it’s great as an accompaniment to any meal, as well as being wonderful when made for the buffet table – Coronation Potato Salad - and just in time for New Year
Serve with crusty bread on a non-fast or dietday. This was my lunch for todayand I am feeling replete, as well as feeling as if I have not eaten “diet food”, a term I hate to see and hear
Dietary. Breakfast. well, what with doing my Wartime Kitchen and preparing for Christmas, I have not had time to post any meal plans, or indeed any of my new recipes, but, I am rectifying that today with a NEW recipe that’s just right for all the snow and frost we have been having over the last few days – a Scottish inspired Highland Stew
I often hanker after tasty “fast food” types of food when I am on a diet, and although I have never really found a decent chicken kebab outside of Cyprus (or Turkey and Greece) I do love a good take-away kebab now and then
This is a very fast casserole recipe , about half an hour from start to finish to cook. Do you have family recipes that you’ve made in one variation or another for years
Using the last of the French tarragon in my garden, I have lightened up a favourite recipe of mine, Très Rapide French Tarragon Chicken, the original buttery high calorie recipe can be found here Très Rapide French Summer Tarragon Chicken for Bastille Day
The Marmalade has been made, for my grand entry into the World’s Original Marmalade Awards, British Farmhouse Breakfast Week is over and January is about to slither out in either an avalanche of snow or a deluge of flooding, and, it is another Meal Planning Monday post – WHERE did last week go
I am submitting this link to Meal Planning Monday. Mexican Layered Salad and home-made Chicken Kebabs. Mushrooms or tomatoes on toast, as well as egg on toast is a close second, and when I saw some lovely fresh and VERY seasonal autumn mushrooms at the market the other day, I set out to prove that you CAN have your “on toast” treat on a diet, that is tasty and full of flavour
I’ve called it a made-to-measure curry, because I can easily see how this recipe could be adapted to pretty much how every many calories you have to spare for your evening meal
I’m persevering, although some weeks I think I simply eat too much food on feast days (three meals out in a row doesn’t really help if you are trying to lose weight
Breakfast. My MondayMeal Plans have been shunted to Mid-Week Meal Plans lately – but in one way, I prefer it, as I usually know what I am having on MondayandTuesday, but it’s the rest of the week I sometimes have issues with, and once I have been shopping at the beginning of the week I am better placed and organised to plan ahead
It must run in my family, as I remember my dad making orange boats with wafer sails as well as potato faces (with peas for hair etc) for parties and dinner-time meals…
Have a VERY happy and healthy Tuesday, and see you later with my VERY late MondayMeal Plan. basically, on the “points” diet that I have always followed, (and I think that the Pro Points diet may be the same) if you KNOW you have a day coming up where you are going out for a meal or you will be eating MORE than your daily recommended daily points allowance, you can “save” some of your points up from days where you go BELOW your daily allowance, BUT only over the period of ONE WEEK = Fastdays then
Baked Herb Crusted Chicken Breast with Salad. on the Weight Watcher’s diet, if you don’t use any of your allocated daily points within a seven-day period, they can be “banked” for another day, such as a day when you are going out to dinner, or you are having a few naughty treats
When I am too busy to manage two days a week of fasting, I do what I can. You can use dill, fennel fronds or the herb of your choice instead of the parsley if you prefer and of course you can play around by adding in a little ham or chorizo, skipping the tomatoes and olives or even by adding small new potatoes if you are not dieting
