Jen,
When I read your post the first thing I thought of was a nice salad with
grains and beans... and then I saw this yummy-looking salad recipe posted
later in the digest. I'd recommend something like this -- maybe bring along
some fruit or a crusty bread to go with it. The other things I thought of was
hummus and tabouleh -- neither would be hurt, I don't think, by being at
room temperature for a day provided it wasn't too hot. Good luck!
