Dh likes pudding and yogurt for snacks. I also bake muffins and cookies that we can freeze and he can take out and take with him. Fruit salad is good as well.
I try to send fruit, yogurt, nuts, muffins, anything that might give him a little variety, but it always comes back to sandwich and cookies. That is all he will eat. It's annoying, but he complains that he is tired of eating the same old things, but he will not suggest new things, and he will not eat what I put in there that is different.
Currently, DH eats a bowl of strawberries for snack. Later in summer he will take watermelon or blueberries. During winter, he gets homemade canned peaches. For lunch, he eats soup every day. I vary the type of soup that I make him. Sometimes he wants a roll and sometimes he doesn't. It just depends upon the type of soup. At his desk he keeps peanuts and cashews as well.
DH drives trucks and does dispatching so his days are very long. I pack his breakfast and lunch and snacks. He is home usually for dinner every night. For lunch, I usually do sandwiches every other day and in between I do either wraps (variety of them) or something to heat up if he is in the office or soup heated really hot and then put in a thermos that keeps warm. For snacks I pack about 4 different things consisting of either chips, trail mix, granola bars, pudding, fruit (usually 2-3pcs) crackers or cookies.
For breakfasts: I pack him coffee with one of the following: muffins, peanut butter and jelly sandwich, danish or breakfast burrito.

He usually only has time for snacks so I pack baby carrots, celery w/peanut butter, fruit snacks, granola bars, apples, oranges (I peel them), yogurt, nuts, trail mix.
He normally takes 2 yougart (the 35 calorie ones) either veggies and dip or fruit, trail mix, granola bar, or pudding. He normally has the 2 yougart, fruit or veggie and then one or two ``snacks`` every once in a while if the single serve chips are on sale, I pick those up and also send chips and salsa as a snack too
He usually always has leftovers. But if we don't have enough left over he will have a wrap with hummus or maybe spinach and goat cheese depending on what we have. Or maybe a salad.
For snack he likes fruit, a little trail mix I make him, homemade cookes if I made some, cheese, crackers, etc... Needless to say not all at once, I just put one or two things for snacks in the lunch box
cheez it crackers, goldfish, granola bars, I have even bought little bags of pepperoni (DH loves pepperoni) and sometimes when im in the mood to bake he goes to work with brownies or cookies in his lunch pail.
