Quick lunch ideas

[MiniatureRed]

I've had sandwiches/wraps every day for 2 weeks and I'm starting to go crazy

What can I make that's quick and easy? I don't like eggs. Salad wouldn't fill me up!

What are you all having for lunch?

Today I had beans on toast and we have had a lot more soup recently (too many carrots). How about baked potato? Or you could cook a bit extra the night before and have leftovers?

Potato waffle

Cheese and leeks/spring onions on toast, anchovies on toast, pate on crackers/melba toast with salad, soup with bread, pesto pasta with cherry tomatoes, tinned ravioli, houmous and breadsticks and veg with salad and chicken pieces.

Cheese scone (I heat mine up) with marmite or chutney/pickle
Pitta bread with houmous
Pastrami bagel
Cream cheese bagel
Sausage roll
Rice cakes topped with cream cheese
Dried couscous (only takes 5 minutes soaking in boiled water) This is my favourite one www.sainsburys.co.uk/gol-ui/product/quinoa--couscous---grains/ainsley-harriott-roasted-vegetable-cous-cous-100g It does 2 servings and I just add crumbled feta and cherry tomatoes.

Grilled naan bread with paneer cheese

Veg fritters - I use chickpea flour but you could always use ordinary flour to make the batter . Add whatever bits of veg you have - chopped spring onion, grated carrot, grated courgette, sweetcorn all work well. I add chilli and fresh herbs. Fry dollops in a bit of oil and serve with either a yogurt/lime/herb sauce or tomato salsa or ketchup if that's your thing.

I made a big pot of green lentil and carrot curried soup.

A mug of that with a buttered crumpet is perfection

... for about 3 days.

But mainly I am having some variation of wraps with ham or cheese on toast,.

Oh- and we had leftover salmon roe from christmas so i had that last week on a bagel with cream cheese.

I may have had a shot of vodka as well just to complete the Eastern European flavour to the emal. Delicious.

Do you like cous cous? Lovely with roasted veg. Quiche? Sausage rolls and beans. Can't think of much else without eggs sorry!

Oh, soup with oatcakes and cheese
Falafels and hummus

‘Baked’ sweet potato - sweet potato in microwave two minutes each side - seems to help if you punch it when you turn it over. Blob hummus on top. Bit of salad at the side.

Pre-made pastry case from supermarket - put in tin of tuna mixed with mayo and garlic salt - sprinkle with cheese - stick in oven - yummy!

Some great ideas I've written down, thank you! I'm especially keen to find non-bread ideas.

You said you don't like eggs but what about Yorkshire pudding? Egg, flour and milk mixed, heat oil in a shallow tin in oven, cook for 20 mins. I have with cheese or ham/beef/bacon, fried tomatoes, mushrooms , peppers and spinach

Pancakes filled with various stuffing (goats cheese, spinach and caramelised onion is my current favourite) google menu for crepe affair and it'll give some ideas for other fillings.

Pancakes is a good shout! Not sure what DC will think of a savoury one.

Had cous cous today!
