Lunch ideas??

[Lozzy25]

What do you all have for lunch? I'm looking for some inspiration I'm pescatarian and I usually have soup with veggies and hummus + fruit/yogurt or I have toast with marmite/peanut butter or a sandwich but I'm getting bored!

I just had some leftover spicy vegetable curry (sweet potato spinach and pea) with homemade raita.

Poached eggs on toast or with asparagus to dip
Welsh rarebit
Pita, falafel and salad with tahini dressing
Smoked mackerel pate on crackers with salad

A friend made baked potatoes for lunch the other day. We never have them at home as DC don't like them. It was so delicious - with melted cheese or home made coleslaw.

Mine's usually something along the lines of soup and bread, or crackers and lovely cheese, with an apple and grapes.

I do have leftovers too, like the pp. I often plan leftovers so my lunch is sorted for a day or two. Things like quiche are staples.

A packet of the one-portion Tilda pulses range. E.g. www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/293226810 They're equally as nice cold or hot.
One of the one-portion crustless quiches e.g. www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/281640912 I heat it up if I feel like it, but more often than not I eat it cold with some green salad that I keep in a bag in the fridge at work.
Sometimes I take a jacket potato that I cooked the previous night and just reheat it in the microwave. I have it with with one of the small one-portions of tinned tuna in tomato sauce. My DH also takes a jacket potato and has it with a snap pot of Heinz beans because he doesn't like fish.
If I have time I'll make this and it lasts a few days in the fridge www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/11690/10minute-couscous-salad It only takes 10 minutes
Rice cakes/oatcakes spread with cream cheese. You can get those little snack pots of Philadelphia.
Cold pizza
I went through a spell of taking the individual packets of Ryvita/Jacobs Crispbreads/Jacobs Ciabatta to work with a pot of humous, guacamole, salsa, cottage cheese or cream cheese to spread on them.
I also like the single portion tins of tuna in a Mexican dressing that you can get from Tesco and Prince's mackerel fillets in a sweet chilli sauce. My DH liked beans on toast for lunch so he takes the Heinz Beanz snap pots to microwave.
Pitta bread and falafel
Corn tortilla wrap with houmous and red pepper.
Avocado with cottage cheese

I live off soup in the winter. Bloody love the stuff and always have tons of homemade soup in the freezer. In the warmer weather, I have a variety of salads with feta, prawns, ham and egg, cheese, sometimes leftover chicken if we have any in the house. Sometimes I throw in pasta or bulgar wheat (hate couscous). I also love quiche with salad.

In spring and autumn when the weather is in between, I go for more jacket potato, omelette, tuna mayo pasta, etc.

Funnily, it's quite unusual for me to have leftovers but I do freeze them for another time.

Oh and I also have the odd Sandwich with salad or veggies but not everyday. And stuff like pitta, hummus, olives, crudités.

Just had a tuna mayo and tomato sandwich

If at home I'll have stuffed mushrooms with salad, egg en cocotte, jacket potato, omelette, soup, fish tacos, cheese and tomato on toast etc. Easy quick small meals.

At work I'll have sandwiches or wraps (egg and cress, hummus and roast peppers, curried lentil and carrot, Brie and cranberry, cheese and tomato etc) , soup in a flask or a portable pot noodle type thing in a mason jar that I can add boiling water to. I know all the chefs say that salad is portable, but I can't keep it unwilted through the journey and don't have enough hands to add a cooler bag to my load.

I usually roast a tray of vegetables on Sunday evening with different herbs/spices and mix it through either giant couscous, quinoa etc. I add different bits each day depending on whats in the fridge eg feta, leftover roast meat, etc. It lasts 3/4 days in the fridge. Smoked paprika with chilli flakes is a current fave for the veg.
