Slightly off the topic, but here is today's lunch:
Baby kale/spring mix salad with cherry tomatoes, flank steak slices, olive oil, and blue cheese.

Tonight's Dinner:
Protein: Chicken Breast w/ Montreal Seasoning
Cooked Veggie: Asparagus (cooked with Cocunut Oil)
Raw Veggie: Spinach, Arugula, Carrot, Pepper Salad
Starch: Butternut Squash w/ butter, cinnamon, salt
Prep & Cook Time: 1hr 20min (all about the Squash... super slow but so yummy) everything else ~15min
FYI: My cooking skills on a scale of 0-10, I'm maybe a 2 (I'm a lousy cook... but I'm trying to Thrive)
@William Trask, that looks great! So long as you enjoy what you're eating, you're a great cook 
Tonight I made soup for dinners for the next four nights. It's a chicken chowder--
Vegetables: carrots, celery, and onion
Starch: red potatoes
Protein: shredded chicken (I made some in advance and had it in the freezer ready to go).
Thickened with cream and potato starch.
While it's not Dinner, here is a lunch I'm trying:
Fat: 1/4 Avocado & Salad Dressing
Protein: Sardines
Veggie: Mixed Greens Salad with Pepers
Starch: Fresh Peach
Side note: I've never ate sardines and from what I heard they are gross (acquired taste). I admit I didn't really want to try them, but understand they are a great source for DHA/EPA/Omega3. To my surprise the marinara these were soaked in made the taste unremarkable (not horrible nor not my favorite food, just a neutral meat flavor). Only weird part was pulling out the spinal cord and vertebra from the sardine!

William, I have your solution! No need to pull out the bones! Just eat it all. Good source of nutrients. 
@Douglas Wadle Yeah... I debated doing that. Wasn't up for it.
As for Tonight's Dinner:
Protein: Chicken Breast
Cooked Veggie: Brussle Sprouts, Carrots
Starch: Squash Chips
Dinner: Deer meatballs slow cooked in a crock pot with an egg, chili pepper, gelatin flakes, sea salt and pepper. Brussel sprouts and broccoli were roasted in bison bone broth. White rice.
Wow amazing! I love seeing all these delicious food posts. Keep the inspiration coming!
Nice seeing what others are preparing on here...
I guess there are a few lunch pics on here so I'll share mine. Pretty basic, not always exciting, but 3 days done.
Chicken, rice, salad.
Salad picked in backyard with my 5 yr old helper this morning (broccoli, kale, squash, wild purslane).
Other additions (sardines, or hard boiled eggs will be added to the protein, olive oil and lemon to salad, rice vinegar to the cold starch).
Rice with gomasio and olive oil
(Organic) chicken cooked with rice flour and beer + spices
Spinach with olive oil and colored salt
@Ryan Bailey, how's that chicken cooked? Looks like maybe a yellow curry?
@Fabio Genesoni, I didn't know what gomasio is, so I looked it up and it sounds great! I think I've made something similar and dipped tea smoked eggs into it. Looking forward to buying some and trying on other items.
Pretty basic, splash of homemade concentrated chicken broth, just slow cooker in addition with a venison loin. White Rice was cooked with chicken broth.
@Julia
Yes, it tastes good. I use it on basmati rice, but I think it's good on many other dishes.
I've gotten the impression that no one here likes lurkers, so this is my hello! Rice, brocolli, and pork with a lot of red chili.
Lunch is usually more colorful and exciting.
looks great , nice food
Today's lunch. Butternut squash with rosemarie, rice, chickenmeatballs and cucumber radiccio salad with yoghurt dressing.
I love the food posts as well- Keep posting guys
That looks fantastic, @Jan Dochnal! Could you share the recipe for the salad?
Looks like its recipe sharing time!
Hey @Julia Quigley, a few days ago i bought radicchio for the first time in my life. So the salad was more of an accidental product . But here is what i mixed together:
I realy liked it and think I'm going to eat it more often. In a thuna-rice-salad radicchio seems to fit in well too.
Tonight's Dinner prepared by my wife:
Protein: Steak
Cooked Veggie: Broccoli
Starch: Couscous + Cranberries
Loving these delicious food posts!!!
