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.

My body is thankful to be done with so much rich food over Xmas and be back in some kind of normal eating pattern!

Yesterday:
B: Weetabix with banana (I was actually craving this 😆 ), tea
L: bacon roll, an apple & pear. Small piece of chocolate Yule log, coffee.
D: chicken curry with rice and few bites of naan bread, water.
S: cheese & biscuits with chutney

Main meals today were pretty much the same as yesterday but lunch and dinner reversed. I want something different tomorrow, I’m bored now!

B: yoghurt bowl (yoghurt, banana, blueberries, walnuts, almonds & honey), tea.
L: jacket potato with prawn Marie rose, and salad. Water.
Tea and a small piece of chocolate cake mid afternoon (PMS, damn you!)
D: pasta with tomato and basil sauce + parmesan, tenderstem broccoli, water

Going to have some chocolate soon, probably these lemon dark chocolate drop things from Hotel Chocolat. And more tea.

I tried some rosemary and sea salt dark chocolate today. Can’t recommend it. The rosemary was too strong and it tasted quite medicinal. I may try cooking with it...

Awkward Squad do you ever make chilli? I always put a square or two in chilli, it's lovely. I imagine rosemary and sea salt would work well.

B- my last sachet mine pie porridge with almond milk
S- 2 plums
L- itsu katsu instant noodles, malteser celebration chocolate
S- popchips
D- spinach and ricotta tortellini and a big salad
S- 2 slices wholemeal toast with marmite, mini mince pie

B - 2 Slices toast with vegan soft cheese and nutritional yeast flakes
L - missed as wasn’t feeling well
D - red Thai vegetable soup x 2 bowls
S - nuts from shell, small slice vegan Xmas cake

Nuttyaboutnutella yes, we make veggie chilli, I’ll give it a try in that. Good tip about amount to use, thanks, I may have been tempted to put more than that in but it needs to complement not dominate.

Awkward Squad yeah definitely agree, especially flavoured chocolate as it might be overpowering. Hope it works well.

Today:
B: crumpets with apricot jam, lots of tea
L: baked potato with beans & cheese, salad
A coffee and an apple mid afternoon
D: mushrooms on toast, greek yoghurt with mango coulis

Might have a hot chocolate or chocolate covered nuts later on

Today I'm having:

B: a white pitta bread, teaspoon of hummus and 3 eggs scrambled

L: chicken and ham pie with mixed veg (brocoli carrots and Cauliflower)

D: Pan fried Salmon with the same mixed veg.

I'm going to the cinema later so I want something nice for that. Not sure what though.

Ok, yesterday I wasn't very well:
B buttered toast and tea
L bits of other people's lunches in pub, battered cod, chips, a few whitebait. Quarter share of plum and apple crumble. Black coffee.
Late afternoon: tea, mince pie
Supper a few mini blinis with smoked salmon. Butterbean, carrot and tomato soup.

Today: granola with prunes, banana and yogurt, toast and Marmite, black coffee.
L: red Thai vegetable soup, black coffee.
This afternoon: apple, slice of toast, tea.
Supper after cinema will be lamb leg steak, rice and quinoa from a packet, green veg, most likely spinach.

bloodybridget hope you're feeling better

B: poached eggs on toast, tea, orange juice

I then spent all afternoon at a coffee shop so drank my body weight in teas and coffees
L: (at coffee shop) cheese salad wrap, salad, coleslaw. Pistachio and honey cake.
D: chilli con carne with rice

Will be having a few hazelnut Lindt chocolates soon

B- cinnamon porridge made with almond milk
S- plum, mini gingerbread man
L- itsu katsu instant noodle pot
S- popchips and another plum
D- steak, oven chips, mixed veg
S- 2 slices toast with peanut butter, banana

Trying to get back to normal eating.

B - muesli etc with blackcurrant coulis
L - carrot and lentil soup; an orange and a pear
A cake (unexpected treat at work)
D - bean stew with brown rice; grapes

What did you see at the cinema, bridget?

And 2000lightyearsaway123! I saw Little Women most recently, loved it.

2 mugs of tea with semi skimmed.

A ham (home cooked ham) and piccallili sandwich and a large handful of cheeselets.

A flat white coffee. 1 dark chocolate and stem ginger biscuit.

M&S steak pie, a few chunky chips, broccoli, peas, half a corn cob, gravy. 2 glasses of Pecorino (white wine).

B- slice of whole grain toast and marmite, tea
L - ham and cheese sandwich and coffee some left over tiramisu

D - sausage casserole, glass of wine
2x Lindor chocolates

Beans on toast for breakfast, forgot about lunch, had a big pasta bowl full of spicy pork and vegetable stir fry for dinner and I am about to finish off the Christmas cheese with some crackers and pickles.

Drinks were lots of tea and coffee, water and I'm going to have a glass of merlot with my cheese and crackers now.

@AwkwardSquad I saw Little Women! I did mostly enjoy it, but I know the books backwards and resented the plot changes!

@Nuttyaboutnutella thank you, I am better, I think!

B: Russet apple
L: M&S ham and egg salad without the dressing, but with some of their salami Milano crisps crumbled on top (delish!)
S: jumbo raisins
D: beef bourguignon and a mountain of peas and tenderstem broccoli to make up for not having any of the potato gratin I served to Mr Twiglets.

B: Weetabix with banana, tea
L: vegetable soup, small crusty roll with butter, and cheese; a pear; greek yoghurt; pistachios, and a coffee.
S: few Lindt chocolates from the tree at my mum's house!
D: tomato risotto with lots of parmesan, and salad.

I'll be having a hot chocolate later, or some cheese & crackers.
