or minced garlic. I'm sorry you limit yourself anon but I believe in you.

If you are working that much you want more calories...

With the stipulations you posted it is just going to be really uninspiring stuff that you will get sick of quick. if you work that much you shouldn't be prepping lunches because you can use that huge income to buy good stuff and better use your free time.

I mean shit, low calorie is relative too and so is easy to prepare. You need to explain better if you want anyone to help you.

I work in construction inspection and what I like to pack is a jar of overnight oats for the morning, a chickpea wrap for lunch, and then carrot sticks or nuts for the afternoon. For my wrap I just use two cans of chickpeas and a jar of Patak's spicy Tikka masala sauce. Makes four or five wraps.
