I will probably make some mackerel pate and have it on a baguette with salad and walnuts. Then a coffee and some chocolate

Probably toast.

cleanasawhistle · 16/07/2024 10:51

I have all the veg prepped in the soup maker to turn on later

I have never made pate before, is it easy?

MeinKraft · 16/07/2024 10:52

Probably a tomato sandwich and a bag of monster munch. And a cup of tea,

BigDahliaFan · 16/07/2024 10:54

deeply uninspired looking in the fridge so I've made a salad of leaves, olives, left over chicken and avocado with a couple of small pitta bread. It's sitting on my desk at work and I'm still uninspired by it...

Tabbouleh and falafel with hummus 😋

Leftover curry from last night’s dinner.

Hot smoked mackerel salad with pasta. The salad is sundried tomatoes, chargrilled veg, advocado, lettuce, tomatoes and spring onions with a mediterranean dressing.

I’m on training at work, it’s a new program combining several agencies so we’re training at a fancy pants hotel and have lunch in the restaurant every day. I’m on week three of four week training and never felt so spoilt 😂

weareallqueens · 16/07/2024 11:00

Super noodles. 😳

IHopeYouStepOnALegPiece · 16/07/2024 11:02

Smoked burrata, prosciutto, focaccia, tomatoes and some spicy sausage…and realistically some gelato too 😂 It’s the last day of holiday in Italy 💔 so making the most of it!

Flumpie59 · 16/07/2024 11:02

Our local Brysons bakery does gorgeous hot cheese and onion slices and sausages so I'll have 1 of each with a takeaway hot chocolate and have them here at work.

It's 11:02am so I only have another hour to go .... !

MeinKraft · 16/07/2024 11:03

@pambeesleyhalpert pickled onion as it's all I have in but what I really want is roast beef

Decafflatteplease · 16/07/2024 11:04

Chicken and bacon wrap (shop bought), 2 tangerines and a cup of tea

FuckMeUpFlorida · 16/07/2024 11:04

Hummus topped with olive oil and 'everything' seasoning, with flatbreads to scoop it all up.

I'm ill at the moment but today is the first day I wanted to eat something more than soup.

Chocolately · 16/07/2024 11:07

Chicken rice and veg soup, buttered Tiger baguette. Banana.

Hemiola · 16/07/2024 11:07

Left over bulgar wheat salad from an ottolenghi recipe which is super tasty and some melon. My elevnsies is less healthy...a Belgian bun. Yum!

Cuppaand2biscuits · 16/07/2024 11:08

I've just had scrambled egg, mushrooms and tomatoes. Technically breakfast but I've got to go to work in half an hour so there won't be time for lunch.

Durdledore · 16/07/2024 11:12

I didn’t have time to make mine this morning so I grabbed some things I could eat from Asda - all gluten free as have coeliac disease.

Came to just over £15 so that’s an hour and a bit of one of my hours on today’s shift gone on lunch 🙈

It’s stuff like mixed nuts, carrots and hummus pot, babybel, cheese and chorizo rollitos and some god awful cake bars that just need binning they’re that bad.

pastabest · 16/07/2024 11:12

Quinoa with beetroot and feta salad, sliced cherry tomatoes with basil, mini cornichons and carrot batons on the side with some sweet chilli houmous and a few slices of cold sausages leftover from last night sprinkled over the top.

Marmite27 · 16/07/2024 11:13

Beef taco mince with courgette, red and yellow pepper and red onion. Plus a salad.

Then an apple.

Catsmere · 16/07/2024 11:14

Lunch was eight hours ago (Australia) but I had a delicious and very filling bowl of granola with Greek yoghurt, strawberries, blueberries and honey and a hot chocolate at a cafe. Also very expensive, unfortunately, I won't be doing that often!

user1497787065 · 16/07/2024 11:16

Leftover lasagne from last night and three huge strawberries with yogurt
