What's on your plate?

[lylysa]

Hello there, ladies and gents!

Keeping in line with all the fun and interactive threads asking about your most recent halls, items you have your eyes on, what you're currently wearing, what's your hair routine, and more, I've decide to branch out and ask:

"What's on your plate?"

The beauty world doesn't just stop at skin care and cosmetics, it also goes hand in hand with your overall health and well-being, so with that, I'm curious to see what we're all chowing down and snacking on be it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, or inbetween!

For those with apps that help count calories or to those who just want to keep a log, here's a place to share, possibly find and share some recipes, and even tips on maintaining a balanced diet.

Don't just share food items, but even drinks! I'm a huge fan of tea and at least have a cup of green tea a day (anti-oxidants) and drink plenty of water.

For lunch today, I had:

-Brown rice

-Steamed egg

-Steamed red snapper with green onion, sesame oil, and black pepper

-Gai lan (it's a type of Chinese vegetable/greens)

Now, tell me, Beauty Talk world, what do you have? 😄

30" pizza! I was barely able to get the box in the door.

[lylysa]

Bwhaha! Tilt it, tilt it!!! Or eat it at the doorway!

[RandeeBT]

That looks amazing, TheSocialQuota! What toppings are on it? 😉

[Anonymous]

Pesto base, black olives, caramelized onions, sundried tomato, pineapple, and basil. So good!

[etscore1]

Holy moly! That sounds/look fantastic!

[RandeeBT]

Wow, that sounds delicious! Olives are my favorite pizza topping! I had a pizza with just green olives on it the other day. It was so amazing!

Any store with an olive bar gets my love. I wish I could claim that I'm part Mediterranean... but I just have an irrational love affair with the things.

[RandeeBT]

Me too! When I go to a store like Whole Foods and approach the olive bar, my mouth seriously begins watering. They are my favorite food!

I'm glad this post has popped up again! I love looking at everybody's delicious food! Today for lunch I had some currywurst, no pics though, I have a personal "no food photography in public" policy haha.

Here is my dinner from last night though, Chana Masala, basmati rice, and some salad for good measure:

[lylysa]

Basmati rice!!! Love love love it!

[malday]

Basmati is my favorite! I'm never without a bag in my pantry. 

[lylysa]

There's an Iranian restaurant by my work that has basmati rice along with fresh baked naan bread that pairs so well with hummus....I'm drooling, pardon me.

Last night my boyfriend made turkey meatballs which he cooked first in a pan but then added to stewed tomatoes to finish cooking and to absorb more flavor with pasta....needless to say as soon as I ate my bowl I curled right up on his lap and napped....I also snored because the food coma was THAT good!

P.S. I love checking into The Lounge to see new thumbnails of images in this thread, makes me more excited to click in and see the images at full scale!
