As I recent convert from the dark side, the one thing I really miss from the sw forum was that they had a thread for whats for dinner (there is already one on here) and one for lunch. I used to really like looking at these for some ideas for my meals without having to go right through the food diaries..they were just a quick post without too much chat that you could do a quick scan through. So thought I'd start this tonight for tomorrow and see if anyone uses/likes this.. I like to keep more points for the evenings so I struggle doing low point lunches so I'd like some more inspiration.. Hope someone else like the idea x

Today I had the yummy chorizo and orzo soup from the ww mag a couple of months ago. I make a huge double batch. It's 4 pp a serving but I have 2 servings at a time to keep me going. It freezes well so I freeze it in portion sizes.

I bought some wraps the other day & having fun deciding what to put in them! My latest favourite, and what I had today, is lettuce/cherry tomatoes with retried beans and low fat cheese (oh and I added some jalapeños that I had leftover from my tortilla pizza I made last night!).

a totally UNINSPIRING tesco sandwich (not sure how many pp yet!), and walkers ready salted (5pp)

Got 44 pp to burn every day and I'm finding it kinda hard without resorting to stuff like this

...ok so the sandwich wasn't that easy to point..

The stuff on the back was per 100g. the info on the front was per pack, and the numbers didn't match. worked out that it was very roughly 150g in the sandwich (going by the difference in calories in the "pack" and in 100g)

100g was 6pp, so I gave it 10pp just to be sure!

what a hash!

I also had an SF jelly (0pp for a little pot) and a bottle of coke zero (0pp)

I hate when they only have NI per 100g then don't tell you how much the sandwich weighs!!

I had a bowl of spicy parsnip soup (3PP), two slices WW bread (3PP) toasted with extra light Philadelphia (1PP) and a couple of green jalapeños for extra taste

The healthy eating sandwiches in Tesco have the pro points on them, though probably not much use to you if you are trying to get through some more points What sandwich was it? It might be in my eating out book.
