Dasha, thanks for the idea! I really liked this approach. As for the fillings, it seems that everything you want to wrap can be wrapped - some Korean carrots, and some red caviar))) fried pancakes, wrap in pita bread. If you don't like the quantity, make as much as you need. In general, whoever wanted to benefit, did. And some just make noise. I really want to try pancakes with meat fillings. In our family, the most difficult thing is that the husband does not forget to take it with him, in 9 cases out of 10 he forgets. And I can't always control.
Answer: Anna, thanks for the comment!

Irina: | October 15th, 2016 | 5:02 pm

I’ll tell you right away, Moscow, 2016. My husband never had enough money for his family. Sit down and count. It turns out to be food in the office (in cafes at bargain prices, business lunches, etc.) best case 8t.r. And up to 16 tr. reached. A nightmare! For several months I drummed into him where the money went. Now he understood. His work is traveling, often there is no refrigerator or microwave. I would even say that not often, but almost always. He travels to different objects per day, there may be 5 of them. I got out of this situation in the following way. I buy a piece of meat, pork. (not semi-finished products in a vacuum) salt and pepper and fry in a frying pan. And I give you sandwiches. 3-4 pcs. He likes meat on top and bread on the bottom. Sometimes I add boiled egg, cucumber, tomato (all washed at once), sometimes boiled young potatoes in their skins. He is not yet a fan of my trays, then they should be brought back and the dishes washed. But the main thing is to bring back. Thus, the food problem was solved. There are always sausages and sausages in the freezer, in case there is no time to fry meat. 5-10 minutes and you're done. This is the best food, your man is full, money in the family.
Answer: Irina, thank you for your experience! Very interesting and reasonable.

Natalia: | May 6th, 2016 | 9:18 am

When the traveling mode of operation is very difficult to calculate and collect ssoboyki. Either there is no refrigerator, or there is nowhere to warm up, sometimes even the husband is forced to put the tool in the mud - the work is such that even in the morning he does not know where and how he will work that day. And it happens that one is planned, then canceled. Here's how to do it? So they refused to collect fees. When in the office, there is a good canteen, and inexpensive, but as on the road, they go looking for a nutritious institution. As a last resort, village shops buy sausages with a long loaf and drink.
Answer: Natalia, yes, the nature of the work can be different. Ssoboyki - not always an option. Although in your situation, you can be advised to give food in a cooler bag and a thermos. If there is an inexpensive and good canteen at work, then this is a great option.

Olga.: | November 21st, 2015 | 12:20 pm

I constantly give my husband any homemade food with me. They have a microwave and a kettle, a shelf with dishes and a refrigerator.
So the whole team eats full-fledged food during the shift .. It's not even about saving .. I cook the way my husband needs, taking into account his individual needs.
Answer: Olga, yes individual meals- this is a definite plus :)

Me: | September 29th, 2014 | 3:52 pm

My husband didn't work anywhere. And the conditions were different. It happened that the borscht was heated in the sun, it happened that the cutlets were on the battery. However, now he has a microwave at work. And he takes with him the same thing that we eat at home. He puts it in containers, it’s not far to go to work, he puts it in the refrigerator, and when he gets hungry, he warms it in the microwave.
Answer: Yes, a great solution is to take food from home. And a good savings is obtained in the end;)

Svetlana: | June 27th, 2013 | 5:04 pm

And we had one employee who warmed up food in a glass jar on a cast-iron radiator under the window (there were no containers, lunch thermoses and microwave ovens at that time). The kitchen was far away and she adapted like that.

Tatiana: | January 31st, 2013 | 12:20 am

I also collect my husband every day. But I do exactly such blanks when I go on vacation. My husband and son only have to warm them up. They last for three weeks. For this, I even bought a large freezer.

Victoria: | December 18th, 2012 | 5:54 pm

Elena, they really have nowhere to eat (

Elena: | December 17th, 2012 | 11:56 am

For Victoria: if there is no way to warm up, just buy a thermos. There are even special thermos lunch boxes with two or three compartments where you can put several dishes. Even a bad thermos keeps warm for six hours. A good day or two.

Anonymous: | November 8th, 2012 | 12:58 am

I don't collect anything for my husband. It's just that every time I cook dinner, I calculate portions so that the whole family can eat and take him to work with me. And lay out ready meal on three plates: for yourself, for your husband, for your child and a container for your husband to take with you. The problem of separate cooking and fees is solved. Fast and convenient.

Victoria: | November 7th, 2012 | 9:16 am

The idea is very good, but here's what to do if the husband does not have a microwave at work (((And a refrigerator too, it's hard to come up with something (((

Answer: apparently, give with you only dishes that do not require heating and can be stored for some time without a refrigerator.

Marusya: | October 2nd, 2012 | 7:48 pm

Alexander. Pancakes are an OPTION for solving the problem of out-of-home dining. Do you want boiled meat after the “rocking chair”? That's wonderful! Eat with pleasure and be healthy! It's just that homemade pancakes are much better than store-bought salads from the supermarket, and even more so stupid shawarma .. Bon appetit, Alexander!

