Iranian potato omelette sounds intriguing. I’ve had a vegan version of an Iranian omelette called kuku, lots and lots of herbs, I wonder if it was along similar lines?

B - muesli, rhubarb, yoghurt
L - beetroot salad, feta, walnuts; apple; two oat and molasses cookies
Apple
Low alcohol beer and rosemary crackers
D - four beetroot falafel, rocket, herb yoghurt (was supposed to be in a wrap but the wraps had gone weird from being in the freezer too long); cherries
Now having a few chocolate covered raspberry marshmallows

cheeseismyspiritanimal · 16/08/2019 19:26

B - baked oats with raspberries. Coffee.
L - butternut squash soup with a toasted English muffin with butter.
Afternoon - satsuma and cup of tea.
D - homemade Thai green curry and a glass of red wine.

Nuttyaboutnutella · 16/08/2019 19:27

Getting lots of lovely ideas on this thread!

B: Greek yoghurt with mango, raspberries and apricots
L: jacket potato with prawn mayonnaise, green beans on the side. Mini chocolate oat cookie.
D: penne pasta with tomato and basil sauce (with lots of hidden added veggies), salad and garlic bread

Weather is rubbish so going to have a hot chocolate later

RebeccaWrongDaily · 16/08/2019 20:33

coffee and a slice of brown toast with mushrooms on and a grilled tomato.
ham with salad and an apple for lunch
dinner was roast pork, mash, carrots, brocolli, cheesy leeks, green beans and gravy.

Greensleeves · 16/08/2019 20:37

Brunch: tuna mayo seeded wrap and a granny smith. Would usually eat a proper breakfast and lunch but didn't manage to get it together this morning.

Dinner: huge bowl of spicy butternut and parsnip soup with another seeded wrap filled with coleslaw and sweetcorn

I enjoyed it, but I made spicy breaded chicken legs and chips for everyone else so felt a bit rueful eating my soup. But I am losing weight, so it's all good.

Sarahlou63 · 16/08/2019 21:29

B : Carrot, spinach, beetroot, apple, raspberry & red fruit juice smoothie

L : 2 hard boiled eggs with mayo

D : Roasted cauliflower rice with olive oil and lots of black pepper, sauteed onions, spinach and peas.

Tomorrow I'm mainly eating chocolate. The above is way too heathly.

Bloodybridget · 17/08/2019 03:48

AwkwardSquad it was a kuku. How was your vegan kuku made without eggs? I think the herb one is called sabzi kuku.

Mileysmiley · 17/08/2019 03:49

I have eaten a load of rubbish ... too much chocolate and cans of coke!

AwkwardSquad · 17/08/2019 06:28

I think it involves chickpea flour, Bloodybridget, with nutritional yeast as one of the other ingredients to give it some savoury depth. It’s from a Sunday market - the stall-holder makes several flavours, including the herb one. Really tasty.

Bloodybridget · 17/08/2019 07:37

Cheers Awkward!) Maybe they use chickpea water too, aquafava, that's supposed to be an egg substitute.

AwkwardSquad · 17/08/2019 17:48

So far today:
B - muesli, rhubarb, yoghurt
L - egg mayo on toasted roll, with salad
Four plums and two oat molasses cookies
