What did you eat today?

[Owlie]

D: flank steak with romescu (sp?) sauce (blended almonds, whole wheat bread crumbs, red peppers, paprika, sherry vinegar), 4 little red new potatoes pan seared in olive oil, a salad

That didn't happen to come out of Cooking Light, did it?

Today:
B: 3 pancakes with butter and syrup
Latte from the Student Union. I swear they put diazepam in there so you go back for more coffee.
L: Rice with lentils and ground beef. Courtesy of a friend...tasty!
Another latte, a couple Gobstoppers.
1/2 a mug of tea, some Goldfish, 2 Digestives
D: Cereal w/ 1%
An embarrassingly large number of almonds that I was supposed to be seasoning and toasting for snacks for the next week or so...
The rest of the tea.

I have vegetables. I should eat them.

Yes, it did. All of my recipes come out of the magazine or their cookbooks. I hardly use any other recipes anymore.

[Catrin]

Cooking Light? I don't typically use recipes, I just put together what seems good to me. That generally works pretty well, but with my somewhat restricted diet I've been running out of ideas. I've not heard of this cookbook or magazine, but from reading your posts it makes me curious

Yesterday:

B: steel cut oats with a few almonds, blueberries. Skim milk, coffee
L: small amount of turkey white bean chili, rice, apple
S: banana

30 minute lower body workout (outside of a couple of safe upper body exercises), and 30 minutes on the arc trainer.

D: remainder of the left-over turkey/white bean/tomato chili, brown rice. A small salad with no-fat cottage cheese, baby spinach and frozen blueberries. I was starving!

[Crankin]

I especially like the fast recipes. And I adapt a lot of them to my needs.

[spokewench]

B: 2 eggs scrambled, small piece of ham, toast, hashbrown, coffee
L: 1 bowl beef vege soup
D: 2 chicken thighs grilled, roasted sweet and white potatoes, broccoli, 1 glass of prosecco
2 pieces of chocolate

[Reesha]

Half my recipes are "what I find in the fridge, thrown together with what I find in the pantry", and the other half are tweaked Cooking Light recipes (my favorite soup in the world comes from them!). (Usually I add a little extra fat, and extra seasoning is almost always a must with them.)
