Oooh - I'd been thinking about home-made hummus, that recipe looks good.

Thursday -

B: Strawberries and double cream.
L: Lettuce, cherry tomatoes, raw mushrooms, hummus.
D: Steamed vegetables (cauliflower, broccoli, leek and mushrooms) and grated cheese.

Friday - Day out and unexpected lunch out. I ate the packed lunch whilst waiting for the fourth cancelled train of the day.

B: Crackers and butter, strawberries and double cream
Lunch Part One: Egg mayonnaise sandwich.
Lunch Part Two: Lettuce, cherry tomatoes, Quorn cocktail sausages, satsuma.
Dinner: Cheesy omelette with red onion, green pepper and mushrooms.

I'm also trying a small bit of cheese or nuts just before bed to see if that cons my liver into good behaviour at dawn.
 
Yesterday:

Brunch: tofu wiener, lots of coffee throughout the day
Dinner: red Thai curry, pappadums, spicy yogurt dip.

I tried the vegan Quorn bits in the curry for the first time. They are as tasty as the regular pieces, but broke up quite a bit. This may have been my fault though
 
I have missed this forum, I love seeing what people eat, work has been so busy. late nights etc. I struggle with keeping myself eating well, so have done batch cooking for the week, yes I eat beans, lentils but no bread or pasta with any of them. The tofu burgers are to die for, first time. so thats my meals and some lunches for the week making them I am normally not keen on tofu but these are yum, if anyone wants receipts let me,know put them on recipe page?
 
@Rosieshe Please please let me know the recipe for the tofu and spinach burgers!

I hope you can pop in more regularly. Your food looks amazing and you are so organised. It is inspirational!

I ahve moments of being organised i love cooking (hence my health situation I eat too much and trying to change behaviours)

½ block frozen spinach ( I steamed mine in Microwave to defrost)

block firm tofu
1/3 cup rolled oats

medium onion, chopped
2 big cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup LSA or Flaxmeal mix 1 just used flaxmeal not the lsa
tablespoon paprika
salt and pepper to taste
1teaspoon cumin


crumble tofu add other ingredients, mix, let it stand for a couple of minutes and form into patties, if too dry add water, this is taken from ANTI-INFLAMMATION-COOK-BOOK.pdf
 
What part does flax play in the dish as I am funny about flax? If it acts as a binder, I could maybe use a chia egg.
 
@Rosieshe I will give the burgers a go tonight and let you know how I get on. I like trying new things. Thanks for sharing x
 
B .. Thick chease on thin toast
L .. Chease brisket with chease cuecumber and chease
D .. A lovely big fresh salad with a ... LM sausages sliced into a flavoured mix fried vegetable colliflower rice type thing .. It sounds odd but was delicious.. Will watch the wife next time she makes it, then will know more about how it's made and what went into it.
 

I like the look of this! Thank you.

I've got some tofu for a protein change and have everything else except the spinach so I'll give it a try soon.
 
Brunch: cold leftover curry
Dinner: spinach and tofu burger, coleslaw made with eggless mayo
Pudding: 20g vanilla Swedish Glace (5g carbs) with strawberries. I forgot how sweet food is!



I enjoyed the spinach and tofu burger and imagine it would be great for breakfast. Used a slightly different recipe that used peanut butter as a binder. I think Rosie's burger would pack more flavour though with the paprika and cumin
 
B: scrambled eggs
L: lidl protein roll and cheese, cucumber
D: baked camembert and low carb veggies
 
Yesterday and today have been much the same

B: Strawberries and greek yogurt
L: Lettuce, cherry tomatoes, raw mushrooms, hummus and a small chunk of extra-mature cheddar cheese.
D. Eggs - omelette yesterday and hard boiled today. Steamed veggies yesterday and salad use-up today. A few raspberries with a dollop of clotted cream.

However, I had a real dip mid afternoon today, and had a couple of slices of Burgen toasted. It did not affect me as Friday's bread did, and when I tested a couple of hours after eating it, having been for a walk, all was absolutely fine.
