Is there anything wrong with a sandwich or a wrap? Don't stress yourself over the menu at this point. Keep it simple but varied and healthy. Slowcookers are fantastic! I put my stuff in the night before and let it cook overnight so it's ready for lunch. One thing I do here that's been helpful is to make stuff that freezes well and portion it out for daycare. Spaghetti Sauce, vegan chili, cauliflower/blue cheese soup with quinoa are a few that I do that come out of the freezer tasting normal and with a good consistancy.

What about easy, throw together meals? My kids love a lunch of a muffin (or cheese and crackers), fruit, yogourt. Mushroom quinoa is super easy and fast to make. A Ploughman's Lunch sounds cool, but super easy. It's a UK thing that I've adopted. Bread roll, boiled egg, cheese, tomato, maybe a cold meat, jarred pickle (British relish kind of stuff). Make muffins up ahead of time and throw them in the freezer. I put cooked Quinoa in them for a bit more nutritional value. French toast is fast, with some sliced fruit and a dollop of yogourt. Brown beans with some toast and tomato goes over big here. Hummus with pita bread and some fruit or veg.

Everything above is fast, easy and some of it is easily frozen. I often, when cooking something, make a lot, and divide into portions for easy meal prep - just don't forget to take it out of the freezer Don't be so hard on yourself. You're brand new, you've only got one child and probably have bigger fish to fry than the menu at the moment. My menu is somewhat elaborate, but none of the foods are difficult or complicated...they just sound fancy. BUT, I've also been doing this for a heck of a long time. You'll figure out what your menu will look like in good time. Find the meals that work for you and mix & match.
