I'm sitting here, browsing the boards, eating a ham, turkey and cheese sandwich on an onion bagel. Got me to thinking. What are y'all havin' for lunch?
Trudes
Not luchtime yet, but I just had a cheese omelet for breakfast.
keith from ny
Tuna salad with romaine and tomato on a spinach wrap with some Zapp's jalapeño chips.
d.
what lunch?
Brookd
I usually get up around 12 or 1, usually have breakfast around 2 or 3.
calling my next meal "lunch" seems rather silly at that point.
it's all breakfast, dinner, and late-night snacking for me.

Screaming Kids with pizza and a side of whine!

That. Is so. Cute.

I had homemade pizza and a salad, courtesy of Mom. I'll have to start working on all the fruit my professor left behind before too long. smile.gif

honey smoked turkey croissant w/ham & white bean soup, sun chips & [best of all] a peanut butter cookie. lemonade to drink. yummy!
michelle

liberation party
Raisin bran and milk is my current meal. Cereal is good.
Aaron
Nothing. I don't eat lunch.
keith from ny
Smoked turkey, fresh mozzarella and sun-dried tomatoes with Dijon dressing on a wrap.
d.
espresso
silentjane
nothing, because the teen didn't do her job and wash the pots and pans, so i have no clean dishes to make food in. i would do it, but i'm SICK today, so i shouldn't have to, right?
HappyScout
No, I will order you some take out!
We are having grilled cheese and salad, want me to come get you?
pulpexploder
Cheesy chicken florentine! I made it myself!
Aaron
lunch is such a subjective term when you get up at noon.

3 Weeks left on island...I find myself broke so I must make do with:
- 5 pounds of potatoes
- 1.5 onions
- 2 blocks of cheddar cheese
- 1/3 a box of cheerios
- a bag of some sort of pasta
- 2 cans of tomato sauce.
- 1 can of mushroom soup
- some sour cream.
- half a bag of tostito chips

The GOOD news is, I can make a huge batch of cheese potatoes with 5 of these ingredients...which means that you can just envision me eating -cheese potatoes for lunch AND dinner for the next week. mmmmm.
<making plans to hide cheese potatos from roommates who LOVE cheese potatoes>

I think people who are making tasty treats like cheesy chicken florentine and smoked turkey should send some my way...too bad it'll take a month to arrive cool.gif

I'm hosting people tonight for a light dinner before heading out to the beach to read poetry. I made a french bread stuffed sandwitch with ham, roast beef, swiss cheese, spinach, sprouts, and cream cheese with scallions and garlic in it. I hope its good and doesn't fall apart.
We had bagels for lunch because i overbought cream cheese for the sandwitches.
J. Marie Hall
i'm terrible with leisure. now would be the time to cook.

but today i drank some french roast and ate a couple of the cinnamon/choc. scones i made yesterday. and i wonder why i feel hungry and fidgety.

Aaron
Tofu curry over white rice, and fresh blueberries.
HappyScout
Hey any one want to do lunch?
bethany
I LOVE doing lunch. I make lunch plans as often as possible. That's one thing I miss about living in the dorms: you'd always eat in the dining hall with other people and good conversation.
HappyScout
Yes I alone today...and trying not to clean my house!

Amen, Bethany. My freshman year, all my friends had the same hour free for lunch, and we met everyday and sat at a huge table together. It was the highlight of every day for me.

Speaking of lunch ... I better investigate the fridge ...
kab
i have a wonderful lunch today: salad (organic greens!) with tomato, green pepper, and cheese; not-mushy lentils with onions, garlic, swiss chard, and some flavoring; and a hard-boiled egg. i love it when i take the time to make my lunch.
HappyScout
when are you going to make mine sounds really good!
kab
i do have leftovers, kim!

My folks have been doing their "we're going on vacation in 2 months and need to lose weight!" diet so I've been making sandwiches for lunch for the past couple weeks. When food is good I can eat the same thing for weeks. Pastrami on wheat, is good. But my sandwiches are scientific, they must be layered and built just right.

Like so:

100% wheat bread - mayonaise on one slice, mustard** on the other slice.
the cheese (provolone currently) must go on the mayo. it affects the texture and taste order of the sandwich.
lettuce (preferably red or green leaf) goes on the cheese.
avocado slices on the lettuce (when i have avocado).
cucumber slices on the avocado.
tomato slices on the cucumber.
sprouts (i like clover) - the sprouts need to be between the tomatoes and meat to reduce the effect of watery meat and a possibe drip on the hands. especially if you like lovely, ripe tomatoes like i do. watery sandwiches bad.
pepperoncini slices on the tomatoes.
2 peices of sliced pastrami on the sprouts/pepperoncini.
slice with mustard placed on top of pastrami.

Needless to say lunch was, yet again, quite satisfying.


**the mustard. well, i'm not a fan of yellow mustard on sandwiches. i like the honey mustards, the dijons, the ones w/ orange and mustard seeds in them. i need fancy, damnit. imagine my surprise while in the grocery store over the weekend to see Sierra Nevada Mustard. i chose the Stout & Stonegroud one - and it is delish. it may take me a while to finish off a jar of mustard but i'll be trying the Pale Ale & Honey Spice after that. that's cool stuff, maynard.

Pizza can be quite healthy. It's a fairly balanced meal... unless you don't get greenage on it...
Carribeanpenguin
yes yes...I recently graduated from either only cheese or only cheese and pepperoni to ... 'stuffed with spinach'...

Spinach = green ... mmm
HappyScout
White pizza with spinach and anchovies!

Now THAT sounds like one serious sandwich! (Or, at the very least, a serious sandwich-maker!)

: )

* Appreciating Michelle's attention to detail ... and hoping that if we are ever in the same vicinity, in proximity to just the right fixin's, she will make me a samwich!! *

My favorite restaurant (here) opens again today after a month's hiatus into the lands of 'non-tourist season slumber'...so tonight, I dine Italian!
bethany
I snuck into the dining hall because it was orientation. I had a bagel and a cookie. Much like the days when I lived oncampus, come to think of it....
Carribeanpenguin
Anyone ever dive back into the good ole pre/grade school and camp days?...

I had beanie weenies. tongue.gif

I like your taste in taste.

I'm looking forward to a serious sandwich for lunch. Sounds boring, I assure you its not. cool.gif

By the way, its lunch time here, 12:05

Have a nice evening.

Lots of creamy peanut butter and a little Nuttella on organic nine grain brain with mango chunks on top.
Orange Peel
Here we go with the mango again.

Actually, I had mango juice yesterday and I must say it was tantilising for my tastebuds. Mmmmm.....mango juice. biggrin.gif
