Traditional Sunday lunch, but what for tea?

[feejee]

If you have a traditional Sunday lunch, what would you then have for tea/dinner?

I need ideas other than cheese on toast, as that's my only idea.

Loads of ideas, thanks. We'd normally eat a main meal in the eve, but my in-laws do Sunday lunch at 1pm. Then we're not really hungry until 7ish and everyone is getting bored of my only idea being cheese on toast.

Either: dippy eggs or crumpets or a sandwich (prawn or salmon cream cheese) or bread&jam

followed by

a slice of victoria sponge or a tunnocks tea cake or a slice of fruit loaf

with a pot of tea.

Finished with a piece of fruit if still not replete.

Slice of quiche with salad

Avocado toast (with or without poached egg) or bruschetta

Any kind of eggs

Hummus, crudités, tapenade, toast

Beans on toast or soup

We don't do a Sunday lunch but growing up we'd have cheese on toast, frozen mini sausage rolls, soup (especially these creamy Knorr sachets I used to love), a boiled egg and soldiers.

My brother for years would only eat egg sandwiches and mum would hard boil and egg to death. The smell of boiled eggs will always be linked with the Antiques Roadshow and the feeling that I've forgotten about some homework

Homemade vegetable soup with nice bread and grated cheese.

These threads genuinely puzzle me. How can you not think what to eat? Trying not to sound snarky but I just don't understand how it's possible.

But don't the weirdos people who don't want cheese on toast ever say what they do want, or even make something for everyone?

Keeping the sandwich vibe @feejee - how about quesadillas, or a mumbai toastie? Or maybe some eggs en cocotte, or a spanish tortilla.

Away from the OP, this is a thread that really needed 'Crumbs" to appear to tell us how the village would put up fairy lights on a Sunday at 4pm and each household would deliver a full afternoon tea tray to their neighbour on the left but one...

Crumpets but normally nothing

Cheese.
fruit n yoghurt

Crumpets.

Sausage and onion roll (I just had one)

We eat ours ( only have one 3/4 times a year ) very late afternoon / early eve so don't eat much maybe some nuts / crisps / popcorn or if also made a pudding such as crumble / apple pie etc maybe that a couple of hours after the meal .

Nothing. I’d be full up,

Olives, cheese, sun dried tomatoes, Spanish ham

In my childhood it was boiled eggs and soldiers, or egg sandwiches, followed by sponge cake.

Nowadays we normally have Sunday dinner at teatime, but a secondary meal might be

boiled eggs and soldiers
smoked mackerel and cucumber
hummous, with cucumber and carrot sticks and pitta bread
home-made mackerel pate with melba toast (yesterday's tea)
pork pie and baby plum tomatoes (today's lunch)
cheese on toast
scrambled egg and potato waffles
some form of home-made soup, maybe with some form of bread
bacon lettuce and tomato rolls
cheeseboard and crackers

We always had sandwiches of the roast meat, with coleslaw etc.

DH and I eat too late for that now, but sometimes I miss those sandwiches.

This sounds AMAZING

A banana and a slice of toast.

We’ve just had cheese and ham with crackers.

Our Sunday lunch is usually late, at around 4-5pm, so sometimes it sees us through if it was a big meal. Usually we’ll have something like crisps and dips or toast if we get peckish around dinner time.

Marmite on toast on thick seeded bread with a big cup of tea 😋

Cheese on toast, Pate. My df used to have bread and dripping.

Toast with butter toasted with a giant fork in front of a coal fire whilst my hair dried.

Cake. Pudding. What ever people fancy really. Fruit. We have a massive Sunday lunch:)

For some reason we often do egg mayonnaise sandwiches. It just seems like a Sunday tea kind of thing.

If I got hungry again - which is unlikely but depends on what time the roast was served - I'd just pick at the leftovers. You make sure you have leftovers, right?

Egg and soldiers.
