Need ideas on what to serve for lunch

[flex]

A few of my aunts and cousins and I have begun a monthly lunch GTG.  They are coming over for lunch at my house next week.   Since I'm hosting I will be providing the lunch entree'.   I've already made my "famous" chicken curry soup for a previous GTG, so any suggestions on something simple ("simple" being the key word) and comfort food-ish?

I'm planning to make this noodle-chicken-veggie salad for my lunches next week- looks easy, and something that can be made ahead and served room temp is always good for a group.

Fabulous suggestion!  Thank you so much.

Quiche. Quiche Lorraine is always a safe bet, but I also really like this one (I have made it with butternut squash instead of sweet potato, it is excellent!): tastykitchen.com/recipes/special-dietary-needs/vegetarian/roasted-sweet-potato-caramelized-onion-and-gorgonzola-quiche/

I add chicken breast and dried cranberries to this Roquefort Pear salad to make it a meal: allrecipes.com/recipe/34613/roquefort-pear-salad/

Baked ham and cheese sandwiches are always a hit: allrecipes.com/recipe/216756/baked-ham-and-cheese-party-sandwiches/

Those are all good suggestions--thank you!

And I found this one too:  allrecipes.com/video/7504/bbq-chicken-chopped-salad/

my first thought was salad and frittata (similar to the quiche recommendation)

I love soup and grilled sandwiches - make a take on tomato soup with grilled cheese - but do a creamy roasted tomato and make the sandwiches with brie, fig spread, sliced green apples and arugula

This will be the best way to use up brie from NYE! Yum!

ETA- a soup and salad are always yummy! With some crusty ( ) buttered bread!
Tortellini soup is always scrumptious!

I may make those sandwiches for our GTG in February!
