I'll start!

B: bran sticks and oat milk, glass of OJ.
L: Hummus and tomato toastie.
D: Stir fry: pepper, courgette, onion, garlic, ginger, carrot and Quorn chicken-style pieces, noodles and lots of soy sauce. First time I've tried the chicken-style pieces; they were on offer. Nice and low cal/high protein, but nothing special in terms of taste.
Snacks: apple, banana, bombay mix.

I got them in B&M Bargains before Christmas, the shop assistant said they were flying off the shelves! I wonder is it because they are the only place that is selling them as I haven't seen them anywhere else.

Is there a pescetarian/veggie or general "What I ate today" thread?

This one is great for ideas but I'm actually not vegan.

SapatSea · 04/02/2020 14:23

I dropped off for several days (busy, small hospital procedure) but am back again. Everyone is still dishing up gorgeous food.

B: Vegan scone
L: Spaghetti and red pepper and almond pesto (homemade, no cheese) olives
D: I made these from an online hello fresh recipe. Added some peppers and courgette and left out the yoghurt/sour cream. Very nice and so simple.

SapatSea · 04/02/2020 14:26

*Juliette" i don't think there is a seperate veggie section in "Feed the World" category. I suppose you could start a thread in the general Food/Recipes section.

IJumpedAboardAPirateShip · 04/02/2020 21:05

@Juliette20 there’s generally always a general one going on in chat, or just start one, posters love it and it fills up quicker than our little vegan one!