Alexander: | October 1st, 2012 | 9:02 pm

Pancakes are tin. The author, or your husband's stomach digests fried nails, or I don't know :)
However, it's not for me to judge. Here is my option:
Stew + vegetables to go for a salad.
I take the first one in the dining room. Yes, maybe not so budget, but without fried carbohydrates, which is especially important during those periods when I get to the rocking chair - there is boiled chicken breast seems very tasty meat food, and fried steak - poison :) Well, it's understandable - the liver tenses even without fried.
The bonus here is this effect: soup and a second meal in different time, i.e. there are no states of “overeating” and “hungry in the evening”.
The stock is also made for a week, with the only difference that it is not laid out in portions, as for an astronaut.

Answer: I would not compare homemade pancakes with fried nails. Believe me, pancakes taste better :)

Jane: | July 18th, 2012 | 5:32 dp

the idea is certainly not bad .... but still this is for a snack with tea, and not for the main full-fledged lunch (lunch should preferably include a first course + salad or first course + second. As you like. But pancakes are still dry food, not every stomach will benefit)

Katama: | June 28th, 2012 | 2:37 pm

I recently had a completely unexpected new incentive to provide my husband with food when he goes to work.
In their office (that is, in the editorial office), few people bring lunch with them. Not everyone has wives, some have wives far away, some just rarely cook.
So, it turns out that it is customary for them to ask each other before dinner: “Does your wife love you today?” Accordingly, whom they love, they stay and eat what they brought with them. Whom they do not like, they go to a poor dining room.
It touched me so much that now I try even harder to cook "soboyki" every day))

Answer: how nice:)

Svetlana: | June 21st, 2012 | 3:59 pm

Dasha, I'm in awe. I came across your site quite recently, but I have already adopted a lot.
Question: Do I need to remove the film after the pancakes are frozen. Or leave it like that.

Answer: Svetlana, thank you! It is better not to remove the film, it is more convenient to store it in it. I take it off just before defrosting.

Violetta: | June 15th, 2012 | 11:07 am

and I just put some of the dinner in my lunch container. I cook 2 second ones at once, and so that they are enough for 3 days each. I don’t eat pancakes, as a husband I don’t know, but I wouldn’t have enough. so I carry with me jars with the second (side dish + meat) and sometimes, if there is a salad.

Yana: | May 28th, 2012 | 8:06 dp

Dasha, this is not the first day that I have been pleasantly impressed by how well you manage your household.

I have a question about heating pancakes, do you defrost them in a special mode or just heat them in the microwave?

Answer: I have in the microwave special mode"defrost". I put it on for 10 minutes, during which time the pancakes have time not only to defrost, but also to warm up.

Tatiana: | May 21st, 2012 | 4:56 pm

Thank you so much for the inspiring ideas!!!

Dasha: | April 27th, 2012 | 5:42 dp

Hope, there were no comments in this thread yet. But if you now received mine, then everything is working. If not, please let me know. I will sort this out.

Dasha good afternoon! Please tell me why I registered on your site, but I do not receive new comments.
Thank you

Hope: | April 25th, 2012 | 12:02 pm

Dasha good afternoon! I'm just amazed. What a clever girl you are. I really also give my husband "soboyki" but not always. But your idea is "an incentive to cook." Well, this is something :)))). I'll definitely take it on board

mira: | April 20th, 2012 | 7:08 pm

Dasha please tell me how long you can store stuffed pancakes in the freezer? I'm going to bake pancakes one of these days, so that later I can quickly get it and warm it up)))

Answer: it depends on what you will stuff them with. But at a standard temperature in the refrigerator of -18 degrees, it’s definitely not less than a month.

Lu: | April 20th, 2012 | 7:08 pm

Great idea!
I have been wanting to ask for a long time from what the word 'brakes' is formed? 'Ssoboyki' is understandable))), but the brakes have been keeping me at a loss for a week now.

Answer: I heard a version that this word came from the professional vocabulary of truck drivers. The food collected for the journey was eaten during stops. Hence the etymology of the word: slow down to have lunch. Accordingly, ssoboyki - brakes.

Ludmila: | April 17th, 2012 | 12:53 pm

I'm just pleasantly surprised how great you are!!! This work has been verified!
Thank you very much!
For a long time I wanted to start compiling a menu for a week and buying products for a week, so as not to run around with a child and shopping bags - and here is your site !!! Find!

Answer: I'm glad, Lyudmila, that my experience can be useful :) For me, too, making a menu is a great relief and a way to save time and effort. Thanks for the kind words:)

Maria: | April 17th, 2012 | 6:21 am

And I'm not particularly worried about the preparation of "ssoboyek".
When preparing dinner, I count in such a way that my husband would have enough for work the next day, or I will cook a new side dish, and meat too. But at the same time, be sure to have a new dinner every night.

Answer: this is also a variant of the “soboyka”. I also make these: in a container from the leftovers of yesterday's dinner. But these residues do not always remain. That's when homemade preparations in the freezer really help out.

