Crossword Genius

Pack lunch or deliver sandwiches (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

horde

'pack' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'lunch or deliver sandwiches' is the wordplay.
'sandwiches' says the answer is hidden in the clue (the solution is sandwiched in by the clue).
'HORDE' is hidden in the letters of 'lunch or deliver'.

(Other definitions for horde that I've seen before include "A swarm or multitude" , "Large force" , "Nomadic army" , "Host" , "Many people" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
