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.

Barbed and Nutty such a beautiful country. We used to go there a lot when I was younger, but I hadn't been for ages. We went to the north, Llangollen was the place with the amazing chips!! I still keep thinking about them!!

Today was a bit less interesting:
B - pancakes with raspberries and yogurt
L - oatcakes with brie, an apple, slice of gingerbread
D - sort of stir fry with lemongrass and ginger noodles, broccoli, spring onions, carrots and salmon in a honey, orange and soy sauce marinade. And some spring rolls. And I may have sneaked some trick or treat sweets...

I'm having a bit of a sad day today and my appetite goes down hill big time!

B- apple and cinnamon porridge pot
L- vanilla skyr yoghurt, mini gingerbread man
D- cottage pie and veg
S- a few halloween sweets

Still more than many of you eat in a day!

Sympathy, @onlyhereforthefood, treat yourself kindly and hope your mood lifts again before too long. Early night and a hot water bottle?

Breakfast - 2 x warm croissants with butter and jam with coffee.

Then went to the cinema with DC and friends to watch the Addams family and had a bag of maltesers, a handful (or 3) of popcorn and a flask of juice.

Lunch - out for a pub lunch and had a Brie and chilli jam buttermilk fried chicken burger with chips and onion rings.

Dinner - no real, substantial food. Just a cupcake and a coffee and then a few Halloween sweets.

Feeling really rubbish about what I’ve been eating lately. Going to a firework/bonfire show tomorrow night with DC and same friends and we’ve planned hot dogs and nachos for tea.
I will eat the treats tomorrow and then I really must cut out all the rubbish.
I needed to put a few stone on this year but I’m panicking very much about this awful eating lately so it must change!

@Phycadelicsilhouette hope you all enjoyed the fireworks and bonfire!

B - usual muesli etc
L - frittata, beetroot salad, leaves; grapes and an apple
Lemon coconut energy ball
D - Indian takeaway. I chose veg side dishes - aloo gobi, matar paneer, chana dahl, with lemon rice and raita (homemade). Lush.

AwkwardSquad your takeaway sounds devine! That's what we're having tomorrow, new place that's opened up near ours. Hopefully my parents are having the kids so I can have a glass or two of wine!

Still feeling quite rotten but better than I have for days.

Forced down quite a bit:
Porridge with raspberries & honey
Cup a soup
Banana
2 chocolate biscuits
Slice of toast with honey
Small box of Smarties
Cheese toastie and chips
A pear
Yoghurt

Some dark chocolate for later

Feeling a bit better today, managed more food at least!

B- protein porridge pot
S- satsuma
L- costa ham and cheese toastie
S- pop chips
D- 1/2 bbq chicken and bacon stonebaked pizza (Iceland) and big salad
S- probably a g&t and some left over halloween sweets

Not exactly healthy but I drop weight easily and just need quick calories!

coffee/ water/ crackers and cheese
veg soup and homemade bread
chilli con carne
wine red and plentiful !

Last night's supper was two mouthfuls of minestrone, and a small bowl of porridge.
Today, B: Warburton's thin bagel, toasted with butter, black coffee.
Mid-morning: two bites of a croissant, two swigs of tea.
L: Gregg's sausage roll, coffee with milk, bit of bread and butter
Supper: roast chicken thighs, roast potatoes and carrots, cabbage. A proper meal!

Hope you enjoyed the dinner Bridget - sounds good.

B - Weetabix with warm milk and brown sugar, some raspberries
L - cheese and oatcakes (again), pear, packet of twiglets
D - macaroni cheese with cauliflower; roast butternut squash and sweet potato with thyme; garlic bread. Halloween sweets for pudding. (That's when I discovered the Heroes version of a Crunchie is a total swizz - it's just chocolate with a few paltry specks of honeycomb in it - unacceptable!!)

@onlyhereforthefood glad to see that you’re feeling a bit better, I find that eating well helps when I’m feeling low although I’m not very good at taking my own advice! I either lose my appetite or eat rubbish!

@Bloodybridget yay to a proper meal! I hope that it’s the beginning of getting your taste back again! I love a bakery sausage roll too!

Thank you @AwkwardSquad, the bonfire and firework display was fantastic, such a long firework display, it must have lasted around 20 minutes!

@PrivateSpidey I love the crunchie in the heroes! It’s like the dairy milk crunchie bar!

