Lunch should have its own thread

Pasta now cooking. To be tarted up with the last smidgen of smoked salmon, butter, dill, lemon juice and capers.
When you are having a swanky lunch like that you need to have a suitably posh drink with it.
I've got Vimto. :D
 
I am making broccoli and stilton soup (Felicity Cloake recipe from the ever reliable Grauniad "How to make the perfect..." series) which we will have as a late lunch when OH gets home from work in about an hour. With some granary bread.

Italian-style veg soup, mainly because I'd a courgette and a pepper that needed using up. I now have a problem: I've made enough for three portions, but the freezer is chock full!

Similar issue here, tons and tons of veg that needs using rapidly and an over-stuffed freezer - planning to make ratatouille for the freezer (which has the added benefit of working well as a base for pasta sauce or a veggie curry, so is very flexible) but will need to go through it first for an advanced level tetris session (possibly removing stuff from packaging and decanting into bags to free up some space)
 
Fried fish with tomato rice . Everything’s shut here after 1pm Saturday and Sunday so I’m going to cook chilli con carne and a lamb stew at home weekend and get lost slowly with red wine .
 
A tasty but expensive sausage roll from a cafe whilst out walking, and then later on two rolls with philadelphia and pickle (not a great combo but using up a jar) and 3 easy peelers
 
Two philadelphia and mustard (not a great combo I discovered) baps while out walking. Coveted the soup and chips available takeaway from various seafront cafes, promised myself some at end of walk. Queue quite long when I returned 3 hours later, and I was too chilly to stand and wait.

Regretted putting my thermos in storage.
 
Homemade chicken and veg soup on the go now, just been out to chuck some lentils in it to thicken it up. This required a taste test. There's not a right lot of chicken in it because I stripped the carcass bare to use for other things, but it tastes really chickeny. Aces. So it'll be that with some wholemeal toast.
