Doing OK this week. Six days in, six on plan, one to go!
I had a bit of fun with some 'different' stuff today.
First on all I made mayo with hardboiled egg and very little oil - it was on TikTok and YouTube. Mayo it wasn't, it's more like devilled egg flavour but a very nice sauce/dressing type thingy.
And then I had a go at a 'lentil 'tofu' using Thermione and that was a real success. Never having cooked with tofu before, I need to look up some recipes but the recipe also gave an idea for spicing it up and air frying so I will probably do that.
If you have any tofu ideas/recipes, please do comment below because I really have no idea.
What I ate today:
Absolutely lovely - garden tomatoes fried in a bit of evoo on toasted sourdough and with a crumble of feta over.
The coleslaw is yesterday's leftover and I had more tomatoes because - well, why not?
Half an A, one B and three syns for the bread, two syns for evoo and one syn for salad cream in the coleslaw.
Later, I had a plum, a nectarine and a peach - because they needed eating!
The bean and veg chilli has finally gone - and it was very, very tasty with chips and cheese!
Two syns for some evoo for the chips, one syn for the chilli (cos it said so on the pot!) and one and a half healthy extra As.
Afters was some pineapple.
Summary:
two healthy extra As
one healthy extra B
nine syns
Tomorrow's plans:
L: Alex is round for a cooking lesson, he's making onion chutney and has asked that we can have toast with chutney and then cheese melted over. I am very glad to comply with that because mmmmmmm.
D: crispy spiced lentil tofu bites with a finger salad; fruit
Exercise: Groove video
I cut the block of tofu in rectangles and pass them in a plate of cornmeal ,salt and black pepper.After they are coated all around ,bake them in high temp til they get crisp.( air fry might work too). Very good in salads.
ReplyDeleteHi! Thank you very much. I gather the lentil ones do crisp up nicely so I'm excited to give it a go. I need to collect some ideas so I appreciate this. xx
