So what are you having for lunch today?


As for me in an attempt to eat healthier (and cheaper) I bought myself a cheap little bento box and am trying to bring healthy food to work.



 
grilled chicken strips w/ lots of garlic and pepper, some steamfresh sweet corn, and brown rice. Big glass of water with a lemonade flavor-packet mixed in. Same thing, 4 out of the 5 works days of the week. Losing an average of 5 lbs a week? Worth it.

air. it's what's for dinner!

Well, either that or leftover hotdogs.
 
W

Wasabi Poptart

Probably a turkey sammich with lettuce, tomato, pepper jack cheese and mayo plus some baby carrots on the side.
 
Haven't eaten lunch yet. It was a late morning.
But I don't have much food in the house, so it'll probably be raw carrots and broccoli like yesterday and the day before.

On the bright side, my borderline-poverty is forcing me to eat healthier.

Had tacos that were not damned by God nor any other being... I hope. Hylian, what in the name of hell is in that box anyway? Some kind of noodle dish... radishes maybe ... and ....... I got nothing. It's a weird picture.
 
I judged a chili cookoff once, the head judge dropped the line about... "Anyone that knows beans about Texas Chili, knows there's no beans in Texas Chili."

I had to interrupt and say, "My Dad, 3 uncles, and Grand Father were all working Texas Cowboys... They put beans in their chili."

I made the beans in case I screw up the chili. Or to add them together to stretch my budget.

Chili is pretty damned good.

Chili is one of the most lovely little pleasures on a cool day. ^_^ Or a warm day when I'm in the comfort of an air-conditioned room. It's a joy to make and to share... especially if there's cornbread.

Some leftover pasta
Cottage Cheese
Purple carrot (cut up)
Radishes
Curly Kale (the green stuff acting as a divider)


*edit*

And I just finished up making my lunch for tomorrow.





Sho-yu Tamago (soy sauce eggs)
Cheddar cheese
Curly Kale
Purple Carrot
Breaded fish stick
Yogurt
 
I guess some simple salad action, if my brother doesn't have luch with me. If he does, maybe some rice or pasta and something egg based, as I have almost nothing else in the refrigerator.
 
Same thing as yesterday...in fact, I have the same thing for lunch every day of the business week except for Wednesday.

Have you ever had tea-marbled eggs? They're very similar to this. I think i'm going to make some this weekend

I wish I could find a good Pho restaurant. Who knew that it would be easier to get good pho in Vancouver than Beijing.
I went to a pho restaurant a few years ago with my last wife. We used to live in Houston, and were rather spoiled by how many good noodle, soup, and dumpling houses from various cultures could be found there. So, I found this little pho restaurant and took here there for her birthday.

I was shocked at how many different ways there were to prepare tripe. The menu had only 15 items--and all of them contained tripe! Tripe soup, tripe with steamed vegetables, dumplings with tripe.

We ended up eating at red lobster. D:
 
they're really good...tea, soy sauce and star anise. They get just enough flavor that you don't have to do anything but eat them

Ooooohhhhh, Amy, you're making me hungry for sushi! Might have to get me some salmon and escolar this weekend.
 
A bunch of plums from my garden. :D They're delicous. And later this month we'll have blackberries and grapes too.

I love my garden.
 
I've been hungry for sushi for weeks now and I finally have time to get some this week.

Time to put out the clarion call for companionship.
 
leftover bison roast (cold)
italian bread from what wal-mart bakery
slice of cheddar cheese
lettuce
southwestern mustard
