Lunch should have its own thread

Cold new potatoes & green beans, avocado, cherry tomatoes, boiled egg, feta, pesto and mixed salad leaves.

This again but tuna instead of feta. Cup of tea and a cherry layered yoghurt after.

 

[miss direct]

Salad including quinoa, tuna, iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, black olives, white cheese and cucumber. With a lime and balsamic vinegar dressing. It's actually yummy.

 

[polly]

Spicy tomato soup with sourdough toast and butter. Norwegian chocolate brought by relatives that has broken up bits of salty wafer in it and is unbelievably good. I don't think you can get it here

 

[ringo]

Waitrose sushi and Bento box

 

[fishfinger]

Went to the local cafe for brunch. Had a massive lasagne, chips, and salad. Very tasty. Very full.

 

[sojourner]

Cheese an unyun butty with cheese and unyun crisps and a strong coffee to keep me from falling asleep!

 

[May Kasahara]

A hastily assembled couscous salad with red pepper, carrot, sprouted pulses, parsley, chives, mint, feta, beetroot, avocado and a citrus/harissa dressing.

 

[miss direct]

The rest of the quinoa salad, with a hard boiled egg, falafel and salsa.

I had sojourner's fave spicy prawn flavour noodles. I really fancied something else but felt I'd left her waiting far too long already. So here is my verdict...................: they are ok

 

[Thimble Queen]

Middle eastern bread topped with sriracha, garlic paste, cheese, mushrooms and gherkins and toasted under the grill

 

[Siouxsie]

Tuna and sweet corn baked potato, tomato and cucumber salad. Chelsea bun. Cup of tea.

 

[Biddlybee]

Wild garlic pesto (what I made), penne, green beans and spinach. Orange and two digestives for pud.

OKAY?? They're fucking the best noodles in the world!

I'm sorry

 

[Rebelda]

I had a boring salad at my boring desk and no afters

 

[iona]

Spinach, freekeh, mung & adzuki bean, feta, tomato, avocado, red onion and cucumber salad with fresh basil, lemon juice and black pepper. Cup of tea.

E2a and a boiled egg

 

[Cheesypoof]

Was out and about - enjoyed a crepe called 'the Fleet Street' which had bacon, cheese and chunky tomato, and a green salad. Also flat white, which was a strong frothy coffee with hot milk (no sugar).

 

[ringo]

Sausage sandwich with ketchup and sriracha.

 

[polly]

A lunch that I have often that I am naming Total Sexlunch: sourdough bread or toast depending on freshness, with feta, mint, chilli and olive oil mixed together into a paste, something green on top (today, rocket. Often lettuce or grated courgette). Mr polly is also wfh today so I've had to mix in some cream cheese and lemon to bulk it out.

Pacoquinha for pudding. It's a Brazilian sweet made from ground peanuts, cassava and sugar.

 

[Biddlybee]

mmmm, I still remember those

I'm yet to try your sexlunch, lack of sourdough

I reckon any nice bread would do! It's just that in this house it's white sliced or sourdough, and it would be all wrong on Sunblest. (Not being snobby about Sunblest. Just that it's inappropriate)

 

[sojourner]

I'm sorry

Anyways, I had a Co op special discounted lunch today. I got 6 sausage rolls for 50p and a tub of fancy hummus for 25p. Turns out eating 3 saussie rolls dipped in hummus DOES give you heartburn even though it's really lovely and filling at the time.

 

[miss direct]

I was working in a school today so ate there. Lentil soup and then veg with Bulgar. Was yummy for a school lunch.

 

[Cheesypoof]

Nutroast with coleslaw, potato salad and couscous with pistachio and mint salad.

 

[polly]

Zesty Bean Quinoa from Iceland (this is The Shit. Bag of frozen kidney beans, sunflower seeds, french beans, red peppers, peas, sweetcorn and edamame, plus very small amount of quinoa, which you stir fry into life) with added wild garlic kimchi, tiny bit of rice vinegar and half an avocado.

 

[May Kasahara]

Pasta salad with black olives, red pepper, cucumber, cold roast chicken and loads of chilli pesto.

 

[sojourner]

Ham and mustard butties with cherry toms and a massive spring onion.

 

[sojourner]

Picked up 6 slices of chipotle-smoked ham in the shops yesterday for 58p! So ham butties again, with a good slather of English mustard, cherry toms, and another vast spring onion. Have blueberries and a dinky yoghurt drink too.
