.... to ask what you are having for lunch

[stressedout1994]

I have asked before... I am now asking again... mumsnetters, what are you having for lunch?

I had white rice with curried lentils, spicy cabbage, and chutney. I wish I had some sweet treats in but I don't so will probably eat a spoon of jam.

Mushroom stir fry, butter beans, and a banana.

A Kind bar. Normally I wait until 4pm to eat but I had no evening meal yesterday so was starving!

This, was delicious

I had a tuna salad, with lettuce, red onion, peppers, cucumber and tomato. I’m still hungry though!

Cheese and onion toasted sandwich with some apple slices. And a glass of water.

Leftover onion and chilli pasta, with half a small tin of leftover sweetcorn on top. Apple for pudding.

Leftover roast chicken, cucumber, tomatoes, red cabbage thinly sliced and lettuce with some seeds sprinkled over, dressed with chopped gherkins, olives oil and balsamic vinegar. It's lovely. I'll have a couple of snickers dates after (dates filled with peanut butter and topped with melted dark choc, put in freezer).

A packet of blueberries in a plain yoghurt.

I love your mug 😍

Same as every luchtime when kids (teens) are on summer hols; ploughman's, both kids very fussy, so I can tweak each plate, it's easy, it's light, it's balanced nutritionally and healthy and both kids will actually eat something before disappearing out the house again, it's also the most cost effective lunch I can provide to ensure maximum eating and least wasteage

Slice of buttered sourdough toast, half a tin of beans, poached egg.

Top tier wfh lunch.

The other half of the fish and chips we had last night from our wonderful chip van - massive portions 😋
A handful of grapes and a tangerine.

I had carrot and coriander soup with an ancient grain seeded roll and butter, a small piece of Caerphilly cheese, followed by blueberries and raspberries with Greek yogurt and sprinkling of mixed seeds.

A bacon sandwich.

Small portion of pesto pasta and some twiglets. Will have an orange too.

Carrot soup
Bacon and mushroom tagliatelle and salad
Baileys cheesecake

Ham and cheese omelette. Ds aged 12 had a ham and cheese toastie.

I had a slice of seedy toast with guacamole, crispy bacon and poached egg. It was more brunch than lunch. It was my first time cooking poached eggs (I’m 46 😆) and although the whites were a bit crap, the yolk was just right.

A huge mound of stir-fried cabbage greens, cooked in olive oil and butter, with two pork sausages

I had Feta, tomato,.cucumber and black olives. Doesn't sound much (made in a rush this morning) but was tasty and surprisingly filling!

I have just emptied the contents of the fridge into a bowl. The weekly shop comes on a Wednesday, so Tuesday is always "finishing the dregs".
