I weigh everything as I don’t trust my judgement on ‘dollops’.

Sorry about double post above, forum wasn’t showing my postings for some reason.

Just wanted to ask about your Mushroom and garlic burger Orchid, did you mean a large mushroom, or actual burger? Thanks.

Hi Barby – it is an actual burger. I found it in the health food shop – made by dragonfly. It is quite high carbs so needs to be planned in carefully or you blow the days budget easily. I enjoyed it – they come in a pack of two, I had the other one on Monday evening. I will definitely get them again as a backup to have in the fridge.

Barby, did you spot the seeds ‘fried’ in Tamari that Cherrieanne mentioned the other day – sunflower seeds of pumpkin seeds – dry roast slightly, then add Tamari Sauce to them – they caramelise and all stick together. Once cool – separate and store – lovely snack!

Just the thread I’ve been looking for 🙂 I love getting meal ideas.

I do weigh and add up calories, but have chucked the list away, but today I had:

B- smoothie of coconut water, raw beet & kale, milled flaxseed & cinnamon.
L- apple, celery, red leicester & walnuts. (small but surprisingly filling).
small cappucino
D- courgette ‘lasagne’ with cottage cheese and grated romano instead of bechamel.
Treat- a few ripe strawberries with black pepper and cream. Delicious.
