Read that as a Mars Bar curried sweet potato soup and was ever so intrigued

So did I!

Maple + mustard chicken wings, and slaw.

Merkin · 14-03-2015 08:00PM

Both look absolutely scrumptious Mrs. Fox. Could I have the recipe for both please?

For the wings I used this recipe, which also works great for thighs.
For the slaw I just thinly sliced red cabbage, carrot, green apple, celery, spring onion. Dressing consists of a tbsp of mayo, a tsp of wholegrain mustard, squeeze of lemon, a bit of cider vinegar, bit of salt & sugar. Mix all and mix into veg.

You're welcome. Any sign of a baby yet?

Mrs Fox · 16-03-2015 01:21PM

Spicy Tom Kha soup hit the right spot.

Mrs Fox · 18-03-2015 02:52PM

Maple mustard chicken, radish, cucumber, baby plum tomatoes, gem lettuce with mustard dressing.

Gloomtastic! · 18-03-2015 03:45PM

Mushrooms on toast sprinkled with parsley and chilli flakes.

Mrs Fox · 20-03-2015 03:08PM

Chickpea feta and other stuff salad, simply dressed with a squeeze of lemon.

Gloomtastic! · 20-03-2015 05:00PM

Nothing yet! But we've Coca Cola Chicken Wings for dinner so maybe it's for the best....

Dizzyblonde · 21-03-2015 05:31PM

Home made chicken soup with brown soda bread. On the patio because it was so warm and sunny

heldel00 · 21-03-2015 05:33PM

Tayto sammidge. It was delish!!!

Pang · 21-03-2015 07:52PM

Crab cake bap with coleslaw and rocket, so yum!

MissFlitworth · 21-03-2015 08:02PM

Smoked salmon, scrambled eggs with a rake of black pepper, ripe, butter avocado & toasted home made brown bread. Oh I nearly died after.

the beer revolu · 23-03-2015 07:44PM

Fried potatoes, a little bit of leftover home cooked ham and wild garlic leaves.

MissFlitworth · 26-03-2015 01:52PM

Leftover jambalaya. Looks a little anaemic but packed full of flavour. I do believe I shall be having more leftover jambalaya for lunch tomorrow as my co-dinner-eater was very subtly not pushed (Walked into kitchen to shout of "Eh - everything in this pot is burnt already" while they agitated my poor, poor blackened peppers and onions and rice violently with a serving spoon. As though trying to whip them into stiff peaks)

kylith · 26-03-2015 02:06PM

Roast beef, coleslaw and pickle on a brown bap and a jambon. I love jambons.

Oblomov · 26-03-2015 03:12PM

My apologies for contravention of the threads ethos.

I can assure this will not happen again.

Faith · 26-03-2015 03:38PM

Oblomov, when posting pictures of restaurant meals, it would be very helpful to describe what exactly each dish is, and give the name of the restaurant and the location. Pretty pictures are great, but not very useful to this thread if they don't offer some kind of inspiration to the other posters. This isn't a food porn thread

Oblomov · 26-03-2015 06:22PM

Sww my above comments.
.

Faith · 26-03-2015 06:54PM

And the name and location of the restaurant?

Oblomov · 26-03-2015 07:42PM

It would appear we have different points of view, again, if this has caused any friction. I apologise.

I would have preferred a PM if there was any problems with the post. I like to think I learn from my mistakes.

Faith · 26-03-2015 07:59PM

I didn't see that you'd edited your post, and regardless, there's no need to be so rude when I'm simply asking you for information.

This thread is designed to inspire others and to share lunch ideas. Pictures of mysterious unidentifiable food from a restaurant that most of us could never afford is not in line with the point of the thread. Nonetheless, I was happy to leave the pictures there as perhaps they could inspire the more adventurous cooks amongst us - but they serve no purpose unless we at least know what the picture is of.

Anyway, let's let the thread back on topic now.

5star02707 · 26-03-2015 08:01PM

sweet and sour chicken with fried rice

kylith · 27-03-2015 09:16AM

Savoury mince and the last of my homemade bread.

Mrs Fox · 27-03-2015 02:27PM

Smoked salmon, courgette noodles, plumtomatoes, squeeze of lemon.

kylith · 30-03-2015 01:13PM

A stew of leftover ham hock, red lentils, green lentils, and pearl barley. Looks like dishwater, tastes delish. I think I'll beef up the rest of it with some more carrots and peas when I get home.

MissFlitworth · 30-03-2015 01:42PM

A pastrami & swiss cheese sandwich from Café Sol. Man, their sandwiches are unnervingly good for premade box jobs. Good bread, no sogginess, fillings that actually taste like they're supposed to and not a waxy pastiche of cheese & pastrami. Full on sad when it was over.

Mars Bar · 30-03-2015 01:51PM

I've never had butternut squash before so I picked one up today in the supermarket and made a BNS and sweet potato soup with some carrot, onion, garlic and chilli powder. It's so yummy! It's just as well I liked it or I'd be well peed off after the effort of cutting the BNS.
