to rather go hungry than eat this dinner?

[LetThemEatCake]

have been running the contents of the cupboards down, making and freezing lots of meals in prep for arrival of dc3 in a few weeks' time. Fed the children decently tonight (pasta with broccoli, broad beans and pesto) and have baked lemon chicken with potatoes for dh (working late) which will feed the kids tomorrow night.

BUT I have all weird food requirements - veggie, wheat-free, blah blah - and realised too late that there is nowt for me to eat. Have tried to fashion some kind of meal out of rice noodles, tinned tuna, broccoli and broad beans but even smothered with sweet chilli sauce it is so bleugh that I'd rather eat nothing.

WWYD?

Eat the biscuits I have stashed away with a nice cup of tea

Sounds OK actually, but I'll eat anything covered in sweet chilli sauce ! Hey, it's your food, your hunger. YANBU but I HATE wasted food.

oh if only I had some cake (wheat free, gluten free, egg free and dairy free of course!! Calorie-free also a bonus...)

you are pregnant and tired and hungry - is there anything 'fast' foody you fancy that your dh can bring you home?

what about a jacket potato - you must eat something...

BIN... do you have any cereal?

I hate wasted food too.

I want raspberries. Smothered in greek yoghurt and honey.

I would order a takeaway.

order a takeaway.... and eat some cake.

"hello dominos pizza, how can I help"

most takeaways off-limits ... it's the weird dietary stuff.

Annoying, as I'm from Australia where gluten-free pizza bases are on most menus ... but not here, sadly.

Wagamamas do gluten free, as do some Chinese places. Depends how cosmopolitan you are.

sounds yummy to me

Can you eat the potatoes you baked to serve to the DC tomorrow and bake them some more when they need them? Or are you unable to eat spuds, either?

spuds were cooked in the same pan as the chicken, so no go.

Ho hum. Will get him to swing by Sainso's on his way home and get me raspberries etc. Feel bad at waste, but happy mum surely = happy baby. And tinned tuna is so vile sometimes.

Does Wagas deliver?????!!! That's one to bear in mind

Ewww! have you made it already, or are you just visualising its repulsiveness?

If not, have stir fried brocolli and ginger with the noodles. chuck a load of chili flakes in it. Go on, knock yourself out

...then have the cake

You're veggie - why are you eating fish (especially endangered fish like tuna)?

yes, sorry, can't really call myself a proper veggie. No meat, no poultry. Was no fish but have reintroduced once or twice a week since getting pregnant. Likewise dairy - reintroduced yoghurt when I got pg.

Apologies.

Send him to the shops to get raspberries - AND cake

I should think so .

But I will go back to my vegan ways when the baby is 6 weeks old, I promise!!!!

Fortunately though, I don't think it was endangered tuna - the tin doesn't say dolphin-friendly, so hopefully it's just one of them.

what about beans on toast, or cereal?

Pizza Hut will do a pizza on a GF base if you take one in with you. No cheaper though!
