[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 938311, member: 17713"] I hated mackeral and salmon and avocados and olives!! Now I eat oily fish 2 times a week-would eat more if the advice said we could.. But it says only 2 portions- less if pregnant.. I just started off with 3 olives cut in half. Made sure we bought ones with feta cheese. Avocado I tried 1/4 then built myself up. Fish too. First time hubby shredded it for me so it didn't still look fish shape. I put on a bit of chilli garlic ginger sayce initially to disguise the tastes...now with the llashings of oil dressing I make then I have now got used to the tastes and love all the salads. We have lits of variety with spinach and rocket leaves, home grown lollo lettuce, cucumber, onions, pepper, tomatoes (I never used to like them either unless they were in a bolognese. Then the other avocado, olives and fish with liads of dressing. Its so lovely. Hubby makes it everyday for me and leaves in the fridge for me to have in the evenings. Sometimes we have a few julienned carrots and I'm just trying out beetroot now as well. There is no room on the plate for potatoes, coleslaw etc... We used to sprinkle nuts over but nowadays I will sprinkle a few sunflower or pumpkin seeds over before I eat. Then you could make mayonnaise if you needed more fat...lovely too with boiled eggs. Always adding more feta cheese (goat or sheeps). I have this 5 days a week the other 3 days I have with cod, haddock or plaice. May have to be 6 days a week now as my stomach n bloods don't seem to tolerate red meat Other food I love is duck wrapped up with same salad but small portions in lettuce wraps but I do have a but of hoisin sauce on this.. We have this in winter too!! [/QUOTE]