Lena: | April 16th, 2012 | 5:47 pm

Dasha, just an amazing idea with envelopes! The husband has long been hinting about ssoboyki. Now you gave me the idea of ​​motivation :)
Thank you very much for the site! After the session, I plan to master the menu for a week with your help :)

Answer A: I'm always happy to help!

Tati: | April 13th, 2012 | 1:22 pm

Aaaaaa, my MCH is embarrassed to eat at work ... So he spends money on cafes. In Moscow, this translates into a pretty decent amount ...

Answer: what's there to be ashamed of? On the contrary, one should be proud that he has such a caring girlfriend.

Ludmila: | April 10th, 2012 | 8:39 pm

Dashenka, I have been trying to set up a menu for a month for a long time, but so far it is difficult for me. I'll start, perhaps with a week, and it will be good. Thanks for the great site.

Answer: Lyudmila, it is best to make a menu for a week. A month is too long, you can't foresee everything. If you have any questions, please contact me, I will help you in any way I can :)

Elena: | April 9th, 2012 | 3:57 dp

Great idea! My husband and I work together, so if you don't cook lunch in the office, then lunch out of the office will be very expensive. It never occurred to me to make such a positive accent. Because as usual it was a frustration that you have to go to a cafe and spend money. Thank you

Liu: | April 8th, 2012 | 4:53 pm

And I call socials just “lunch”)
accordingly, I cook separately porridge and something meat for it. It's actually easier for us. If I don’t put lunch for my husband, he will be too lazy to go look for food and will just sit hungry)))

Maria: | April 8th, 2012 | 11:28 am

Oh, how much I fell in love with your site, there are simply no words .. Everything is very simple, accessible, no extra “water”. All to the point. You are our hard worker, thank you!

Ollie: | April 8th, 2012 | 3:12 dp

Dasha, bravo! As an ardent fan of “conversion”, I find your idea with two envelopes excellent and witty, as a lover of “gambling with money” I will take it into service, albeit in a different area (my guys simply have no other option for lunch other than selfies). By the way, your term “soboyka” has taken root with us and with my light hand went for a walk to my friends and acquaintances. So, it is quite possible that somewhere in your declining years you will proudly tell your grandchildren that you have become the author of a word included in all dictionaries. Good luck, Dashenka. And thank you very much for your work.

Answer: the word "soboyka" is not my invention, I remember it from childhood. I didn’t even expect that someone didn’t know him :) Perhaps these are features Belarusian language? I also try to turn saving from a dull occupation into a gambling game, so there are more chances that the set savings goals will be achieved. But like any Plyushkin, I always regret the money for “pampering” myself. I noticed that some purely feminine joys, like the tenth lipstick, a trip to a beauty salon, cream for the “left heel”, another scarf, etc. almost disappeared from my life. This is the way I force myself to spend money on myself too. Emotionally helps a lot :)

Natalia: | April 7th, 2012 | 6:25 pm

Dasha, please write how you prepare the chicken stuffing with sour cream. Didn't find it on your website in search...

Answer: toppings from chicken meat can be viewed here -. The amount of sour cream, salt, pepper and other seasonings (herbs or garlic) to taste.

Olga: | April 7th, 2012 | 4:26 pm

Great idea, thanks!!!

Hope: | April 7th, 2012 | 12:00 pm

oh, what a good thing, I cook your “pizzas” and pies, delicious, my husband really doesn’t like to take food with him. To be honest, I can’t speak for everyone .. in general, this question is still open with us ..

Olga: | April 7th, 2012 | 10:59 am

Eh, my husband won't get enough of this. Yes, and eat pancakes for a week :-)

Answer: the weight of one such bag is more than 600 - 650 grams. Considering that two of them are with meat, and two are sweet, this is quite enough both for quick saturation and for maintaining a feeling of satiety until the end of the working day. These are homemade pancakes, large and generous with filling :) And eating only pancakes for a week is really too much. But they don't have to be given every day. In such a case, I have in the freezer pies, and cutlets, and pizza, and cheesecakes, and a lot of other little things.

Husbands spend a lot of time at work. At home, they only have time to have breakfast and dinner late in the evening. So that the husband does not harm his health and does not spoil the stomach, in no case should he skip the lunch meal.

Every caring wife should prepare lunch for her husband in advance for work, because taking food from home is much more useful and cheaper than eating in cafes and canteens.

Since the conditions at work are different for everyone, we will consider several options for a working lunch “to go”.

What to cook for your husband when you can warm up the food?

The lucky ones who have the opportunity to heat up lunch in the microwave under working conditions can take almost any dish with them.

It is most convenient to cook dinner in the evening with the expectation that portions will remain for tomorrow's lunch at work. So cook whatever you want!

Don't forget that best lunch- it's soup. Buy plastic containers with clothespins for your husband and then the soup will definitely not spill out of there! In another container that can be heated in the microwave, put the second one. For the second, you can make mashed potatoes with sausages or meatballs, chicken fillet with pasta, etc.

What to bring to work where there is no microwave?

