Lunch should have its own thread

[May Kasahara]

We went for a pub roast, it was spectacular. I had fig and roquefort nut roast with a yorkshire, roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese, peas, cabbage, parsnips, red cabbage and onion gravy. MMMMMMMM.

Shouldn't have had the mini brownie afterwards, it was a step too far really and now I feel a bit sick.

 

[Siouxsie]

Roast pork, crackling, roast potatoes, roast parsnips, mash, apple sauce, stuffing, carrots, green beans, gravy.
Apple crumble smothered in custard.

I made a veggie stew yesterday using up all the wilty stuff in the fridge and it is fucking fit. Baby corn, onions, garlic, broccoli, red and yellow peppers, ancient aubergine, fresh parsley, tin of kidney beans, pinch of chilli, a good shake of smoked paprika, tin of toms and some veg stock. Fucking well nice, and made enough for 4 big lunches.

 

[sojourner]

More of the veggie stew, with a bit of bread and butter today

 

[Looby]

My lunch was gorgeous. A huge plate of fried mushrooms with thick crusty white toast and butter. [emoji4]

 

[polly]

Rice with szechuan chili bean sauce. Was too busy to arse around making proper lunch

 

[ringo]

Found a tenner in the street on the way to the sandwich shop. Salmon and cream cheese toasted panini AND crisps. Living the high life

 

[Nine Bob Note]

Kraft Mac & Cheese made with additional cream cheese. Oh, it was so good...

 

[iona]

Veg daal with a chopped up runny boiled egg mixed in, plain wrap after to mop up the last of the sauce. Dried mango.

Latte and a banoffee muffin when I got to volunteering. Aldi bakery muffins are usually good but this one was all cake and barely any filling

 

[DaveCinzano]

Hash is the sole but sufficient vindication for the existence of corned beef.

Not a fan of corned beef & tomato sandwich, or corned beef fritters, then?

 

[Siouxsie]

I had cheese on toast with a splash of Lea & Perrins on it. Manchester tart, and I don't mean farmerbarleymow
Cup of tea.

 

[Siouxsie]

Spinach salad with egg mayonnaise. Strawberry jam and cream scone. Cup of tea.

 

[Hellsbells]

Quite a tasty lunch. Left over rice and veg from last night with some added salad and chorizo.
Totally famished now though as it was quite a small portion and I ate it at 12 before my driving lesson.

 

[kalidarkone]

This is brunch- An Ostrich and Dijon mustard with mayo sandwich on rye and a mango & raspberry smoothie made with macca, chia seeds, coconut water and Greek yogurt.

 

[harpo]

Mussels in tomato and garlic sauce, rocket and parmesan salad, bread, wine.

My Ukrainian MIL made us an amazing traditional lunch yesterday: fried courgette with a garlicky yogurt sauce, some mega garlicky aubergine and tomato stew, roasted peppers and onions, mashed potato and a porky thing for the omnivores. Sweet pancakes with cottage cheese and sultanas for pudding. (I love this woman. How she survives living with my dour, self loathing, turbo homophobic FIL I will never know.)

 

[Siouxsie]

Day at my mum's, still feel like I could pop!
Roast beef, Yorkshire pudding, proper square roasting tin one not the bought round things, horseradish sauce, roasters, mash, sprouts, red cabbage, cauliflower, carrots, bread sauce.
Lemon pudding and cream for afters.

 

[Thimble Queen]

Posh pot noodle type thing, a banana that had gone a bit black from being bashed about it my bag and couple of rice cakes. Someone's baked some chocolate and almond muffins so I might have one of those in a bit

 

[iona]

Two cups of tea. Avocado on toast (rye with sunflower seeds), three spinach & mushroom egg muffins, lettuce, cucumber, mixed peppers, pickled beetroot. A pear and a kiwi fruit.

 

[Rebelda]

Taco salad bowl. I had one yesterday when I burnt the wrap I was warming in a dry pan by accident, so filled it with beetroot salad, cold chicken, coriander, fennel seeds and hot sauce.

It was delicious you can tear bits off as you go and eat the soggy bottom when you're done

Today I did it on purpose, but with falafel and lime pickle instead of the chicken and hot sauce.

I'm sure it's already a thing, but I'm pleased with it

 

[Thimble Queen]

I had a big salad of leaf, sweetcorn, kidney beans, peppers, cucumber and grated carrot with a boiled egg. Dressing was just a bit of oil, vinegar, salt and lots of black pepper.

 

[polly]

Heinz tomato soup with cheese on top.

Heinz tomato soup with cheese on top.

My husband's family do this
Tried it once but didn't like it.
The boy loves it though so the family tradition will carry on.

But it goes all melty and you get molten cheese mixed in with your soup! I had never considered that anyone might not like this

Today the old favourite of zesty bean quinoa with avocado, sazon, parsley and lemon juice.

No.

But it was definitely worth clarifying the point, even if it meant reregistering after a protracted flounce, so thanks for bringing it up.

 

[Siouxsie]

Cornish pasty and a strawberry trifle. Cup of tea

 

[Nine Bob Note]

Mashed Potato Alfedo

I thought I'd just invented it, but apparently it's a thing

 

[ringo]

Sober doner

 

[Thimble Queen]

A can of chickpeas with salt, chilli flakes and more of the posh oil eaten out of tupperware: the last clean receptacle in the flat

 

[polly]

Southern fried Quorn burger in a wholemeal roll with watercress, home-made pickles, mayo, hot sauce and ketchup. Now possibly red bean chocolate brownie cake and coffee.

Meant to say, sojourner, I made parmiggiana at the weekend with a fucking ginormous beast of an aubergine from my mum's allotment that fed a family a four, with leftovers Your recipe was lush, thanks And I had some for lunch yesterday or day before (relevance to thread). Lidl prawn noodlegate a mere memory
