Some of the tasty meals I've had this week.


Cheesy pasta with mixed vegetables.
(carrots, broccoli, green beans, sweetcorn and peas if I remember correctly!).

This was before I started my diet and made a nice wee lunch for Kieran and myself. I only had a little cheese on mine of course. I think this would be a great dish to give kids and was super easy to make because the veg was frozen. I might post the recipe later on.

Lamb kebabs with grilled mushrooms and a leafy salad. This took me ten minutes and was super cheap because I am a wizard at getting good food in the reduced section. 

Venison and mushroom salad.
I didn't make this myself, though I did come up with the idea. One of the chef's at my work made it for my lunch and it was delicious! Flash fried venison and mushrooms tossed with a mixed leaf salad and dressing.   

Baked cod with vegetable "chili" and broccoli.
I baked the cod in the oven with lemon juice, coriander and pepper. The "chili" isn't a real chili but I don't know what else to call it. It had mushrooms, mixed beans and sweetcorn with a splash of Worcestershire sauce in with the tinned tomatoes. I found it didn't have enough flavour though so next time I think I need to play about with more herbs and perhaps some spices.

Scrambled eggs on toast with mushrooms for Kieran
French toast with mushrooms for myself.
I love French toast so this made a nice treat and is allowed in my diet!

Seasoned pork chops with carrot and swede mash, corn on the cob, broccoli and salad.
I will admit I never made the mashed carrots and swede myself but it was still delicious and is a perfect example of the kind of meals I can have whilst on my diet. (Meat and lots of veg.)
