What's your favourite hot weather lunch?

My favourite at any time is a four fish finger sandwich with plenty of salad. If I only have lettuce in the fridge I will pile some on one slice of bread, any kind I’m not fussy, pop the fish fingers on top squirt plenty of salad cream, not mayonnaise I’m allergic, put the other slice of bread on top squash down, cut in four and I’m happy. My niece who also loves the same has found that most eating places will now happily serve fish finger sandwiches if asked, cheap and cheerful 😊

yogurt and fresh or tinned fruit, or breakfast cereal. It's too hot to have anything much.

Oh dear! I just had a large boiled egg and cucumber sandwich with lots of baby tomatoes and a packet of crisps on the side with a cup of tea. Am I the only one who doesn't lose her appetite because of the heat?
It's not my favourite, I'd much rather have cheese and I am very partial to a fish finger sandwich or a prawn sarnie with lots of salad.

Reading those meal ideas, I’m hungry now in spite of the heat!

My Tesco delivery will be bere at any time now. I'm waiting for my bacon. lettuce and tomato sandwich.
I don't usually have any lunch. I pick at things I shoudn't during the afternoon.

A watermelon, feta, chilli and mint salad.

Oooh 😚that last suggestion sounds just the job Sago

I had my usual late breakfast after overnight fasting, weetabix, blueberries and strawberries.

I had a tuna mayo & cucumber sandwich with salted caramel icecream for dessert. It will be salad new potatoes and chicken piri piri kebabs for dinner plus Sauvignon blanc as it’s Friday!

If I were on the beach in Nerja I would be having paella and a cold beer.

One made by someone else.

There was only me for lunch today, I had leftover Jersey Royals out of the fridge with some coleslaw.

Quiche, Greek salad and stuffed (with cheese and onion) jacket potatoes and a lovely chilled glass of Rosé.

Sorry, posted too soon. Will be having the quiche for dinner.

Mmmm they all sound scrummy

It’s a tough call, but I think ideally mozzarella, tomato and pesto on ciabatta, followed by an orange - I love oranges, I have one every day. Gluten free ciabatta is okay, but nowhere near as good as the real thing unfortunately.

Bacon, lettuce and tomato generously layered with good mayonnaise, on a toasted panini! To die for, whatever the weather.

Ham and plain crisps in a white bread sandwich..

It is so hot now I might just have sliced banana and ice cream tonight.

I so miss oranges. Sadly, they don't like me anymore, not even orange juice.

Salmon and asparagus quiche with avocado and watercress

A tasty filling lunch is a plated prawn salad: prawns, marie rose sauce/mayonnaise, avocado+orange slices
/lettuce/cucumber/tomatoes/
and a thin piece of brown bread and butter spread.
Like a big prawn cocktail.

I made a salmon pasta salad for lunch today - it was very nice indeed, even if I do say so myself!

My sandwich was Brie, Dijon mustard and tomatoes and yes, a salted caramel ice cream afterwards
Agree about the Sauvignon blanc tonight!

A watermelon, feta, chilli and mint salad.

I do love watermelon and feta. Always reminds me of hot, sunny days in Greece.
