What's your favourite hot weather lunch?

I love feta. The saltiness is what I need on a hot day. I only have half a pack left. Must put that on the shopping list. And boil some eggs shortly for a tuna salad..

I love watermelon with feta - that combination of the sweet and salty is divine - but I confess that I rarely eat it in this country because the watermelon isn't nearly as nice as you get abroad.

Cold poached salmon with mayonaise, cold asparagus and warm jersey royals, boiled with mint and slathered in butter.

I love Serrano ham and slices of ripe peach or nectarine with a green salad and a good olive oil dressing. It's that combination of sweet,salty, crunchy and juicy that's so enjoyable on a hot day. I haven't had a BBQ for ages but halloumi and watermelon kebabs are lovely too with a salad.

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

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!

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

Ham and plain crisps in a white bread sandwich..

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

Mmmm they all sound scrummy

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

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.

One made by someone else.

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

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