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.

@Mowyourlawn I’m always happy when I can put that lunch together from the fridge complete with the instant gravy.

spanish omelette, a large slice of ham, coleslaw, salad and half an avocado.

Errr probably shouldn’t post mine as these are all healthy, mine is a sausage roll, bag of C&O crisps, Mars Bar and a Kit Kat Chunky! Suppose I could have a glass of water instead of the can of Sprite to even it out a bit Grin

Does every one eating eggs wfh if not doesn't end office get a bit stinky?

I've never really understood this. Food makes food smells. If someone is eating eggs in a restaurant or café, do you find that stinky? I get that an office isn't a café, but foods don't change from smelling fine to smelling bad just because they're in a different location! In any case, what smells nice or not comes down to personal preference.

I'm a teacher at a school where most teachers eat in the staffroom (where people work too) rather than the canteen. People eat eggs, fish, curry, all sorts!

Same as I had for breakfast: a slice of the gluten-free, no-added-sugar carrot cake with yoghurt frosting that I made last night because I couldn't sleep.

That sounds amazing
I’d be tempted to go for a hat trick and have it for dinner too

Really bad today. We are both off. Husband fancied chippy chips with his pie we got in. So I ended up having a few on some brown bread. Was nice.

Fish finger sandwich!

honeyfox · 07/08/2024 14:36

A wrap with sliced ham, cheese, lettuce, radish, sweet red peppers and red onion and a bit of relish as well.

Rice cakes with smoked salmon
A pack of sugar snap peas
A pack of mini flapjacks

AdoraBell · 07/08/2024 14:45

Cheese sandwich. CBA with anything else today. DD had Covid last week and I’m sure it’s my turn this week 🤦‍♀️ don’t even have enough energy to be jealous of all your lunches and cakes.

marmaladeandpeanutbutter · 07/08/2024 14:51

Butter beans and stir fry veg with couscous, both left overs.

House full of mildly grumpy DH and teens today and we've done a lot these last 2 weeks and they have a full fridge so I've taken an extended shopping trip to Take Something Back and now enjoying a leisurely solo Wagamamas.

Ooh I love FFs with taco shells and crunchy lettuce

Does it count if I had it for pudding after a main course of mushroom and onion soup (so essentially the lion's share of my dinner calories came from cake)?

Sainsburys meal deal - chicken katsu wrap, salt and vinegar squares and an innocent smoothie

That wrap is the best shop bought sandwich/wrap/ baguette/ any other bread product that I’ve ever had.

Same. It is. It's got red cabbage in and then mmm the katsu sauce is spot on
