    I've already had lunch but today I had Herb Encrusted Haddock! I've never been a fish fan so I thought I'd give it a go since my friends told me you can't taste the fish as much. I made it last night had half for dinner and half today, scrummy!

    Very tasty, very healthy and full of protein, a lot of wins then!

    For the Recipe: http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/1742/herbcrusted-haddock

    Added some home made tomatoey sauce and some brown basmati rice when I had it for dinner so I could get some more carbs. Yum yum yum!

    Taking a 3 mile round trip walk to Qdoba to get a burrito bowl I think. Without the sour cream of course...maybe I will get the cheese if I have a good pace going on the walk.
