I stopped at the cafe on the way home today from my fitness class. I had a muffin with 2 poached eggs, salmon on top with some nice salad and a pot of hollandaise sauce on the side. Delicious! Also a latte.
It's so chilly here today that I think I am going to make soup when I get home - and that will solve the issue of what to have for the rest of the week. Current favourites - French onion (a faff to cut up all the onions though) and pea (super simple)
Home made soup, usually vegetable, but sometimes it’s mushroom with a hint of fresh thyme. During the winter it’s my standard lunch which I batch make and freeze.
Well, yesterday, it was nothing much. ☹️It was one of my 5-2 diet days. I don't seem to be shedding many pounds but maybe it helps save the planet!? I wish!
A piece of salmon, new potatoes and fennel today, with another large orange. These oranges are 65p each but there's a meal in them, so fleshy sweet and juicy. Usually around 3pm.
I never eat beyond 6pm, only a coffee or cup of tea.
I don't think I've posted before, so here goes. I made a roast chicken & pots & veg at the weekend, ate a portion & then divided the rest into little boxes & froze them. I take lunch into work & microwave them so I eat a warm lunch every day. I tend to have a very light supper of soup or egg on toast so my main meal is always lunch.
Home-made pea and ham soup---it was so thick I could have stuck the spoon upright. 2 pieces of crispy bread then an enormous orange cut into quarters. Cheese and crackers for tea.
Thinking ahead to tomorrow and you have inspired me to have something a bit more exciting (along with the Ryvita and Philly - wouldn't want to overdo the change )
Found some M&S falafel in the fridge. Bit of hummus and salad. Some pickles. And fruit. And maybe a creme egg
Lunch for me today was eaten in a friend's car. On Monday mornings I go to a Pilates class which I left this morning at 1pm. At 1.25 I set off to a U3A Italian conversation group so it was a quick change and off to my friend's house as she was giving me a lift. There was just time to eat my piece of Cheddar, five Ritz crackers and six grapes before we arrived.
Somehow ... missed out on lunch today, but it won't do the diet any harm. Have since had a lovely curry made with yesterday's left over chicken, accompanied by coconut rice.
