    Ate salad for lunch, the usual stuff except crispy fried onions instead of raw onions and some cucumber now that it doesn't cost $3 a piece. Pan fried the last apple with cinnamon sugar mix in margarine and used it as a topping on a crepe.

    You've inspired me to pan fry my first apple... with any luck it'll taste like apple crisp...think I'll add some walnut or pecan pieces to the mix as well.

    I based mine off this recipe - http://www.thefreshmarket.com/recipes/details/pan-fried-apple-slices/#.V7jhjvkrKM8 . I used 11 g sugar, 1/8 tsp of cinnamon, 10 g margarine, and a single Gala apple. Turned out pretty good and was more than I expected. I poured it over a folded, pre-made crepe.

    This is a great thread cause in my head I did great, but reality is different. I had celery, onion and microgreens as part of lunch, and a huge amount of spinach and some mango with dinner.

    I think if I eat dessert it should be a fruit instead of my diet ice cream bar. Drat.

    I have my breakfast and lunch all packed for today: banana with my muffin as breakfast. Top round roast beef sandwich with fresh spinach; a little salad of yellow pepper and cucumber. Two Turkish figs (yay!!) for dessert. I plan a serving of gazpacho as part of a small dinner tonight.

    Lunch - red raspberries, Craisins, golden raisins, a banana

    Supper - bell peppers and zucchini kebabs

    Pan fried the bell peppers and zucchini in some oil. So much better than the kebabs, but that's because I didn't cook them long enough. With a pan, I can see how brown the veggies are getting. In an oven, they just dry out a little. Having a banana/raspberry/Cool Whip crepe with chocolate syrup drizzled on top with supper.

    For breakfast I had a bowl of muesli with a sliced banana. Lunch was a whole carton of New Covent Garden pea & creme fraiche soup which has one serving of vegetables per half carton, plus an apple and a peach. Dinner was just pizza with two pre-packaged salad bowls. So all in all, not too bad.

    I ate plenty of cantaloupe. At dinner I'm waffling between green beans or a salad.

    Raspberries (with greek yogurt) as a snack.

    Dinner will include a lot of broccoli.

    Yes. Today I had bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes and leeks and some salad. No fruit though, not a big fan of fruit in general. Prefer savoury foods. But will be having strawberries tomorrow.
