What did you eat today?

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.

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

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

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.

Spam - are things that bad round your way?

Is it in date?

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

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

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

Veggie day for us

Porridge with mandarin segments

Minestrone soup slice bread

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

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.

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.

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

Some very yummy sounding meals being consumed by gransnetters!

Given me few ideas for some nice lunches and dinners.

I will be making a curried chicken and lentil soup with vegies and apple with coconut cream added at the end tomorrow from a recipe sent in to a magazine by a 90+ year old gentleman.It is delicious and we often have it.

Felt a little lost as I normally have DGS on Tuesdays, but he stayed with DD today. Slept late instead!

Breakfast 11.00: Instant coffee. Porridge with milk and golden syrup.
Lunch 14.00: Two warm croissants, cubes of cheddar cheese, cherry tomatoes. More coffee.
Supper 19.00: Fried rice with onions, bacon, mushrooms and peas, simmered in chicken stock. Water
Pudding 21.00: Mini meringue with red grapes, single cream. Hot chocolate drink.

Looks a lot of sugar and starch. Much healthier when DGS is here! Loads of veg left from last week's box so I'll make soup tomorrow, need potatoes though.

Gosh most of you sound much healthier than me?

No breakfast, mid morning coffee
Scrambled eggs on toast for lunch with satsuma, coffee
Mid afternoon cup of Assam tea
Dinner small salmon fillet, carrots, beans, small quantity of mashed potato and hollandaise sauce, followed by apple crumble. Dinner cooked by DH, bless him!

In our house one son has 'textures' issues so only eats certain things,but he will have anything vaguely 'chicken' related,even re-heated,but other son wont touch anything he considers 'leftovers' (anything not on his plate when its freshly made) so its up to me to eat up anything left in fridge,as usual,so nothing new for me there?

Overnight oats in natural yoghurt and fruit.
Posh cheese on toast ( Brie&cranberry on sourdough bread baked for 20 mins)
Homemade date and banana loaf with tea in the garden.
Mediterranean pork casserole with new pots.

Saggi I hope everything will be ok with your daughter and that tomorrow will be a better day for you.

Breakfast- bowl of instant porridge, topped with fresh raspberries. Cup of tea.

Lunch-wholemeal banana sandwich, cup of tea.

Dinner will be Baked salmon fillet with steamed sweet potatoes, broccoli and peas.
And a few spoonfuls of Bio yogurt.
