What have you eaten today? Part 2

[AwkwardSquad]

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.

IJumped it's good that you managed to eat some pasta! Roll on the crisp sandwich!
I outdid myself in greed yesterday:
B: 5am, fruit and fibre, banana and milk, toasted bagel with marmite, black coffee; 8am, toast and marmite, black coffee.
Mid-morning: small cappuccino, slice of fruit loaf toasted with butter.
L: leftover dhal, cauliflower and nan, lime pickle.
Supper: cod and haricot stew, Savoy cabbage, couple of bits of sourdough baguette. Plum crumble and cream, tea, two Hotel Chocolat milk chocolate covered hazelnuts (gift from supper guests, so good!).

@IJumpedAboardAPirateShip wishing you a speedy crisp sandwich recovery, I hope it’s not too long before you can eat solid foods again! (The pistachio ice cream sounds delicious though!)

@Bloodybridget your food diary sounds delicious! I hope you have another good food day today!

BloodyBridget that all sounds delicious and will hopefully give you some energy to carry you though your final round of chemo - wishing you strength and fortitude!

Thanks very much Phycalelic and AwkwardSquad!

@mogloveseggs Had never heard of canarian potatoes, so looked them up. Intriguing! Are they very salty tasting?

Didn’t actually eat the roll and lemon curd with the rice and stew... that would be weird.

A pear
Few bites of toddler's toast with honey

Felt a bit sick this morning so no breakfast.
Banana during my break at work.

Dinner - Small portion of chilli con carne. Tried a new recipe which wasn't very nice!
Have just had a custard doughnut.

@AwkwardSquad actually no they weren't too salty. Nice yellow waxy potatoes with a taste a bit like Patatas bravas but not spicy.

Dinner ended up being a few fries, veg paella, and cauliflower cheese. Mini cheesecake and a baked apple with vanilla ice cream for pud

@mogloveseggs I absolutely love Canarian potatoes! Had them once, years ago, and never knew the name of them but now I’ve discovered it it’s definitely on my meal plans for next week! Thank you!

@AwkwardSquad I really did read it that you had eaten the roll and lemon curd with the meal!

@onlyhereforthefood the soup sounds great! I can’t wait for pumpkin goodies during the week, pepitas are my favourite!
