Lunch should have its own thread

Your chai sounds fit, mate.

Today, I had a cheese and chorizo sarnie.

Hello!!! How you doing, lovely?

Yeah it's nice, but too much pepper for me. It's this one, if anyone is interested: How to Make [the best] Chai [ever] - The Hathi Cooks

I've started a new lunch thing (obviously the dance is with myself!) and its kinda like: lets have some vegetables, beans, nuts and cheese in the one lunchbox. 1 of everything. And i think could be easily adapted for a vegetarian or vegan (im surrounded by them at work, which is great craic). Today, i was quite hungover and surprised myself that my lunch of: a few leftover potatoes, chickpeas, cashew nuts, feta cheese and balsamic and olive oil really filled me up! Didnt need the chips that i was craving. Learning all the time.....that is the beauty of experimenting with food: it teaches you how to do better all the time.

Jealous, sojourner! I am about to have a cheese, mayonnaise and hot sauce toastie. I'm not too hopeful about it tbh.

 

[moonsi til]

I had a salad of lots of leaves, spring onions, cocktail pickled onions, plum tomatoes, cucumber, beetroot with juniper & black pepper then drizzled with balsamic & topped with 6 crispy quorn nuggets.

Sorry polly but you sicken me. Cheese and mayo is bad enough but to put it in a 'hot sauce toastie' too? Fucking pervert. Urgh.

wtf is wrong with cheese and mayo??

I will concede on every other point, including that I am indeed quite a pervert.

show off ;P

if you mean, 'roughly chopped and bunged in oven' then bunged in lunchbox, yep. Making that lunch is a piece of p*ss (only thing that's a hassle is not burning stuff in the oven)

 

[blairsh]

Grilled cheese sandwich.

I have just made Chinese chicken and cashewnuts in a blackbean sauce. I tenderised the chicken by soaking it in bicarb of soda for 15 mins.- it's amazing it's tastes like a proper Chinese without sugar ( apart from what was in the 2 tsp of black Bean sauce) or msg. I'm going to look out how to make blackbean sauce from scratch !

 

[sojourner]

I roasted a chicken for myself on Saturday as himself was away, so had a nice big fat chicken butty for lunch with a good dollop of coleslaw ont plate. Then a ripe plum and then a bit of Onket black cherry yoghurt.
