What's for lunch (2026)

The last of the Peruvian chicken — thankfully a lil of that magic aji verde is left for future dipping needs :sweat_smile:

Technically breakfast, as it was my first meal of the day following a creaky PT sesh, but it felt… lunchy. My PIC even claimed that this was more of a dinner than lunch bc I dared add cukes & buttermilk ranch to have something green on the side :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Same salad as last night but with tofu for the protein factor.

Same pizza as last night here, too, as we had two slices leftover! Just as enjoyable as yesterday :slight_smile:

Leftover pizza tastes great although I admit I’ve only had the leftovers for lunch or dinner. When I was in high school my friend’s mom used to love leftover pizza for breakfast.

My PIC, like many other misguided souls (bless their hearts!) thinks cold pizza straight out of the fridge is good eats. Blasphemy!

A pizza that doesn’t immediately singe your tastebuds & burns the roof of your mouf is not worthy of my attention. The cold, coagulated cheese alone is a total turn-off.

And why? An air-fryer will get you there in under 5 minutes.

I LOVE cold pizza and hot coffee – maybe its a guy thing??

I think it comes down to personal preference, like most everything. I don’t like to eat anything with my coffee, TBH — def not in the morning, when I don’t tend to be hungry for several hours.

My afternoon cuppa, OTOH, is more often than not augmented with a lil cookie :slight_smile:

Joining the pizza party, this is a small one, about 7”. Hot Italian seasoning on the base with a little evoo, basil leaves, mozzarella, pecorino and cherry tomatoes. Arugula salad on the side.

A more traditional frittata this time (as opposed to last week’s pasta frittata), with shredded potato, prosciutto, asparagus, and kaseri.

Frittata is another dish that works well at room temperature or even cold from the fridge.

Frittata is also good in a sandwich the next day :slight_smile:

Def room temp. Heating up cooked eggs is tricky.

Tuna and egg salad, cheese, tomato and horseradish on a kimmelweck roll.

Pre-rehearsal sustenance: toasted bistro bread, shmear, celebration ham, havarti. And half a Cosmic Crisp apple my PIC cut up for me :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Please to ignore the cat tunnel and scratching post in the background. Our household is solidly in our feline overlords’ control.
