What did you eat today?

[Owlie]

I fry some garlic, ginger and pepper flakes (amount depending on if it's just me or me and DBF!) before I put in the meat. I've also got a bottle of Kikkoman's stir-fry sauce, which is pretty tasty. I should try just adding a bit of sesame oil next time.

Just be sure to add it at the end. It has a low smoke point, so it's not the best oil to actually cook with.

I make stir frys different ways too. Sometimes with broth and corn starch - then I add garlic, red pepper flakes, to my stir fry.

Sometimes I have bottled sauce and use that, but I try to limit the amount since it is so high in sodium. But, it is yummy.

Love stir frys. My husband always complains that he isn't getting enough calories so I tell him to have some ice cream or an extra cookie after dinner!

Poor boy.

Yeah, I know. I love sesame oil. I add extra to hot and sour soup for the smell alone...

Let's see:
B: Tea, a few pieces of smoked salmon
L: I skipped it--we need to go shopping!
S1: Whole-milk chai latte, huge cinnamon bun/doughnut hybrid at the local coffee shop. I've been having glazed doughnuts and cinnamon roll cravings for a week (where's that thread?). I ate the whole thing.
S2: A few chili powder-coated dried mangoes
D: Salad with a chicken breast, a sprinkling of cheese, and oil and vinegar dressing. Slice of toast.
S3: I'm probably going to have an apple. Maybe something desserty.

I'm justifying my caloric intake by saying it's around 10 degrees outside and the apartment is FREEZING.

There appears to be a trend...

(Replace the tofu with chicken, the orange pepper with a red one, and get rid of the mushrooms and that's probably dinner at some point this weekend...)

Now I want pineapple...

My diet was awful yesterday so won't post it - I really need to do some 'advance cooking'. Calorie-wise it was fine, but the content was not. I also had less protein than usual and am starving...I KNOW better

I really am enjoying this thread as it is giving me good ideas - thanks!

My husband is obsessed, Im personally a little worn out on it but it is an easy way to get your veggies.
