What is everyone eating today?

[Annie82]

If can fathom my lamb mince dilemma, i'll be having lamb a kebab in pitta with salad. As for breakfast and lunch, i havent got a clue as im still in bed

Just tried some pitta from Asda this week. I had not eaten pitta for years, and it's really nice. I toasted it and used it with a dip of cottage cheese and veggies, along with some crudites.

i've had 2 wholemeal toast (400g) with raspberry jam (syns) and cup of tea for breakfast.
Green Lunch, will be a jacket potato with baked beans and low fat cottage cheese.
Red dinner, Chicken and lamb chops baked in the oven with a indian style fat free yoghurt marinate, with carrots.
Lots of fruit inbetween meals!

I do EE, and have not tried green or red yet. Chicken and lamb sounds an intriguing combination - I've never tried these together.

Hi Annie,

I find I am not snacking all that much, sometimes have some fruit but I genuinely feel satisfied between meals....very bizarre!! In the evening I have a choc fix - normally a 5syn bar or a couple of marshmallow teacakes that are 1,5/2each.

I make my own sweet chilli chicken and I fry onion, mushrooms, chicken, red pepper together in fry light, add soy sauce and garlic plus chilli flakes, when its all cooked I add some runny honey (synned) and serve yum yum yum - one of my faves

I might try this tonight. I was going to have fish, but I'll get the chicken out of the freezer. I've got some broccoli I could have with it, or maybe some carrots or something. I've got some local honey from the farmers' market that has been sitting in my cupboard since before I started SW, 2.5 syns for 1 level tbsp.

Have u tried roasted carrots and roasted brocolli Annie? They are really good, chop up and spray with frylight sprinkle the chilli onto them too and season....the carrots take longer than the brocolli but the brocolli has a really nutty flavour when roasted....Rachel Ray fave

I've had roasted carrot, but never roasted broccoli, so I'll try this. I don't use chilli flakes, but I have some fresh mild chilli in the fridge (I'm a real wimp when it comes to anything hot). Thanks for the suggestion.

what is the Weetabix crunchy bran like? I find that a lot of things I eat on SW EE are soft and mushy, and I really miss having something crunchy to eat. I've tried the Oat Crisp healthy B, which are OK, but a bit dry. Cruncy bran sounds good - does it have a nice crunch and good flavour?
