You can pick and choose what you want to buy but here’s a list of ideas:
Fruits: bananas, apples, oranges, cantaloupe, winter melon, watermelon, grapes, strawberries, etc
Veggies: artichoke, asparagus, basil, beans, bell peppers, broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, celery, cucumbers, eggplants, garlic, onion, peas, potatoes, pumpkin, squash, sweet potato, spinach, tomatoes
Fish: you can pick and choose what kind of fish works for you, but be careful of the mercury content; we (my dad and I) eat a lot of salmon and other fish from the Asian markets.
Grains: oatmeal/oats, quinoa, brown rice, barley
Nuts: almonds, cashews, walnuts, peanuts, pistachios, hazelnuts, pecans, brazelnuts

What I eat: five cereals - red beans, green beans, black beans, white beans, soybeans, pumpkin mixed together; and occasionally I eat what I suggested above when I’m not at home
Sandwiches:
What you choose to put in your sandwich is up to you, but here’s an example of what you could put: eggs, tomatoes, spinach, bell peppers, and maybe some grilled chicken pieces
Salads:
add some olives, cucumbers, pumpkin, peas, artichoke, chicken, etc. and add olive oil and vinegar; put anything you want in your salad
Wraps:
Brown rice orquinoa, vegetables, and maybe your choice of meat
Home cooked meals:
Pack your lunch the day before so you’re not feeling rushed when you get up in the morning and you’re less likely to buy lunch/eat out.
