+2 Whole grain or whole wheat bread is almost essential. Look for at least 3 g of protein and 3 g of fiber PER SLICE (a lot of breads put there serving size as 2 slices, which makes the protein and fiber look higher)
+1 Instead of Jelly pack just a Peanut Butter Sandwich and eat with fruit (banana goes great with Peanut Butter)
+1 All natural peanut butter requires a bit of mixing sometimes because the oil separates, but it is preservative free with no trans fat...but I will admit it is not that much better nutritionally than regular homogenized peanut butter
SANDWICH
+2 Leftover meat (You want to avoid deli and pre-sliced meat as much as possible because it is full of salts and preservatives. Also, lunch meat is linked to various forms of cancer.)

+1 CHEESE is always good in moderation
Tuna
I haven't tried this yet, but you could pack a container of tuna or buy the pouches. Eat by itself, on bread, or on bread with CHEESE. Remember not to eat too much tuna because of the mercury. I would suggest no more than twice a week (5-6 ounces/week).

Hard-Boiled Eggs
I have also not tried this one, but very easy in concept. I'm not sure what else to eat with it. Maybe bread? I also eat too many eggs already, so I would prefer to keep eggs to breakfast.

SNACKS
- NUTS (any nuts...I like pistachios, almonds, and soybeans)
- YOGURT
- +1 Greek yogurt (double the protein, but roughly double the price)
- FRUIT (any fruit...I like bananas, apples, oranges, and raisins)
- VEGETABLES (any vegetable...I have only gotten into baby carrots so far)
- +1 Add Peanut Butter onto CELERY
- MILK (yes, one day I will pack a small jug of milk)
- PROTEIN/ENERGY BAR (always good to have a meal replacement if you cannot eat)
- TRISCUITS (I love my triscuits)
- +1 Pack some CHEESE to add on top
