Salad with grilled chicken.

I can't list the 17 different things that are in my salad.

---

 17 different things in any salad is overkill.

---

 Maybe it was 16  😉

 

I like variety and variety is good for you..

 

Let me think what I had. Field greens, spinach,  tomato , cucumber, feta, olives, artichokes, radishes sunflower seeds, hard boiled egg, chicken, peppers, black beans, olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

 

Maybe I missed something?

 

Not sure how many things that is..🤷

---

 I would have left out the field greens (whatever they are) spinach, feta, artichokes, seeds, eggs, chicken and black beans.

Added onions, grapes, apples and swapped the vinegar for a thicker balsamic glaze, and served the chicken on the side.

---

 Thats basically chicken with a side of fruit. 

 

Field greens are just some kind of lettuce.

 

I was at salad bar and I like to graze on a little of everything.

---

 We call greens veg, like peas, green beans etc.

Definitely include lettuce, but I prefer rocket, it has a stronger taste.

Field greens are much like rocket or arugula.

Differences in language...you say you speak English, but you really don't.

Seeing as Meghan Markle is flogging jam I thought I would make some.

You need a two pound bag of sugar to make jam!!

Bloody hell, need a set of wallies too!!

😮

Southern fried chicken, coleslaw (both homemade) with sweetcorn and jacket spuds.  

Roast chicken sarnies followed by peaches and vanilla ice-cream.

 Your roast chicken prompted me to defrost some chicken breasts that have been in the freezer since last November.

So it's's roast chicken and salad for tea.

 Mine was out the freezer too. I buy breast fillets, cook a batch of them then freeze individually. So my tea was simply a matter of previously defrosting a large fillet / buttering some bread / scooping out some ice-cream…the less time spent in the kitchen the better.

 Sounds easy and very tasty.

My chicken has yet to be cooked, I will roast it around 7 and eat around 8...we are not early eaters here.

Trying to keep my protein intake up so had scrambled eggs (with grated cheese and onions mixed in) on toast. I'm not a big lover of eggs so it felt more a necessity rather than a preference. Followed by some caramel shortcake bites as a reward for good behaviour.

 I know that, hence the eggs. 

Poached salmon and salad...rocket, tomato, onion, red pepper, red grapes, olives, oil and balsamic glaze.
 
I had a huge cream tea for lunch, I was going to take a pic, (like Maddog does) but I had eaten half of it before I remembered.

 Now, put some cottage cheese (1/2-1 cup) in those eggs, because even 4 eggs isn't enough protein for one meal..

Both your lunch and tea sound delicious, got me craving a cream tea now
