Lunchmeat

If you have been brown bagging it, try cooking your own turkey breast. It is about $12 less a pound than deli sliced meats; most deli meats I would eat are about $14.99 per pound and up. And the meat is as clean and natural as you buy it. Buy organic grass fed if possible. It is the most tasty and the best for your health and for the planet, I digress. Meaning you do not add preservatives, sodiums, and "flavors." Simply quick brine for about an hour and roast in the oven until internal temp reaches 165. Remove and let rest under a tent of foil for about 15 minutes before slicing in. Feel free to experiment with the different spices from your kitchen.

Or if you like to pay $15.99 a pound go to the butcher counter instead and pick up some filet mignon, it is the same price so why not have it for lunch at your desk.