It also happens that there is no microwave at work. Of course, you can buy it, but not all organizations, due to the specifics of the work, allow it to be used.

If you give only sandwiches to your husband for work, he will spoil the stomach. Therefore, prepare something else besides them.

Buy, or bake yourself, pancakes with cottage cheese, meat, condensed milk, etc. Let them always lie in your freezer. Fry them in the morning, and the husband will eat them with tea in the afternoon.

Make pizza with variety different stuffing.

If cold side dishes are unpleasant to eat, then meat and fish can be cooked so that the food is tasty and cooled down. It is also necessary to give your husband a variety of hearty salads to work!

Men are tender and dependent. They are also ridiculously naive. Some husbands are sincerely convinced that they are the breadwinners of the family. Naive. Are they the breadwinners? Miners - yes. But not breadwinners. We are real nurses - tender and weak, but so caring. It is not for nothing that the wife is considered the keeper of the hearth, and the food prepared by her hands is the best food for her husband.

And while the wife at home, following the centuries-old ritual, cooks, serves (feeds, in a word), the husband feels like a king and God. But as soon as this ritual stops, the man is lost, falls into the blues and becomes the most miserable creature in the world. That is why we fly from work on all wings in order to be in time for dinner and spin around our beloved in ritual dances. The main thing is that he was full, satisfied with life and happy.

All this, of course, is good at home. And at work? We can’t please our husband at work, acting as an excellent cook and helpful waitress. And they would like that. But, alas, not all cat Shrovetide. And during working hours, men not only take a break from their wives, but also frankly suffer without homemade food. However, believe me, everything is fixable. And if your man is pathologically dependent on your kitchen, then in order to preserve his mental and physical health, you should start cooking dinners for him. So what kind of food can be the best and most convenient (both for him and for you). Let's figure it out.

Man's taste preferences

Naturally, it is on them in the first place that you will have to focus. What food does he like best? He can not do without hot? Or is your man a fan delicious sandwiches? Or maybe he loves homemade pies? Or can't imagine life without meat? In any case, you need to take into account the husband's culinary preferences.

  • Option one. First, as food for work for my husband

Don't be scared - it's not all that scary. If your man is without complexes, and his own stomach is dearer to him than public opinion, then you can safely cook first courses for your husband at work. Nobody argues that such food for a man is the best. And if the working conditions also allow you to warm the soup, then this is the most compromise option. Uncomfortable to wear (carry). Well, that's also true. But, firstly, you can purchase a special compact thermos for first courses, and secondly, you can cook mashed soups that are thicker and often tastier than ordinary soups.

  • You can't live without meat...

Does your husband not imagine his existence without a juicy chop? What a score. Yes, don't be surprised. Meat, as food for work for a husband, is a very convenient option, first of all, for you. Well, firstly, cutlets - economical, satisfying, tasty. All kinds of chops and langets - fast and prestigious. And just a piece of boiled meat will not leave your man hungry and dissatisfied.

  • I am the sausage king

Does your missus love sausage? Then making him lunch for work is a trifling matter. She cut off a piece of sausage, a slice of a fresh loaf - and here it is, food for work for her husband. True, you can diversify a sandwich with cheese and fresh vegetables, so it’s not difficult for us - it would be cute well-fed.

  • Pie happiness

If you know how and love to bake, then you are lucky, your man is doubly lucky: both his wife is beautiful and her hands are golden. Yes, and there will be no problems with preparing dinner for work for my husband: today - a meat pie, tomorrow - pies with cabbage, and the day after tomorrow - pies with fish. True, such food in the near future will make your husband look like a rich bagel. So what? Will you still love him?

Working conditions and food

Of course, tastes differ. Therefore, anything can love your beloved, and you will also cook this “anything”. However, our culinary preferences are not always appropriate in working conditions. Therefore, when choosing what kind of food you will prepare as a business lunch, clarify the situation.

Your man is office worker. If there is no decent canteen or buffet nearby, then the husband will have to carry lunch “in a briefcase”. Many advanced offices have their own "home" kitchen, or just a microwave. Then you can safely cook for him dishes that need to be eaten hot - soups, goulash, hodgepodges, and so on and so forth. As an option - do not cook on purpose, but give with you what is already cooked for lunch or left after dinner. True, there is one "but". Still, not every man is ready to give a damn about the opinions of others and have lunch right in the office, taking out vessels, jars and bags.

Therefore, if your husband is such an esthete, then limit yourself, for example, to hot sandwiches, a piece of meat casserole or hearty salad in an airtight food container. By the way, you will have to admit that this food is most suitable for your husband for a meal at lunchtime if your man does not have the opportunity to heat the food.

Your man is not an office worker. That is, the husband has to work in conditions, to put it mildly, uncomfortable. Again, if there is an opportunity to eat in the dining room (and if the food there is quite edible), then convince the man that it is best to dine there. If he insists on home-cooked meals, then it is best to get a special thermos and learn how to bake. A hot first course will surely brighten up his already difficult working days, and homemade pastries will give strength and cheer up. And do not forget that the husband should have with him not only food, but also hygiene products (paper and wet wipes for hands, a garbage bag, etc.).

