Shiny new thread, continuing from here

A diary thread for our daily meals, to record, share, glean menu inspiration and chat, but no judging each other’s food choices.

B: bowl of berry granola with yoghurt
L: a prawn and grains and beans salad from M&S (nicer than it sounds), then later a plate of chips
D: vegetarian chilli with chick peas instead of kidney beans (because we didn't have any kidney beans), rice. Didn't get to eat it all because I got up to get DC a spoon and the cat was touching it
Just now: 2 crumpets, 1 with cheese on
Mid-afternoon: large choc chip cookie

Slightly made up for yesterday when I didn't get to eat anything after breakfast. Am back at work again tomorrow and hoping for a better day with time to eat, because I feel like death today.

Breakfast - porridge with raspberries

Lunch - a slice of marmalade on toast, a lemon fool and some more raspberries

Dinner - butternut squash and red pepper soup with crusty tiger bread and a small piece of chocolate fudge cake with pouring cream.

Snack - nature valley peanut sandwich bar.

I have leftover soup and no fridge or freezer until next week... will it be ok to eat tomorrow or would you get rid of it? Such a shame to throw food away if it’s the latter.
