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? 😄

I love having refreshing salads like this on hand @Mellmars1185! I’ve not seen this combo of ingredients and am making a note to give this a try. The feta and dill must add a  great texture and flavor. 😃 

[Mellmars1185]

@itsfi It was really good. However, as the days passed the beets became sweeter and the feta and cucumbers became pinker. I was the only one in the house eating it (which is too bad because it was really good). I think it is best if eaten within 2 days from my experience.

This looks soooo good! @Mellmars1185 perfect for a hot day 😃

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu Thank you! More salads to come.i have been inspired by my Instagram feed lol. There is also a lot of local produce available. I really love seasonal produce.

[CynthieLu]

Yum 🥕🥬🥒 it looks fantastic!

I love my seasonal fruits and veg too @Mellmars1185 I'm very lucky I love healthy food, my son on the other hand is a harder sell. He feels less passionately about them 😋

@Mellmars1185 ,

This is very clever! 

[JoSometimes]

@Mellmars1185 I need to try this one day! That is too funny!

[Mellmars1185]

@JoSometimes @CynthieLu When my son was younger he would not touch this brand because he said it was not healthy. Now he is all about the takeout food.

[CynthieLu]

🤣🤣🤣 that's tooo good! @Mellmars1185 thanks for that laugh 😉

My fiancée made tuna melt sandwiches with a lot of pur leftovers. It was amazing.

 

[Cissy63]

@Mellmars1185  Oh that’s wonderful he did that for you.  Tuna melts are so tasty😋

[Mellmars1185]

@Cissy63 Thank you 💞

[CynthieLu]

I love tuna melts @Mellmars1185. And how sweet of your fiance to make yummies for you. 🙂

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu Thanks! Tonight he made grilled cheese but I needed my salad.

@Mellmars1185 ,

Tuna Melt Sandwiches are one of my favorites!  That looks really good to me!

[Mellmars1185]

@tsavorite Thank you! I ate it so quickly. I am thankful I remembered to take a picture before I devoured it 😂

I was feeling lazy and didn't want to dirty a new bowl so I decided to mix it up this way with a spatula, which is small enough to fit into the dishwasher.

From now on, I think I will only use Sir Kensington's may for salads. It really makes a difference!

 

[Mellmars1185]

@Ispend2much6 This looks delicious! Is it a potato salad. I saving dishes and time is so great. Any time you can gain back is a definite win!

[Ispend2much6]

I forgot to say that- yes. It"s potato salad!
