Dinner has never been my Waterloo. I'm pretty good at planning, prepping and preparing some kind of dinnery meal most nights of the week. Breakfast, too, is one of my strengths, even if it is just cereal and milk. It might not be flashy but it is there. Lunch, however, is a completely different story.

Lunch just brings me down. I don't want to spend money on it. I don't have time during the day to whip up anything that requires my brain.  If I weren't starving by this time of day, I'd just skip lunch and wait for dinner to roll around. Lunch. I resent it.

Which is why Squawkfox's Top Five Frugal Lunch Ideas are a nifty find. They are easy, mostly, inexpensive and healthy. Pictured at right is one of my favorites -- a hummus wrap. Yum. I wonder if I have any chickpeas in the pantry...
