Some workdays move so fast that lunch becomes an afterthought. Between early meetings, urgent emails, and trying to stay on top of everything, it’s easy to forget to have a proper break, let alone pack a meal or baon (as we call it).
But skipping lunch? A big no-no. It leaves you running on empty when your focus and energy are needed the most. That’s why grabbing something convenient, satisfying, and ready-to-eat—like a good sandwich—can make all the difference. No prep, no hassle, just a small pause in your day that helps you reset and refuel.
From protein-packed bites to cheesy comfort food and veggie-loaded power-ups, here’s a roundup of office-ready sandwiches that will help keep you going for the rest of the day.
The Mood Lifter: Comforting Cheesy Sandwiches
When the work day feels gray, and you're running on low battery, reach for something that feels like a warm hug—cheesy sandwiches.

Try this:
- Mortadella Burrata Sandwich: Thinly sliced Italian mortadella, creamy burrata, crisp lettuce, and a spread of green pesto layered into one rich, flavor-packed bite. This one’s indulgent, rich, and a worthy no-fuss meal.
- Cheesesteak Sandwich: Loaded with tender sliced beef and melty cheese sauce in signature hoagie roll. Hearty, meaty, and melty, it’s the kind of sandwich that lifts your spirit and gives you the “you got this” feeling.
The Brain Booster: Plant-Powered and Meatless Sandwiches
Need to focus? Whether you're deep in a creative presentation or just trying to get through spreadsheets, plant-based and meatless sandwiches can fuel your brain without slowing you down.

Try this:
- Grilled Vegetable Sandwich: Toasted ciabatta filled with smoky grilled zucchini, eggplant, capsicum, and banana for a surprising note of sweetness. Layered with a bold red sauce, crisp lettuce, and vibrant green pesto, it’s a nutrient-rich fuel that keeps your brain sharp on a busy day.
- Egg Sando: Creamy egg salad with fresh cucumber slices. It’s light, clean, and full of protein. This sandwich is refreshingly simple, but it’s a superfood that boosts your brain and keeps it on track.
The Power Grab: Protein-Packed Sandwiches
For those who eat a light breakfast, need a filling lunch, or just want something hearty to power through deadlines, these protein-loaded sandwiches are the right easy meal for you.

Try this:
- Roast Beef Sandwich: Tender roast beef layered with crisp lettuce, caramelized onion, tangy mustard, and creamy mayonnaise. It's bold, energizing, and sure to satisfy when you're deep in the zone or whenever you're ready to lean in and power through.
- Tuna Dill Sandwich: Creamy tuna salad made with dill mayonnaise, fresh tomato slices, and crisp lettuce. It's lighter, brighter, full of flavor, and brings the protein you need to stay sharp and satisfied for the rest of the day.
For other protein picks, you can’t go wrong with a Grilled Chicken Sandwich—a smoky classic that delivers tender, juicy texture. Or go bolder with another protein-rich meal, like the Grilled Chorizo Sandwich, featuring a savory chorizo patty in cool ranch, fresh tomatoes, lettuce, and herbed cream cheese spread. Both are perfect for when you want something hearty and energizing.
