What did you eat for lunch?

Simple thread: what did you eat for lunch today? Salad and water? Tirkey sandwich and a V8? Or maybe you had a quart of Ben and Jerry's? This thread is for all the things that fill your belly mid day.

I myself put some had pork salad (left over pork from last night into a salad with romaine lettuce, celery, balsamic vinaigrette, pepper, and pine nuts), a pomegranate, and a tall glass of iced tea. Best lunch in days.

I had a peanut butter and jam sandwich on whole wheat. The jam is from a local organic farm, made with their own organic strawberries. I'm a jam snob. I'm also a coffee snob--the sandwich was paired with a medium roast organic fair trade shade-grown coffee from Honduras. Snooty.

Oh sweet: PBJ! A classic, even with the organic twist. I've had real Honduran coffee before. It has magnificently dangerous amounts of caffeine. Copious, even. I got it from a Honduran, though.

Most days I don't eat lunch. I opt for happy hour food at like 4. Wings, pizza, buffalo chicken fingers...


Then a late dinner.

Awesome thread.

I totally had a turkey wrap: a whole-wheat tortilla, deli turkey, pea sprouts, hoisin sauce, and sweet chilli sauce. I kept it simple...but delicious!

I washed this down with a rather large loose-leaf green tea.

Breakfast for lunch. Take-out. scrambled eggs, wheat toast, two pancakes, a sausage link, two pieces of bacon, hash browns. All for $7.00! After a week of eating well, and exercising it felt good.

Cheesecake Factory. Which is a really freaky place, actually. I'd never been.
I had a wonderfully fluffy ham, cheese, spinach and green onion omlette, sliced tomatoes and one half of a slice of whole wheat bread with strawberry jam. I didn't finish the eggs but the spinach was so fresh I ate it all with the tomatoes. What a great idea to offer instead of "breakfast potatoes."

I didn't actually have lunch today...

When I got back into my neighborhood late this afternoon, I picked up the chicken breast combo at Pollo Tropical with a side of balsamic tomatoes and came home and made a Bloody Mary to go with it. Worked for me. Kind of a lunch/dinner thing with benefits.

Linner, perhaps you could call it.

Today's Lunch was Indian... tandoori chicken, naan bread, some spicy green bean thing and some peas in curry thing (no idea what these things were called they just looked good so I ordered them).

This was at one of my favourite places to eat lunch. Sadly, we are moving offices on Wednesday and I will no longer be able to eat here whenever I please.

For the last 11 years, it's been a turkey and cheese sandwich with mayo on toasted bread. Every day of work. I couldn't take it anymore, but can't afford to buy lunch that much and other things required too much effort. So now...

Frozen Kashi meals. I know, doesn't sound tasty, but I have Lemongrass Coconut Chicken with 7 grain rice pilaf and veggies, and I swear to you, it tastes GOOD! Several other varieties, but this one is my fave. And it's actually good for me!!
