9 points - 8 of which for the way you cut the avocado 😆

Actually looks very healthy and tasty.

It the most perfectly ripe avocado ive ever experienced in my life 🤩 I fear avocados will never be the same again, a bit like when you eat fruit in a tropical country

I am very happy you have the photo for posterity. Get it framed and on the wall pronto.

It was meant to be a taco bowl, but the salad got out of hand and didn't fit in the bowl

I love that the 'salad got out of hand', I know exactly what you mean! 🤣🤣

Pasta gets out of hand in my house. I swear it actually multiplies whilst boiling 👀

I framed it and put it on the mantlepiece. Didn't need my childs first school photo there anyway, I know what he looks like in his uniform

"Small village" is the only acceptable pasta serving size

I wrapped the chicken leg in tin foil and put in the air fryer - so the skin sticks to the tin foil and comes off - there was a bit on joint

I was going to give 5/10 for skin removal (tastiest part of the chicken) but giving you 0/10 for the aluminium leaching into the chicken from cooking it wrapped in foil negating any health gains from your salads! Cooking in foil or aluminium pans is linked to increased risk of Alzheimer’s and neurological issues in quite a few studies incase you weren’t aware. Also why wrap it to air fry? The skin naturally keeps the chicken moist and tastes delicious.

I’ll give it an eight for content as it’s similar to mine!

i think you’ve got the message on the presentation of the chicken 😄

Yours gets a 10 from me!

Mostly due to the addition of 🍷 but there we go 😁

It does look seriously tasty though.

9 you need some sunshine but probably not your fault ;

whatdoidonowffs · 04/05/2026 14:21

Did you cook the chicken on a radiator ?

Blarn · 04/05/2026 14:24

6/10 I like all the elements but would have mixed the beans in the cous cous with an olive oil heavy dressing and shredded the chicken and mixed that in too.

Although I am eating a burrata out of a plastic baby food bowl with a pint so who am I to judge someone else's lunch?

That chicken looks absolutely horrible. The rest looks nice so 3/10

Alwayswonderedwhy · 04/05/2026 14:25

I don't eat meat but that aside it looks very bland. Is there any seasoning or dressing?

Wynter25 · 04/05/2026 14:26

TheBeaTgoeson1 · 04/05/2026 11:52

The huge hunk of animal flesh makes it a 0/10 for me.

10 for me. Chicken needs sauce

Chicken looks anaemic, needs to be brown and crispy.

The Alzheimer Society says there is no established causal link between aluminium and Alzheimer’s disease.

YouBelongWithMe · 04/05/2026 11:52

4/10 - no sauce or rub on the chicken?! Not even a crispy seasoned skin. No salad dressing to see. It doesn't look very flavourful.

My thoughts exactly

7/10 OP!

I would have left the tin foil off the chicken when air frying as it crisps the skin beautifully.

I don't like cous cous. Don't mind the beans at all.

I love the rest of your salad though as I absolutely HATE any salad dressing.🤮. Dry, crunchy salad every time for me.🥰

10/10 This looks perfect. Perfect chicken skin, perfect couscous and salad. Portion size deserves a gold star. Would eat that now if I could! Well done!

I love that you’re having a glass of wine at 2pm!

I never drink early on in the day unless it’s an actual event/celebration.
I don’t even know why!
