(Please tell me if this is getting old -- otherwise I will crank along with my food voyeurism forever!)

Breakfast: coffee, homemade bacon-cheddar bread, sweet potato rounds with goat cheese-pecan-celery topping.

Lunch: will be leftover sun-dried tomato pork roast, mushroom risotto, and broccoli.

Dinner: I'm planning smoky fish chowder with potatoes and leeks, but if the threatened rain doesn't arrive I might just make turkey sandwiches and crudites.

Snacks: popcorn, if I feel like snacking at all on such a heavy food day!

What are you all enjoying today?

    It's this one: https://www.connoisseurusveg.com/vegan-dill-pickle-potato-chowder/ but I've also seen non-vegan versions on the internet if you're not into the whole nutritional yeast/almond milk thing (I think they use Swiss and sour cream).

    It is great, especially if you're into pickles!

    It's called "eat this much". I'm using the paid account, with a free account you wouldn't be able to plan more than one day (so the option to set up leftovers wouldn't be available). I use it when I need structure, especially after a period of being lax with my calories. A free account should be good enough for your purposes if you don't care to keep a pantry, generate a grocery list, or setup an extended plan with automatic leftovers. It's great for days when you don't know what you want to eat and don't want to think about it. I used the free account for 2 years before I decided to upgrade, so it's still great even without a subscription.

    Breakfast, two fried eggs on a sandwich with Duke's mayo, salt, and pepper.

    Lunch, forgot.

    Dinner, three grilled cheese sandwiches.

    Snack, microwave popcorn.

    Not the most nutritious day by a long shot. I do generally try to get more veggies in, but I'm cooking for myself today and I tend to get lazy when I do that. I'm working on it.