That is, you have to choose from two options. Either you cook hot and tasty meals for your husband to take to work, or at least delicious food that can be eaten cold.

Hot lunches

The first thing that comes to mind is soups and borscht. Yes of course it is great option if your man prefers to eat just such dishes at work. Do not be old-fashioned and refuse in this case from glass jars with lids. Get a special thermos for hot meals or an airtight container. Invite your husband to take homemade crackers or croutons to soup instead of bread. And try to cook at least once puree soup. After all, there are a great many recipes for such soups.

And another problem with such dinners is the possibility of rapid sourness. Therefore, try to ensure that the food prepared for your husband at work is free of perishable ingredients. For example, soup without carrots. Of course, you can cook it with carrots. But put it in the broth whole, and then just take it out of the soup.

From the hot second, give preference to sausages or sausages, cutlets or chops with any side dish: mashed potatoes, beans, pasta (oh, how men love pasta!), Rice or buckwheat. You can make your husband work meat or vegetable casserole and even pasta casserole.

But, unfortunately (or fortunately), not every man will risk taking soup with him to work. Therefore, most often best food- Not liquid soups and not even mashed potatoes and porridge. Most often, a man prefers to eat at lunchtime what you can eat without a plate and without a spoon.



Food without a plate and without a spoon

What would you cook so that your husband does not bother with dishes? Naturally, sandwiches. Habitual cheese And sausage is, of course, convenient. But you won’t feed your husband daily only with such sandwiches. Therefore, as one of the options for lunch at work - sandwiches with filling. First, you can prepare a special sandwich paste, for example, liver paste. Spread two pieces of bread with this paste and put one on top of the other so that there is bread without “shaving” on top and bottom. Another option is a shawarma-type sandwich. Take a long baguette, cut off the ends from it, remove the bread crumb from them and put any filling inside (meat with vegetables, for example).

Another option for food for work for her husband is a sandwich in pita bread. Do some suitable filling(sausage, cheese and mayonnaise, chicken meat and ketchup) and wrap it in pita bread. And you can spend one evening and bake a mountain of pancakes. Then you need to prepare different fillings for pancakes: egg with rice, minced meat, cottage cheese. After that, wind the pancakes for future use and send them to the refrigerator. And you will only have to take the pancakes out of the freezer in advance (in the evening), and in the morning supply your husband with such a homemade and delicious dinner.

And, of course, pies and pies. Believe me, no normal man will refuse to have a bite to eat at lunch. homemade cakes. Moreover, pies for your husband to work can be made with completely different fillings, they can be fried or baked in the oven. True, you can’t make many pies for the future. And this is perhaps the only negative for you.

In addition to pies and pancakes, try to offer your husband to take syrniki or potato pancakes with him to work. Cook meat in batter or simply boil chicken or veal - boiled meat is delicious and cold. By the way, you can still cook in batter sea ​​fish or cauliflower, cheese, or chicken.

Salads

For some men, such food can become a full meal, for others - just an addition to the main dish. Try to make your husband work hearty salads with potatoes or meat, salads with chicken (smoked or boiled), salads with cheese, salads with ham, salads with crab sticks. It can be the well-known Olivier in any interpretation, and a herring under a fur coat, and "mimosa".

As an addition and in order to diversify the dry food, cook vegetable salads for your husband at work: from cabbage, from beets, from carrots. Cook them with mayonnaise vegetable oil, with mustard, but only without onions and garlic. And in general, try not to put strong-smelling foods in salads, because you don’t want your missus to be afraid to open his mouth for the rest of the working day.

As a variant of salads - roll or envelopes from pita bread stuffed with lettuce. Very convenient food, so that you can take it with you and eat: salad right away and with bread. And the complexity of cooking is an excuse for the lazy. If all the ingredients for salads are prepared in advance (boiled and cut) and kept in the refrigerator in separate bowls, then the next morning all that remains is to mix and season the salad.

I’ll tell you right away, Moscow, 2016. My husband never had enough money for his family. Sit down and count. It turns out that for food in the office (in a cafe at "bargain" prices, business lunches, etc., the family leaves at best 8 tr. And it even reached 16 tr. It's a nightmare! money. Now he understood himself. His work is traveling, often there is no refrigerator or microwave. I would even say that not often, but almost always. He travels to different objects in a day, there can be 5 of them. I got out of this situation as follows. I buy a piece of meat, pork. (not semi-finished products in a vacuum) salt and pepper and on a frying pan, fry. And I give sandwiches. 3-4 pieces. He likes meat on top and bottom of bread. Sometimes I add a boiled egg, cucumber, tomato ( washed all at once), sometimes boiled young potatoes in their uniforms. He is not yet a fan of my trays, then they should be brought back and the dishes washed. But the main thing is to bring them back. Thus, the problem with food was solved. There are always sausages and sausages, for when there is no time to fry the meat.5-10 minutes and everything is ready.This is the best food, your man is full, money in the family.
Answer: Irina, thank you for your experience! Very interesting and reasonable.

