Hey guys! There was some chat in the big thread about reverting the "what we're eating" post to a weekly thing, so I figured I'd give it a go.

Breakfast: nectarine and a slice of queso fresco at 3AM (I keep waking ravenous in the wee hours -- why?); cornbread with yogurt butter, sharp cheddar cheese, garden tomatoes, fresh pineapple, and French press coffee before work.

Lunch: if I'm still in our neighboring town for a medical appointment I might splurge on Denny's (I f'love Denny's and we don't have one where I live) Superbird and fries; if not, I'll have mixed greens with leftover taco chicken at home.

Dinner: leftover pork roast, rice, and lemon-steamed broccoli.

Snacks: Outshine bars, Jolly Ranchers.

    Here's my plan for the day:

    Breakfast Turkey bacon, scrambled egg, jalapenos, cheese, and salsa on a corn tortilla. Coffee. And then some more coffee

    Morning Snack Pineapple and blueberries blended in coconut water

    Lunch Either leftovers from Monday (curry chicken with oodles of vegetables and brown rice) or a chicken sandwich and pea, corn, and cucumber salad. Not sure yet

    Afternoon Snack Probably mango chips and/or nuts depending on how hungry I am

    Dinner Vegetarian tamales with green chili

    Haha this is a pretty carb-tastic looking day to start for me :)
    Breakfast: 2 slices of toast, butter. Homemade kefir.
    Lunch: fruit & fibre cereal, semi skimmed milk, bag of pom bears.
    Dinner: chicken paprikas, nokedli (little kinda pasta dumplings), green beans.
    No snacks yet but there's still plenty of time!! Think I need to get in a couple more portions of fruit & veg today!

    Breakfast: oats with raisins, skyr and peach
    Lunch: 3 slices of wholegrain bread with ham
    Dinner: I just cooked two portions of shepherd's pie. It's very low calorie actually, despite it being a huge portion. It's got a fairly big amount of protein and fat (for me, that is). Turns out I'm for once a bit behind on carbs.
    Afterwards: A caramel chocolate wafer from Aldi, or Tunnock's which I bought accidentally. Meh, I prefer the Aldi ones as they are less sweet and a bit more wafer-y for the same amount of calories, btw.

    Breakfast: Sourdough with tempeh bacon, romaine lettuce, and vegan mayo.

    Lunch: Buffalo "chicken" rice bowl with Gardein, cauliflower, carrots, and vegan ranch topped with chopped romaine, jalapenos, and pea shoots, dark chocolate peanut butter cups

    Dinner: ???? My husband and I are going to a concert tonight. We may grab pizza afterwards or I may just have leftovers

    My plan for today...
    Breakfast - protein shake and coffee
    snack - some party mix from aldi (like chex mix)
    lunch - turkey/salami sandwich and cherry tomatoes, cucumber w/ cottage cheese
    snack - pineapple and blueberries
    dinner - grilled chicken thigh and roasted veggies
    I'm going to some event at a winery tonight with my mom and sister and I think there will be cheese and crackers and wine slushes so I'm gonna try to eat light for dinner. I'm skipping the potato and roll.
