What did you have for lunch thread - NO BLOG LINKS & NO PIC QUOTING

Honey-ec

Two slices of homemade brown bread with onions, loads of sharp cheddar and a good splash of Worcestershire sauce, flashed under the grill til bubbling. It were right good...

Would you eat..........an armidillo?

Yup. And roadkill too. Probably not rat though.

Today I had chicken in an orange & pepper sauce with romanesco.

We were doing yeast products in college yesterday and did some pizza which made for a delicious lunch, I went a bit overboard with topping but it was still gorgeous.

It had pepperoni, ham, salami, mushroom, pepper, cheddar, feta, oregano and chilli flakes.

I had a hot croissant with ham and cheese.

Add a glass of wine and you have, quite possibly, the best lunch ever.

Half a ham, mustard and butter demi-baguette - simple but yummy.

The Hill Billy

I read "half a ham" & I thought - Wow!
Then I realised it was half a sandwich & I thought - OK - that is a bit more reasonable just for lunch.

emeraldstar

Christmas Lunch sandwich: turkey, sausage stuffing, crispy onion, cranberry sauce and, for some reason, spinach. Yum.

NewFrockTuesday

Panadol and Lucozade.

CathyMoran

Microwave pasta, pesto sauce and mayo.

We have some cooked ham in the fridge that has to be eaten so that is on my list too!

Honey-ec

Nothing. Didn't feel like eating so I didn't take lunch. Sorry now, though, cause the day is draaaaaaaaaaaaaaaggggggggggggginnnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggg.

Had a bit of a complicated day today so dropped into SuperQuinn on way home at lunch time and got a Turkey, Coleslaw, red onion and peppers roll made up.

Also picked up a Cully and Scully pea/mint soup reduced so had both when trying to make computers work remotely (yes a boring as it seems) but the soup and roll were very good indeed!

I'm at home doing college work and study for the day so just threw together a quick omelette with chorizo, red pepper, sun dried tomatoes and cheese. Robbed the idea from one we make in work which I love. Unfortunately we didn't have any spinach to add a bit of green.

Still though, simple, quick and delicious. Perfect study break food.

ConTheCat

Brown bread sandwich with red peppers ham and lettuce. Don't know whether to have the same tomorrow with a beautiful chutney sauce or have soup!

neuro-praxis

I had some leftover chilli with corn chips and sour cream.

Having said that, Ive been wondering what owl tastes like. I saw one on broadsheet the other day and it looked very like a moth so I kinda went off them as an animal - which makes them fair game for food. Hilly Billy, seeing as you seem to eat anything with a pulse - have you ever had it?

No, I've not tried owl. Would certainly give it a go though.

Pretty sure you shouldn't eat owl.
Firstly they are protected, but they are also carnivores. I think in general carnivore meat isn't great. I can't think of many carnivores that are eaten regularly. Dog?

The Hill Billy

Shark? Anyway, my point was that I would try anything at least once. The only food that I truly cannot stomach are mushy peas.

Im not planning on it! Yah, I asked our company Exc Chef and she said that they are protected and pretty much the same thing about carnivored. She reckons it would be quite gamey too though!

I had shark before - vilevilevile. Eating ugly things is off putting to me. Sharks have mean faces so my head thinks they wont be tasty. So when I ate it my head was controlling what I tasted. Plus its fishy so wasnt expecting anything great anyway. Was like a rubbery old whiting.


Sorry! HAd lentil and chicken soup with homemade soda bread. Again.

The Hill Billy

Getting back on-topic (;)) - lunch here today will be fried pork kidneys in honey and herb marinade with mango sauce & corn on the cob.

What I actually had for lunch: Beer.

A corned beef sandwich. Blast from the past!

I just had the most incredible home-made potato-based veggie burger for lunch, with a little leftover pork from the other night. Amazing.

Went for lunch in Bertie's Bar at the Annebrook Hotel in Mullingar. €11.50 for lunch, including a mineral.

Delicious food, good sized portion and for very little.