Natalia: | May 6th, 2016 | 9:18 am

When the traveling mode of operation is very difficult to calculate and collect ssoboyki. Either there is no refrigerator, or there is nowhere to warm up, sometimes even the husband is forced to put the tool in the mud - the work is such that even in the morning he does not know where and how he will work that day. And it happens that one is planned, then canceled. Here's how to do it? So they refused to collect fees. When in the office, there is a good canteen, and inexpensive, but as on the road, they go looking for a nutritious institution. As a last resort, village shops buy sausages with a long loaf and drink.
Answer: Natalia, yes, the nature of the work can be different. Ssoboyki - not always an option. Although in your situation, you can be advised to give food in a cooler bag and a thermos. If there is an inexpensive and good canteen at work, then this is a great option.

Olga.: | November 21st, 2015 | 12:20 pm

I constantly give my husband any homemade food with me. They have a microwave and a kettle, a shelf with dishes and a refrigerator.
So the whole team eats full-fledged food during the shift .. It's not even about saving .. I cook the way my husband needs, taking into account his individual needs.
Answer: Olga, yes, individual nutrition is a definite plus :)

Me: | September 29th, 2014 | 3:52 pm

My husband didn't work anywhere. And the conditions were different. It happened that the borscht was heated in the sun, it happened that the cutlets were on the battery. However, now he has a microwave at work. And he takes with him the same thing that we eat at home. He puts it in containers, it’s not far to go to work, he puts it in the refrigerator, and when he gets hungry, he warms it in the microwave.
Answer: Yes, a great solution is to take food from home. And a good savings is obtained in the end;)

Svetlana: | June 27th, 2013 | 5:04 pm

And we had one employee who warmed up food in a glass jar on a cast-iron radiator under the window (there were no containers, lunch thermoses and microwave ovens at that time). The kitchen was far away and she adapted like that.

Tatiana: | January 31st, 2013 | 12:20 am

I also collect my husband every day. But I do exactly such blanks when I go on vacation. My husband and son only have to warm them up. They last for three weeks. For this, I even bought a large freezer.

Victoria: | December 18th, 2012 | 5:54 pm

Elena, they really have nowhere to eat (

Elena: | December 17th, 2012 | 11:56 am

For Victoria: if there is no way to warm up, just buy a thermos. There are even special thermos lunch boxes with two or three compartments where you can put several dishes. Even a bad thermos keeps warm for six hours. A good day or two.

Anonymous: | November 8th, 2012 | 12:58 am

I don't collect anything for my husband. It's just that every time I cook dinner, I calculate portions so that the whole family can eat and take him to work with me. And I lay out the finished dish on three plates: for myself, for my husband, for my child, and a container for my husband to take with me. The problem of separate cooking and fees is solved. Fast and convenient.

Victoria: | November 7th, 2012 | 9:16 am

The idea is very good, but here's what to do if the husband does not have a microwave at work (((And a refrigerator too, it's hard to come up with something (((

Answer: apparently, give with you only dishes that do not require heating and can be stored for some time without a refrigerator.

Marusya: | October 2nd, 2012 | 7:48 pm

Alexander. Pancakes are an OPTIONAL solution to the out-of-home dining problem. Do you want boiled meat after the “rocking chair”? That's wonderful! Eat with pleasure and be healthy! It's just that homemade pancakes are much better than store-bought salads from the supermarket, and even more so stupid shawarma .. Bon appetit, Alexander!

Alexander: | October 1st, 2012 | 9:02 pm

Pancakes are tin. The author, or your husband's stomach digests fried nails, or I don't know :)
However, it's not for me to judge. Here is my option:
Stew + vegetables to go for a salad.
I take the first one in the dining room. Yes, maybe not so budget, but without fried carbohydrates, which is especially important in those periods when I get to the rocking chair - there boiled chicken breast seems to be very tasty meat food, and fried steak is poison :) Well, it’s understandable - liver without fried tenses.
There is such an effect here as a bonus: I eat soup and the second at different times, i.e. there are no states of "overeating" and "hungry in the evening."
The stock is also made for a week, with the only difference that it is not laid out in portions, as for an astronaut.

Answer: I would not compare homemade pancakes with fried nails. Believe me, pancakes taste better :)

Jane: | July 18th, 2012 | 5:32 dp

the idea is certainly not bad .... but still this is for a snack with tea, and not for the main full-fledged lunch (lunch should preferably include a first course + salad or first course + second. As you like. But pancakes are still dry food, not every stomach will benefit)

Katama: | June 28th, 2012 | 2:37 pm

I recently had a completely unexpected new incentive to provide my husband with food when he goes to work.

So, it turns out that it is customary for them to ask each other before dinner: “Does your wife love you today?” Accordingly, those who are loved - stay and eat what they brought with them. Whom they do not like - they go to a poor dining room.
It touched me so much that now I try even harder to cook “soboyki” every day))

Answer: how nice:)

Svetlana: | June 21st, 2012 | 3:59 pm

Dasha, I'm in awe. I came across your site quite recently, but I have already adopted a lot.
Question: Do I need to remove the film after the pancakes are frozen. Or leave it like that.

