Foodie Friday

It’s still Friday isn’t it? My mind is in a bit of a muddle as we get ready to head to Germany TOMORROW…. that’s crazy. The time has come around so fast. It also means this will be the last Foodie Friday for about a month but I will be sharing most of the food I eat in Germany in my daily blogs.

As you can see I didn’t buy many groceries this week and I should have taken a photo of the fridge as it’s almost empty.

I did veer a little of track with my healthy eating around mid-week… slipped into holiday mode a little early I think. But I’ll worry about repairing any damage when I get back.

Breakfast was still mostly my smoothie but one morning I made a delicious veggie omelette and another morning I had a Gloria Jeans Iced Chocolate – I really enjoyed it as it was the first one I’d had in a month (and I won’t have another for a very long time).

Lunches were more varied this week. There was pita bread with cheese & salad….

Thai for Sunday lunch at Nan & Pops….

and a delicious tortilla in a bowl – so yummy….

Dinners were pretty quick and easy as it was a rather busy week. There was Quorn Snitzel & veggies…

a open faced veggie burger…

On Tuesday night we went out for dinner (the girls and I had been to the hairdresser and looking good so I made Kevin take us out) to Hogs Breath Cafe. I opted for two side dishes – veggies and mashed potatoes.

We also enjoyed homemade pizza…

and Christy and I had pizza again (this time on pita breads) another night…

There was pasta with cheese (the others had Arribatta sauce but I didn’t feel like it)..

And there was soft (soy) tacos…

Now the sugary stuff. Don’t worry I’ll be going back to sugar free living when I get back from our trip.

Having given up so many things for the last month I really did enjoy my treats this week. Like this scoop of ice cream…

and scones with jam & cream (Amy & I shared so it was only one each)….

I treated the girls to muffin tin Monday…. I just had some cheese & crackers…

and there was a very failed choc chip slice – luckily I had made two and Amy was able to salvage enough to take to school. I blame our oven – I’m going to have to prioritize getting it repaired when we get back (it’s been mucking up for some time).
