What's for lunch?

I'm stuck in a lunch rut! So I'm shamelessly starting a thread to find out what everyone else is eating and steal ideas.

I tend to either have roasted veg (butternut squash, sweet spud, shallots, swede, peppers, carrots) with wholegrain mustard, or something like ryvita with tomatoes and mozzarella. But I'm a bit bored and want to try something new.

What have you got for lunch today?

Cheese, mayo, spring onion seeded wrap.
Peach
Lentil curl crisps
Hardly exciting!
When I'm at work it's salad and 3 pieces of fruit

Home made red pepper, fennel. tomato and chilli soup - made with a load of slightly wrinkly things in the fridge drawer.
I have a friend popping over for lunch so I've also made a Victoria sandwich with buttercream.

This morning has dragged for me and I am staving but I am just about to pack my stuff up so I can go and eat

Sunshineonleith12 · 18/06/2019 12:52

Chocolate cake! Shhh if noone sees me eat it, it doesn't count does it?

SwimmerGirl40 · 18/06/2019 12:55

Tinned sardines in tomato sauce, on seeded toast. Not very exciting but I’m working from home by myself.

I usually take a salad box into the office - mixed leaves, couple of new potatoes or brown rice and tuna or turkey with whatever salad stuff veg is in the fridge.

LuckyKitty13 · 18/06/2019 12:55

I usually have crackers and cheese, with hummus and raw veg sticks. Very dull I'm afraid!

RickAstleyGaveMeUp · 18/06/2019 13:02

Spicy chicken and mushroom, chopped salad in a wrap. Might get some crisps.

PineappleTits · 18/06/2019 13:03

I had a ham, Gouda and onion toastie with salad cream Grin

NomNomNominativeDeterminism · 18/06/2019 13:06

Oh sambeckett, sorry, that was very much meant to be a shamefaced note to self not a hectoring instruction to others. I have achieved sooooo little today although I have read lots of interesting things on mumsnet. And I couldn’t resist coming back to see what everyone is having for lunch!

gingajewel · 18/06/2019 13:07

A tuna wrap with lemon and thyme and salad

digdug · 18/06/2019 13:43