Answer: Svetlana, thank you! It is better not to remove the film, it is more convenient to store it in it. I take it off just before defrosting.

Violetta: | June 15th, 2012 | 11:07 am

and I just put some of the dinner in my lunch container. I cook 2 second ones at once, and so that they are enough for 3 days each. I don’t eat pancakes, as a husband I don’t know, but I wouldn’t have enough. so I carry with me jars with the second (side dish + meat) and sometimes, if there is a salad.

Yana: | May 28th, 2012 | 8:06 dp

Dasha, this is not the first day that I have been pleasantly impressed by how well you manage your household.

I have a question about heating pancakes, do you defrost them in a special mode or just heat them in the microwave?

Answer: I have a special “defrost” mode in the microwave. I put it on for 10 minutes, during which time the pancakes have time not only to defrost, but also to warm up.

Tatiana: | May 21st, 2012 | 4:56 pm

Dasha, please tell me, how long can stuffed pancakes be stored in the freezer? I'm going to bake pancakes one of these days, so that later I can quickly get it and warm it up)))

Answer: it depends on what you will stuff them with. But at a standard temperature in the refrigerator of -18 degrees, it’s definitely not less than a month.

Great idea!
I have been wanting to ask for a long time from what the word 'brakes' is formed? 'Ssoboyki' is understandable))), but the brakes have been keeping me at a loss for a week now.

Answer: I heard a version that this word came from the professional vocabulary of truck drivers. The food collected for the journey was eaten during stops. Hence the etymology of the word: slow down to have lunch. Accordingly, ssoboyki - brakes.

I'm just pleasantly surprised how great you are!!! This work has been verified!
Thank you very much!
For so long I wanted to start compiling a menu for a week and buying products for a week, so as not to run around with a child and shopping bags - and here is your site !!! Find!

Answer: I'm glad, Lyudmila, that my experience can be useful :) For me, too, making a menu is a great relief and a way to save time and effort. Thanks for the kind words:)

And I'm not particularly worried about the preparation of "ssoboyek".
When preparing dinner, I count in such a way that my husband would have enough for work the next day, or I will cook a new side dish, and meat too. But at the same time, be sure to have a new dinner every night.

Answer: this is also a variant of the "soboyka". I also make these: in a container from the leftovers of yesterday's dinner. But these residues do not always remain. That's when homemade preparations in the freezer really help out.

Dasha, just an amazing idea with envelopes! The husband has long been hinting about ssoboyki. Now you gave me the idea of ​​motivation :)
Thank you very much for the site! After the session, I plan to master the menu for a week with your help :)

Answer A: I'm always happy to help!

Aaaaaa, my MCH is embarrassed to eat at work ... So he spends money on cafes. In Moscow, this translates into a pretty decent amount ...

Answer: what's there to be ashamed of? On the contrary, one should be proud that he has such a caring girlfriend.

Dashenka, I have been trying to set up a menu for a month for a long time, but so far it is difficult for me. I'll start, perhaps with a week, and it will be good. Thanks for the great site.

Answer: Lyudmila, it is best to make a menu for a week. A month is too long, you can't foresee everything. If you have any questions, please contact me, I will help in any way I can :)

I join in the thanks for the word "ssoboyka"!

Great idea! My husband and I work together, so if you don't cook lunch in the office, then lunch out of the office will be very expensive. It never occurred to me to make such a positive accent. Because as usual it was a frustration that you have to go to a cafe and spend money. Thank you

Liu: | April 8th, 2012 | 4:53 pm

And I just call socials "lunch")
accordingly, I cook separately porridge and something meat for it. It's actually easier for us. If I don’t put lunch for my husband, he will be too lazy to go look for food and will just sit hungry)))

Maria: | April 8th, 2012 | 11:28 am

Oh, how much I fell in love with your site, there are simply no words .. Everything is very simple, accessible, no extra “water”. All to the point. You are our hard worker, thank you!

Ollie: | April 8th, 2012 | 3:12 dp

Dasha, bravo! As an ardent fan of "conversion" I find your idea with two envelopes excellent and witty, as a lover of "gambling with money" I will take it into service, albeit in a different area (my guys simply have no lunch option other than selfies). By the way, your term “soboyka” has taken root with us very much and, with my light hand, went for a walk around my friends and acquaintances. So, it is quite possible that somewhere in your declining years you will proudly tell your grandchildren that you have become the author of a word included in all dictionaries. Good luck, Dashenka. And thank you very much for your work.

Answer: the word "soboyka" is not my invention, I remember it from childhood. I didn’t even expect that someone didn’t know him :) Perhaps these are features of the Belarusian language? I also try to turn saving from a dull occupation into a gambling game, so there are more chances that the set savings goals will be achieved. But like any Plyushkin, I always regret the money for "pampering" myself. I noticed that some purely feminine joys, like the tenth lipstick, a trip to a beauty salon, cream for the “left heel”, another scarf, etc. almost disappeared from my life. This is the way I force myself to spend money on myself too. Emotionally helps a lot :)

Dasha, please write how you prepare the chicken stuffing with sour cream. Didn't find it on your website in search...

