Tuesday, 21-07-20: DTU day two

Good morning.
Things are good and I am seriously pondering on putting in another order to come next Monday after the weekend at Dad's.


Yesterday's meals

This was one of those add water, stir and leave things and I added some chopped up strawberries too.  After five minutes I popped it in the microwave for thirty seconds because it had gone a bit cool.
 It was fine.  Nothing outstanding but perfectly acceptable and very filling.

The oriental chicken pad Thai didn't look great and I had my doubts as the last pad Thai I had wasn't very nice.  However, it was a lot nicer than it looked and the chicken was flavoursome and tender.  A filling lunch.

Dinner was chicken fajita with a nice, crunchy salad (allowed on this plan).
It was really nice and spicy, the rice wasn't hard (something you can get in ready meals and which I very mush dislike) and there was loads of chicken.
(The salad was pretty good too, though I say it myself!)
Another fill-me-upper.

And here are the infamous snacks.
The protein bar was very solid, like nougat in texture but less chewy, and I decided to have just half of the bar and save the rest for today.  It was lovely and sweet.
The chicken on a stick was a bit disappointing as I had read such good reviews of it.  It was fine, very tender but I wouldn't call it spicy in any way, shape or form.
The beetroot chips were delicious - I love vegetable chips anyway.

Today's meal choices are . . .

B:  sausage , bean and potato pot which I remembered to get out of the freezer yesterday evening

L:  chicken chow mein with noodles (ditto re the freezer)

D:  meaty pizza with salad

Snacks:  the other half of the protein bar, bbq zippers and salt and vinegar bakes
