I had polenta with a med style veg stew.

I've never had polenta before, it was very very meh when tasted on it's own. So much so I nearly left it off the plate to just have the veg. But with the rich and slightly spicy sauce it was fab. Really really nice lunch.

My father-in-law came over for lunch, so my husband made sourdough rye bread and celeriac-carrot soup. I was in charge of sweets and chose to make an apple tart with lots of cinnamon.

Chicken nugget (so sue me, I'd no "real" chicken defrosted) salad with southwest yoghurt dressing and toasted seeds.

Half a wrap with a fried egg, pesto, tuna, tomatoes and mayo. It was very very nom. :cool:

Went to Fallons of Kilcullen for Sunday lunch and enjoyed it immensely. My favourite was the starter, a goat's cheese salad with butternut squash, rocket, beetroot jam and candied peanuts. The main was solid, a roast chicken breast with mash, red cabbage and gravy, and dessert was a brownie with a selection of homemade ice-creams. Didn't need another meal today!

^^ Love this place.

I had a paella from Marks and Spencers. My mother bought it for me when she was there the other day. It was not great. It read super bland. I wouldn't get it again.

Another special from 147 Deli, a pulled pork bap with chipotle slaw and jalapeno mayo. Twas seeeerious

Chicken tikka wrap. Delicious it was.

I'm obsessed with wraps lately, they are so tasty and quick.

Toasted pitta with some kind of chilli hummous from Tesco. Lazy goodness.

Dial Hard

Took the dog out for a good hour-long walk earlier and came back starving and frozen, so I had a very bold lunch of a pumpkin-seed roll with peppered salami, melted emmenthal, spinach, onions and a warm egg, with a side of skinny oven chips. I regret nothing!

Tilly

Toasted ham and chilli cheese sambo.

Kovu

Chilli halloumi and a fried duck egg. I adore duck eggs, so much more yolk!

Dizzyblonde

A big bowl of roasted vegetable soup and a toasted cheese sandwich.

Homemade chicken stew.

Just perfect for the cold weather out there.

left over chicken and mushroom bake

Avocado and poached eggs on toast. I very much wanted to like it but the avocado was just too sweet, even with salt

Fried sweet pepper and onion with garlic and herbs and some tomato puree, on a wrap with mozzarella. Toasted. Simple quick and nommy.

My version of imam baylidi with a bit of yoghurt on top, some grilled halloumi and pita bread.

Very satisfying, and I could pretend for a moment that it was sunny and warm outside...

Dial Hard

A cheese, ham, tomato and pine nut frittata, made with the amazing eggs I've started having delivered from the allotments near my house

MissFlitworth

A tuna melt that must have weight a kilo. With inexplicable greek salad thrown into it. Nice but odd.

beertons

Posh toasted ham and cheese sambos. One had parma ham, the other, a kind of salami. Leftovers from an antipasti I bought yesterday at the farmers market. Had a few chilli olives on the side too.

Mrs Fox

Summer rolls on this durtty durtty day...

Beef cheek for lunch.

First attempt a beef cheek and I was well happy with the results. Yum

I had the muscle builder salad in 37 West in Galway City and sweet mother it was the nicest salad I've ever had.

This isn't my picture. It's one from their Facebook but this was the meal I chose.



The salad dressing was unreal.

Shenshen

We had charity lunches at work, and I had brought in black bean burritos, with tomato chili salsa and some sour cream. Very, very yummy indeed, but unfortunately it looks a right dog's dinner on a photo

Mrs Fox

Fig, feta, beetroot, walnut and rocket salad, simply dressed with white balsamic and olive oil.
