food what i ate: sunday

The final in my food what i ate series! It's been an interesting seven days. I will post my thoughts on the week as a whole for you tomorrow.

As for today................

9.00am: on rising, a cup of Lady Grey tea with soy milk, taken back to bed

[no picture sorry!]

10.00am: breakfast













Fruit and yoghurt smoothie

I divided the smoothie between 2 pint (475ml) glasses. It contained:
  • 2 medium bananas
  • 1/2 a punnet of strawberries
  • Rest of the frozen mango (it wasn't very much, maybe 1/3 cup)
  • 2 small tubs strawberry soy yoghurt
  • A slurp of maple syrup
  • Soy milk

1.00pm: "brunch"

Frittata and grilled sandwich

I'm in a grilled sandwich phase at the moment, and enjoy being able to make them on the weekend.













Frittata (to serve 2 people) made with:
  • 4 organic eggs
  • Sauteed cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, courgette (zucchini) and baby spinach
  • 50 g manchego cheese
  • Fresh basil
Grilled sandwich made with:
  • 2 small pieces homemade 9 grain bread
  • 1/2 a small avocado
  • Grilled red pepper
  • A few pieces grilled aubergine (eggplant)
  • 2 bocconcini
  • Rocket leaves
Washed down with 1 organic cola

3.30pm - cup of tea

[no picture sorry!]

5.00pm -
snack

Handful of cashews and an oatmeal raisin cookie












M - a slightly bigger handful than yesterday :P


8.30pm - dinner

Vegetarian canneloni with rocket and pear salad










  • Spinach lasagna sheets, cooked until soft and then used to wrap the filling which contained: vegetarian mince, various fresh vegetables that needed using (red pepper, courgette, etc), then egg and some leftover herb flavoured low-fat Philly cheese and some greek yoghurt to bind; topped with tomato passata and a tiny bit of grated Grana Padano;
  • Rocket with slivers of fresh pear, dressed with pepper, lemon and balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 a small glass of red wine while cooking dinner (couldn't hack it! Made me feel sick!)
  • Sparkling grape juice
So there you have it.....food what I ate!

    It has been an interesting journey into the Gastronomic Delights of Skinny Latte and one that has me reaching for the nearest cookbook, or laptop to google interesting 'stuff' to eat.. Thanks...

  2. Thanks for doing this - your food diary for the last week has proved to me that healthy eating doesn't have to be boring at all. You've given me heaps of ideas for my own meals too. Thank you!
