What's for lunch?

Rice cakes with red pepper chick pea hummous, carrot salad, nuts, fruit.

Today we had home made butter chicken (with turkey breast). Boiled rice, broccoli and nan bread. Strawberries and cream for dessert.
Called in on DD after having my hair cut. She gave me a strawberry tequila liqueur which was delicious.

I had meatballs and roasted vegetables, both from the freezer and a small non-alcohol beer 🍺

My lovely brother is living with us until he buys a home. He insists on purchasing all foods (lucky us). He loves wild salmon, and today is Friday.

foxie48 if you mean your mixed salad was all from the garden, gold star gardening! I had some herb leaves from the garden and pea shoots from the windowsill plus a bought hummus and falafel. Then the first home grown strawberries too, with yoghurt and a treat from Lidl of Italian chestnut honey 😋

Nope sadly not, just the broad beans and mint but I do have new potatoes, spinach and radishes to eat now and a lot more fruit and veg to come over the next few weeks.

Main meal after gym of salmon and stir fry

Home made vegetable soup with a chunk of rye and buckwheat. Stewed rhubarb and fat free yogurt.

Mixed salad of cucumber, red onion, beetroot, red pepper, tomato, broad beans and mint from the garden plus spiced chick peas and peanuts for extra protein with a homemade lemon tahini dressing. Delicious and for something sweet I had a satsuma.

We had gyoza and miso soup out at the local shopping centre. I had been working on the computer all morning so it was by way of a break.

Bread and cheese

A brunch, as always, 16/8. Two weetabix, prunes, blueberries and strawberries.

With raw veg that looked slightly sorry for itself.
I rarely eat cooked veg. Always eaten raw.
Mum used to say, you will change and like cooked veg. Never have!

Weds always seems to end up being leftovers day.

I have some chicken to eat up so put it with a microwave pizza that never has enough chicken on it.
I dont eat that much pizza, but saw two people eating it separately on tv programmes last night, so took that as my cue!

Tuna and red onion sandwich and seven cherry tomatoes.

Scrambled eggs with cheese on toast

Ham and salad sandwich, and an apple, with a pot of tea.
All your lunches sound delicious.
I am making a Gousto recipe for tonight.

Toast and blackberry jam .

Dressed crab salad , jersey royals , fresh beetroot. Can’t wait.
A late lunch when Dh returns from fishing.

Cold meat, tomatoes and my husband's home made chutney, delicious. Fruit to follow.

Will be sitting in the golf club waiting for DH to have a golf lesson so I will order sandwich at the bar - shall I have a drink not sure?

Certainly!! Wish I was there!

We are having smoked salmon and egg mayonnaise either in a sandwich or on a plate with sundried tomatoes and coleslaw. The coleslaw has been open a while so will have to think carefully and sniff!

Avocado on toast. I blame M and S for putting the idea in my head......

Avocados, cannellini, herbs, lemon squeeze on rice cakes. Fruit.

Two poached eggs on crusty toast and an Orange.
