Lunch should have its own thread

[blairsh]

Breaded chicken fillet and prosciutto wrapped asparagus tips.

Probe thermometer uggedts this should be getting pinker in very few slices.

The house veggie has, unfortunately, decided that she's veggie today. (Her recent comments on beef are the reason I bought it!)

So that's a lot of lunches for me and the toddler.



Edit: actually, w gravy, this is pretty fit. Basic, but fit. (Have some fantastic salads in the fridge. No, ta!)

Spuds look magnificent but the beef looks a bit overcooked to me

 

[mrs quoad]

Spuds look magnificent but the beef looks a bit overcooked to me

Yeah. Would definitely rarify it next time.

Have the additional complication that the veggie only eats well done beef, so I'm usually trying to cook it hotter than I'd like to keep her happy. 63 degrees, internal. But it's looking better done than that.

 

[fishfinger]

Ah! hadn't factored in the beef-eating veggie. Hope you enjoyed it hot and will be enjoying it in sandwiches.

 

[bubblesmcgrath]

Those roast potatoes look very good...and the beef looks lovely and lean.

'things on the table' lunch. Whatever's in the fridge that needs eating, put on the table for people to help themselves. Today was spinach falafel, pittas, hummus, cream cheese, peanut butter, salad, tortilla chips, corn cakes, olives and some jerk halloumi.

 

[polly]

Toasted sourdough with avocado, chipotle and baby kale (wow, that's a twat's lunch) and a blue raspberry Air Head. Quite badly addicted to these. They are filth.

 

[May Kasahara]

Classic school packed lunch: peanut butter sandwich, s+v crisps, a cake and an apple.

 

[ringo]

Oatcakes, some sort of Italian pastry, a big cheese and salad roll and two slices of cold pizza.

 

[iona]

Spicy beef & bean stew with spring greens. Cup of tea.

 

[Rebelda]

Falafel salad. To atone for my weekend.

 

[Biddlybee]

Beans on toast with cheese and brown sauce.

 

[Thimble Queen]

Fried egg and cheese wrap. I now have egg yoke on my clean on jeans. So clumsy atm

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Chippy chips.

 

[ringo]

Chicken escalope wrap with salad, garlic mayo and sriracha and a 99 flake ice cream

 

[Rebelda]

A handful of frozen, pre-grilled Mediterranean veg, fried up and mixed with helda, green and broad beans. Falafel, seeds, oil and vinegar.

Eta: and a slice of cherry cake, for health.

 

[polly]

Made some bread and some pesto while waiting for a dicking about client, who, happily, dicked about long enough for me to eat them in the sunshine, with a cup of tea, cat and book

 

[May Kasahara]

M&S sandwich lunch, eaten on the tube.

 

[Thimble Queen]

Ox tongue and mustard wrap with a beer

 

[iona]

Cup of tea. A very small apple. Baked cod loin, herby lemony quinoa and bulgur wheat salad, roast veg (courgette, mushrooms and yellow pepper), cherry tomatoes and torn up round lettuce. Cashew & date bar.

 

[moose]

Half a little pizza. T'other half tomorrow.

 

[Thimble Queen]

Ham, cheese, tomato and cucumber wrap and the last bits of last night sausage stew.

 

[bi0boy]

A cheese sandwich and an egg sandwich and a mango.

 

[bubblesmcgrath]

Two very small scones* with cheddar cheese and a little ballymaloe relish on top.
Mug of tea.
Not up to eating much...

* < 2" diameter ... cute

 

[mrs quoad]

Pea and cheese parcel; roast potatoes; beef and cheese focaccia.

Bit of a beige meal

 

[bi0boy]

One day I will have lunch without either cheese or egg in it.

 

[sojourner]

Lidl's finest 19p spicy prawn noodles, aka the best instant noodles in the world.

 

[iona]

Cup of tea. A very small apple. Baked cod loin, herby lemony quinoa and bulgur wheat salad, roast veg (courgette, mushrooms and yellow pepper), cherry tomatoes and torn up round lettuce. Cashew & date bar.

This again, only with the apple for pudding and the cashew crunch bar later on as a pre-gym snack.

mrs quoad (or anyone else - mrs q just seems like a good person to ask based on the meals he often posts) - I will have a good amount of cold roast beef left some time next week. I also have a load of vacuum-packed cooked beetroot. Ideas for nice lunches involving both of these things, please?

Last of the tomato soup with a cheese roll.
