Since the dish is likely influenced by the fact she grew up in California, we bet it's a regular on Prince Harry and Meghan's daily menu! Speaking of California, she told EyeSwoon: "And the diet tends to be healthier as well – acai bowls, green juices, chopped salads, perfect sushi, grilled fish tacos….those are all things that make me think of home."
Lunch
Zara Tindall's burgers
Mike Tindall described Zara as "an awesome cook"
Down-to-earth Zara Tindall is an impressive cook, according to her husband Mike. Speaking of the Olympian, he told The Guardian in 2007: "I won't lie, my girlfriend Zara does all the cooking in the house. She's an awesome cook. She doesn't have a speciality, she's very good generally and can do a lot of fancy stuff."
While she loves quick meals like eggs and toast for lunch, the family also tucked into some tasty burgers recently.
Sharing a photo of cheeseburgers made with a kit from London restaurant Mac & Wild, Mike said: "Trying the @macandwild build yours at home and pretty happy with how they look!!! Get in my belly!!"
The Queen's crustless sandwiches
The Queen tends to choose either a plate of fish and vegetables or sandwiches at lunchtime.
The Queen loves crustless tuna and cucumber sandwiches
Former royal chef, Darren McGrady, told House and Garden that a typical lunch for the Queen would be Dover sole on a bed of wilted spinach, while her favourite sandwich filling is said to be tuna mayo with cucumber – without the crusts, of course!

Known for his culinary flair, Prince Philip regularly creates tasty supper snacks for himself and the Queen. In the book Dinner at Buckingham Palace, former royal footman Charles Oliver wrote: "The Prince is also adept at producing quick, light supper snacks, which he and the Queen often enjoy after they have dismissed the servants for the night.
"Dishes include scrambled eggs and smoked haddock, mushrooms sautéed in butter with bacon, Scotch woodcock (scrambled eggs with anchovies on toast) with mushrooms, and omelette with bacon."

The Queen and Prince William are both chocoholics!
Loved by both the Queen and Prince William, who chose it as his royal wedding to Kate, Darren said: "The chocolate biscuit cake is the only cake that goes up to the royal table every day until it has all gone – sometimes this means it follows her to Windsor Castle for the weekend."
