Day 7:
B - Fried potato with mixed greens, tomatoes, olive oil & balsamic vinegar.
L - Courgette frittata with mashed butternut squash and carrots & tomato & two rashers.
D - Leftover beef stir fry with roasted carrots and turnip, and little tastes of everything I made below!
- Today was fine, though my tummy still hasn't settled.
- I did lots of food prep in the evening which was great! I roasted a chicken (with lemon and rosemary), made Melissa Joulwain's chocolate chili (OMG I think it's the best thing I've ever eaten ever) and made her Czech meatballs (not a big fan, but I subbed cumin for carraway; maybe that's why), and her Kickass Ketchup. So good.
- I also made her olive oil mayonnaise but I didn't have light olive oil so I just used extra virgin. Big mistake - there's such a weird after taste, although the texture is great! Do not recommend!
Day 8:
B - Courgette frittata (it's finally finished!) with four meatballs and a tomato.
L - Roast chicken with roasted carrots and turnip and carrot.
D - Chili with salad and sautéed aubergine.
- Today was more back to normal!
- I spent most of the day in the library, so this way of eating was great - it fuelled me up for hours and I didn't have to worry about annoying my neighbours by eating snacks ;)
Day 9:
B - Egg, spinach & coconut 'pancakes' with homemade sriracha.
L - Leftover roast chicken with salad and roast carrots and turnip.
D - Leftover chili with sautéed aubergine and salad.
- Totes TMI but things are moving really slow right now - not sure what to do about this :(
- I sautéed the aubergine with a little fish sauce and it was truly amazing!
Day 10:
B - Egg & spinach 'pancakes' with two leftover meatballs and some tomato.
L - Leftover roast chicken with aubergine and carrots and turnip and tomato.
D - Roast beef with potatoes and salad.
- Still no movement, not feeling so good. :/
- Can't wait to not have chicken for lunch tomorrow, getting a bit tired of it at this stage!
- Survived a trip to the cinema with no snacks or drinks while my boyfriend munched away on popcorn and slurped Coke beside me! So proud :)
