What did you eat today?

[tulip]

I made a big spinach lasagne in my slow cooker. It's delicious, but I guess I'll be eating it all week long! I put small batches in the freezer, kindof like TV dinners.

B: 1.5 poptarts. I was running late this morning. How did you guess?
(The other half is still in my backpack! )
L: Roast beef and bacon sandwich with a thin slice of cheddar, red onion, lettuce and horseradish.
S: (caffeine break) small coffee frappucino, a few (small) pieces of peppermint bark.
D: Two drumsticks, spicier than I expected, but good. Oven fries (+ ketchup) and baby spinach (+ a bit of ranch dressing).
Dessert will be a square or two of the hazelnut chocolate my dad got for me.

Yesterday:
"Breakfast": water. chipotle ranch-seasoned almonds (I'm not sure whether or not I liked them...)
"Second breakfast": A coffee frappucino and a slice of banana walnut bread.
D: I went to one of the Whole Foods "wine tastings" with my parents, so I had the equivalent of maybe a glass and a half of wine, plus various small bits of food. Dinner proper was a salad with a few shavings of parmesan (my mom's latest food obsession) and pine nuts, a salmon cake from the WF deli and a few slices of French bread with garlic hummus.

Today:
B: Bowl of cheerios with 1%, cup of hot chocolate made with 1%
20-mile ride food: a mint chocolate Clif bar, lots of water and my Fakerade (lemon juice, a bit of sugar and a bit of salt in water--doesn't upset my stomach so much)
Post-ride: Glass of Coke. I don't know why, but it staves off post-ride headaches. (Must be the caffeine+sugar.)
L: Baguette slices with garlic hummus.
S: A couple of the malformed mini pecan tarts my parents were going to take to a party. This batch stuck to the pan. Oh dear. (Completely wiped out the bike ride, but there we go.)
D: Thai style salmon: Baked salmon (I daren't risk cooking it in a pan at this point in my culinary career!) in a sauce made from sauteed onions, light coconut milk, chili paste, cayenne pepper, red pepper flakes, lime juice, cilantro and a bit of fish sauce, over basmati rice (it's what we have in the house), and snow peas (with a generous splash of sesame oil and a bit of red pepper).
S: An apple and a cup of white tea/mate blend with a bit of sugar.
