What have you had for lunch lately?

[Kaneohegirlinaz]

I wanted just something small for lunch today, we had a big brunch and I have big plans for dinner... I went freezer diving and came up with a container of my homemade Chicken Enchilada Soup.

Very tasty, but WHOWEEE! That's spicy!
I couldn't remember this recipe and looked it up ... I had made a note "DO NOT add the entire Jalapeno Pepper-too hot!"

Good though!
My sinuses have been acting up, well! That took care of that!

Today I'm having salmon pasta salad using the lentil pasta and also I threw in onions and garbanzo beans. Additionally, I made soup -- it's a blender soup with cauliflower and arugala. Was supposed to have watercress, but couldn't find any locally.

Had Poutine. French fries with cheese curds and gravy. Couple of plain hot dogs with mustard and ketchup (no buns).

Tomorrow when I get back from hospital having sutures removed think my lunch will be....

Did a standard Swede today and grabbed a grilled sausages, with bread, ketchup, strong mustard and fried onion and a chips/crisp package and coke. Not the best but I wasnt home and it is quick and warm.

I went grocery shopping for my Mother as well a few items for our house and found this

Mom requests frozen meal to make it easier for her.
I thought she's like this, but guess what?
I was so hungry when I got back, I had for lunch I added a dollop of sour cream and it wasn't half bad really... it looked like hell, but it did the trick.
It was $3.14 for a 10 ounce portion, small for me, but just right for Mom... I'll get it again.

"...it looked like hell..." Well THAT'S a ringing endorsement, @Kaneohegirlinaz!

It didn't look ANYTHING like the picture on the box, but what ever does.
I should have taken a photo of it, but that "dollop of daisy" kinda made it look worse, but was tasty.
Maybe I should just make a batch of ground beef stroganoff myself ...

Egg Salad!

Egg Salad!

Looks wonderful, @Kathleen! Do you ever do a Curried Egg Salad? I have a 1930's recipe from "Afternoon Tea" at the Hotel Del Coronado (Sandy Eggo, CA). It is a great recipe, but calls for way too much salt!

 

[dragnlaw]

I have sprinkeled a bit of curry powder into my eggs for a long time now.

DH's lunch, he loves this stuff (my Father turned him on to this dish) ...

Canned Sardines a top steamed White Rice, Chopped Sweet White Onions, Furikake and a goodly amount of Aloha Brand Shoyu ...
I took a hard pass!

I like sardines, @Kaneohegirlinaz!

It's a simple recipe, @GinnyPNW . Lots of room to add things, but I would love your curried recipe. I especially love old recipes.

On it, @Kathleen! Just got to figure out a format to PM it to you. Check you inbox, as they say?

Have been enjoying something I'd forgotten about from my much younger years...a cup of chicken bouillon with pieces of chopped Swiss cheese in it. Love it and have been eating this for lunch the last month or so. Love what the warm/hot bouillon does to the cheese. Yummy to me. A handful of cherry or grape tomatoes on the side. That's all I've needed.

Using up leftovers today so I had Bubble and Squeak. No, I'm not British but it is a pretty good way to use up some random bits of vegetables and meat.

 

[Cooking Goddess]

@emilymh2018 Bubble and Squeek is also Colonial food - granted by way of the British. We had it ages ago at Chownings Tavern during our first trip to Colonial Williamsburg.

Try this: Curried Egg Sandwiches - not as pretty as the original, but a way to post here.

That sounds great! Thank you, GinnyPNW!

I experimented today since I had some dumpling dough leftover from our chicken and dumplings. I heated up my usual chicken broth to a near nuclear temperature, then added some bits of the dumpling dough, pressed flat in my palm, into the broth. WOW! Chicken broth with dumplings. Loved it!