@Nuttyaboutnutella I hope you continue to feel better today!

Yesterday I ate...

Breakfast - 2 x warm croissants with butter and jam, and a coffee.

Lunch - my favourite warburtons malted bread toasted x 2 with mashed avocado, lime juice, chopped chilli, salt and pepper, and an apple.

Dinner - got food at the event so instead of planned hotdog and nachos had a cheeseburger and chips. Shared a hot chocolate with DS2 as it was massive!

S - made some toffee apples so had one of those. Was nice but I feel for my poor teeth now (had to brush them straight afterwards!!)

Fuck Spidey, that all sounds fantastic x

@PrivateSpidey I think they’ve only started them this year! I only know as I bought a few of the round tubs of “Christmas chocolates” for my DC and friends visiting with DC over Christmas while they were on offer for £3 but we opened a pot on a movie evening I can honestly say though that all other Christmas treats I’ve bought are safely packed away in the store cupboard! A pot full of those sounds amazing though, when’s best for you?
Also I have to say, panettone toast sounds absolutely amazing! I’ve never eaten it that way, I will remember this for Christmas time!

Today I’ve eaten....

Breakfast - Greek yogurt with raspberries, a generous sprinkling of granola and a drizzle of honey with a slice of hot cross bun loaf toasted and buttered.

Lunch - 2 mini part bake rolls into hotdogs with onions, ketchup and mustard (didn’t have them last night and DC so wanted hotdogs and they deserved them after doing an impromptu beach clean in the windy rain!) and a choconchoc chocolate eyeball.

Dinner - a cup of coffee and a snickers just not hungry at tea time so just cooked for everyone else. Got peckish this evening Hence the snickers....

Snacks... SO MUCH COFFEE!

Yesterday--

B: eggs on toast, loads of tea, orange juice
L: leek and potato soup, an apple, plum yoghurt
Banana, biscuit I made for toddler
D: Indian takeaway from new place that's opened as a belated birthday celebration for DP. I had paneer sashlick balti, garlic naan and pilau rice. It was lovely. Also had a Gu hot brownie pudding thing with ice cream.

I googled the paneer dish, it sounds amazing. I’ll see if the local one does that, for next time!

MissLadyM I think it sounds better written down! It was nice though.

Today I've had:
B - oat crisp, plum, some raspberries
L - two pieces of toast with peanut butter, an apple, some gingerbread (last slice - I've been the only one eating it - not complaining )

D - is just cooking now - beef stew cooked on the hob with leeks, carrots and potatoes. Got some tiger bread to go with it, and have made a pudding - stole the idea from a thread on here. It's just some lots of lemon curd spread on the bottom of a baking dish with a sponge cake mixture on top. Have got some custard to go with that. And red wine as well.

Ahh stew! I’ve yet to make our first winter stew!

Today I’ve eaten...

Breakfast - A slice of hot cross bun loaf toasted and buttered and coffee.

Lunch - A hash of mini roast potato bits with salt, pepper and garlic, sliced onions, broken up salmon fillet and crispy bacon pieces with a runny yolk egg on top.

Dinner - will be... not sure if I’ll be hungry. Might just have a slice of toast with fried tomatoes on top, either that or make up a fruit salad.

@Nuttyaboutnutella Sorry, fell off the earth for a few days there. I live in South Wales.

This thread is making me hungry!

B: Green smoothie

D: Shepherds pie topped with cauliflower mash, broccoli and green beans.

I am trying not to eat chocolate at the moment but I caved today and had a wispa. Worth it! I have the M&S Christmas food catalogue at the moment and am drooling.

Changed my mind about the tomatoes on toast and had some of what I cooked for everyone else... moussaka.

Today has been a day of cake.

B - muesli, flaxseed, stewed apple, yoghurt
Slice of homemade apple molasses cake (well, had to make sure it had come out ok)
L - lentil koftas in tomato sauce with tomato salad and pitta
Half a chocolate brownie (half was still a decent portion)
D - poached salmon, giant couscous with sautéed onions, olives, preserved peppers, and salad
Another slice of apple cake

@Phycadelicsilhouette your lunch sounds so good!

B- porridge with cinnamon and some pear puree
L- spaghetti hoops and toast
S- pop chips
D- chicken and mushroom casserole, potato/carrot/swede mash, broccoli and peas
S- 2 crumpets with crunchy pb and a banana