Answer: options for chicken meat fillings can be viewed here -. The amount of sour cream, salt, pepper and other seasonings (herbs or garlic) to taste.

Olga: | April 7th, 2012 | 4:26 pm

Great idea, thanks!!!

Hope: | April 7th, 2012 | 12:00 pm

oh, what a good thing, I cook your “pizzas” and pies, delicious, my husband really doesn’t like to take food with him. To be honest, I can’t speak for everyone .. in general, this question is still open with us ..

Olga: | April 7th, 2012 | 10:59 am

Eh, my husband won't get enough of this. Yes, and eat pancakes for a week :-)

Answer: the weight of one such bag is more than 600 - 650 grams. Considering that two of them are with meat, and two are sweet, this is quite enough both for quick saturation and for maintaining a feeling of satiety until the end of the working day. These are homemade pancakes, large and generous with filling :) And eating only pancakes for a week is really too much. But they don't have to be given every day. In such a case, I have in the freezer pies, and cutlets, and pizza, and cheesecakes, and a lot of other little things.

Husbands spend most of the day at work. At home, they have breakfast in the morning, and dinner only late in the evening. If you regularly skip lunch meals, you can seriously harm your health. That is why caring wives think what to cook for their husband at work for lunch every day.

An alternative could be food in a canteen or cafe, but homemade food much more useful and cost effective. Everyone has different working conditions, so we decided to consider all the options in order to choose the best option for what to cook for my husband at work (recipes in detail).

What to take to work if you can warm it up

If your husband has a microwave at work, you can cook almost anything for him. It can be a variety of soups, borscht, garnish with meat, meatballs, etc. Containers are now sold with special clips that hermetically close the dishes and prevent the liquid from spilling out.

The only disadvantage of such dinners is the rapid souring. Try to use only fresh, non-perishable foods as ingredients. If you are cooking soup, then cook it without carrots. Just put it whole, and at the end remove it from the soup.

For the second, cook sausages, chops, sausages, cutlets. Put a side dish on them. It can be cereals, pasta, beans and potatoes.

What to eat without a microwave

Some working conditions are such that it is not possible to heat food. Eating sandwiches alone can greatly spoil your stomach, but if you diversify your diet with homemade pancakes with meat, cottage cheese, jam or condensed milk, you can have a good lunch. Fry the pancakes and freeze with the filling in the refrigerator. In the morning, you only need to warm them up until a golden crust forms. You can bake pizza with mushroom, cheese, meat filling yourself.

Prepare a liver pate or other sandwich spread to take with you in a jar and spread on bread just before dinner.

Lavash sandwiches

As a change, prepare a pita sandwich. For the filling, use whatever your husband likes. Put chicken or beef meat with mayonnaise, chopped cucumbers and tomatoes. Add lettuce and ketchup. For fish lovers, cook pita bread with pink salmon fillet or other fish and add to them processed cheese. This is a very tasty and satisfying dish.

In general, pita bread can serve as the basis for any salad. Just wrap whatever your husband likes in it. This also applies to ordinary vegetable cuts. Grate the beets, prepare a salad of apples with carrots and cabbage or cucumbers and tomatoes. Only here, most likely, garlic and onions will have to be removed from these recipes. Your spouse will have to communicate with people all day and it is better if he feels comfortable.

Hearty salads for lunch

Some men cannot imagine lunch without various salads with meat, cheese, smoked or boiled chicken. Crab sticks, ham, peas also make the salad very satisfying.

What to take to work depending on taste preferences

A woman should know if her man can do without the first side dish. Maybe he's a fan hearty sandwiches or meat in pure form. Let's analyze each case separately.

Dedicated to lovers of soups and borsch

What to do if your man cannot imagine life without the first? Feel free to cook these dishes! Food can be poured into a container or a special thermos with a wide mouth. If warming up dinner is not a problem, a wide horizon of action is open to you. If there is no stove or microwave, you can cook mashed soups. They are thicker and often much tastier than regular soups.

meat every day

lovers meat products much easier to live. Meat as a lunch for work is a simple and convenient option for a companion. Prepare cutlets and freeze them in freezer. Take out as needed and fry. Make sandwiches with chops and langets. Even just a boiled piece of meat will satisfy your hunger quickly and for a long time. Instead of meat, you can use sausage, diversifying it with cheese, vegetables.

Pies and pies

Baking is the most the best option for those who have to be at work all day. Meat-eaters will like it, and those who prefer vegetables will devour it. Just prepare the filling that your husband likes: meat, fish, nuts, cabbage, potatoes, etc.

If you want your man to become dependent on your kitchen, do not be lazy and think carefully about what you can cook for your husband at work. To do this, you should find out his preferences and take into account tastes.
