What did you eat today?

yummy, I just ate a toasted slice on my frozen hm rye and wholemeal, topped with some thin cheddar slices so they melted a little bit and topped that with several spoons of caramelised onions. It was absolutely gorgeous. I haven`t made caramelised onions for a very long time, it was only because I had a build up in the fridge

I like to eat little and often and I stop at around 4.30. I have prepped 2 x nutloaves, not being saintly I only had to add water. I will bake slice and freeze but am waiting for my veg box. I will also deal with the parsnips at the same time, part boil and part roast apart from those I am eating today

organic flour order arrived at last so I may make buns

Too much and it's only 11.45!

Breakfast at 06.30
Two eggs fried in olive oil, sprinkled with chilli flakes, chopped anchovy & zaatar, sitting atop a small mound of baked beans & a double-shot latte

Lunch at 11.15 as very hungry!
Mashed avocado & tomato on two thick slabs of toast which were spread with butter and dijon mustard

Yesterday.
Breakfast: Porridge with cinnamon and frozen raspberries, as usual.
Lunch: oat biscuits with peanut butter, coffee.
Evening: macaroni cheese, rhubarb crumble and ice cream.
Today
Porridge
Carrot and coriander soup home made
Pasta bake using excess macaroni, then last of rhubarb crumble.

I just had the remains of the split pea/bacon soup we had last night, made with the well out of date split peas I unearthed the other day. Not much bacon - just 2 snipped streaky rashers fried with the onion first.
Very tasty and filling it was, too.
I still want Something Nice, though - trying to keep my ? trotters off our one bar of Whole Nut until tonight.

Stir fry later, with a little leftover roast chicken (freezer) marinated in soy sauce, a big pack of stir-fry veg I found in the Coop the other day, a sachet of stir fry sauce, garlic, chilli and ginger.
And lots of noodles.

Two slices of wholemeal toast with lemon curd on one and butter on the other.
For our main meal were having gammon/jacket potatoes/veg and onion sauce.
Followed by a glass of red wine.
HAPPY DAYS.

Veggie day for us

Porridge with mandarin segments

Minestrone soup slice bread

Pasta primavera. ( veg pasta)
My last glass of wine?

Just toast so far today. That reminds me. Must have some lunch!

So far today some Greek Yogurt, honey and a banana for breakfast plus 3 coffees. Lunch half a M&S vegetable samosa and half an onion bhaji the last two left in a packet, my husband told that they were both mine, having eaten his, but I kindly cut them in half and gave him some, mainly because they're lovely but calorific. Then I had a sandwich of a slice of Emmental cheese and cucumber on wholemeal and a cup of tea.

Last night's dinner was red Thai curry and rice. I have to admit it was courtesy of a jar In a galaxy far, far away a long time ago, to be precise the beginning of March, I would have still been buying ingredients such as coconut milk, kaffir leaves, chilli, red Thai paste.........but soddit, I edited my Ocado order about a week ago and went the full Lloyd Grossman, on the basis that when I go shopping now, I grab a few essentials and leg out the door as quick as I can, absolutely no time for browsing the herbs and spices

Fried left-over new potatoes from yesterday 2 thick slices of Spam ( fried ) and a fried egg 2 rounds of bread. Cup of coffee.

Spam - are things that bad round your way?

Is it in date?

Usual breakfast, listed above somewhere, not that exciting.

For lunch I used my last home grown pumpkin/squash, a Turks Turban p/s, I can hever rememeber which is which.

I sliced the stripes top off, baked it, stuffed with a stuffing that included rice, mushroms, chestnuts, dried cranberries, celery, leeks etc. rebaked it and served it with a tomato sauce, brussel sprouts and sweetcorn. It looked great when reassembled with the stuffing in - and tasted delicious. Obviously couldn't eat it all so the bottom half has been frozen and will provide two more meals.

Supper is cauliflower and stilton soup made in the soup maker.

Add a slice of delicious gluten free fruit cake I had forgotten about after our break last week (is that only last week?!)

Today (Wednesday);

A protein shake
a cheese cob, a hot cross bun, a small bar of chocolate, a banana
home-made spaghetti bolognese, a bit of garlic bread

Today I had porridge with seeds and blueberries. For lunch I had 3 ryvitas with port salut and for tea I had tea made by my husband, sausage, mash, broccoli, green beans and onion and mushroom gravy.

Breakfast, granola, blueberries, banana, strawberries and yoghurt.
Lunch, homemade roast tomato soup and one slice of toasted oatmeal bread,
Dinner, salmon and roasted vegetables, whatever I have in but always onion and garlic with it, all cooked in the same roasting tin, tossed with olive oil, yum.

Yorridge (oats and Greek yoghurt overnight) with blueberries.
Homemade artichoke soup, cheese on toast.
Tea with date and banana loaf.
Stuffed mushrooms.
3 Godiva chocolates?

Cup of tea first thing

2 rashers of bacon & 2 fried eggs
Double-shot latte

Not sure about later but it will involve sauteed charlotte potatoes

My usual porridge oats, with cinnamon, Apple, and sultanas, soaked overnight in milk, for b'fast. Jacket potatoes with tinned mackerel for lunch, then a chicken and mushroom risotto, with the rice replaced with orzo, spinach, fresh parsley, onion, leek topped with parmesan.

I only eat twice a day and struggle with that. Today:

(1) Cornish Pasty followed by apple doughnut
(2) London cheesecake

I know , but it was treat time [café]

As it's still only 11am here, all I've had is a cup of decaf coffee but I put an egg on to boil so brunch will be a mixed salad with garlic hummus and a boiled egg.

Probably a bit of fish for tea and green beans. I'll poach the fish in milk and make that into parsley sauce.

My only carb may be a McVitie's digestive with a cup of Rooibos mid-afternoon.

Reading the above posts makes me want porridge, so that would be nice for tomorrow.

A slice of toast and three-fruit marmalade with coffee. A piece of DD’s sticky ginger cake and a cup of red Bush tea. Fish pie with garden peas for me, and mac cheese for DH.
Tomorrow, as we have managed to acquire some salad veg, I will make a quiche to go with them!

An obscene amount of rubbish I’m working from home and overseeing the 13 year old’s remote schooling which is proving to be a challenge - the biscuit tin (and crisps and chocolate...) were my friend today. Tomorrow I will be better.

Tea in bed first thing.
Bowl of porridge with dried apricots, and a yogurt drink, cup of tea. (4 tablets)
Mid morning, a mug of coffee. Then another one.
Cup of tea at lunch time, not hungry, so no lunch.
Roast chicken, potatoes, carrots, kale, stuffing ball and a small yorkshire pudding, with ice cream to follow.
Before bed, another 4 tablets.

Mug of tea and a banana for breakfast

Cheese and pickle on toast followed by an apple for lunch

Sweet chilli roasted salmon with sweet potato and roasted peppers, courgette and red onion followed by more tea and a home made ginger biscuit for supper.

Breakfast was 2 very large mugs of strong coffe
Lunch was large mug of builders brew tea
Evening meal was baby new potatoes in butter and herbs, 2 large mushrooms stuffed with cheese and garlic and a side salad. not willing to say how many chocolate marshmallows
