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? 😄

Right back at ya sweets @JoSometimes 😘

@JoSometimes I've never heard of that dish but it looks interesting!  What's the sauce?

[JoSometimes]

@CookieGirl1 The dark sauce is a mix of Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, oyster sauce, and sugar. The resulting flavour is close to bbq sauce but not as tangy or spicy. The white is supposed to be Japanese mayo, but I didn’t have any on hand, so it’s North America mayo.

Dinner was Shrimp Thai Curry at the local Kelsey's with visiting family 💕

It was yummy 😁 Just Noodles,Bok Choy, Broccoli, Red Peppers and Shrimp in a non spicy sauce.  It was very flavourfull, thou I would have loved if they had a spicy option 😉🌶

@CynthieLu I've never heard of Kelsey's.  Now I have to look that up!  

[CynthieLu]

It's a popular restaurant chain here,  family friendly dinners and they always have a little sports bar area with lots of TVs showing different games. The night we went had Women's International Hockey and BaseBall ⚾️ 🙂 

[JoSometimes]

@CynthieLu I’m glad you found something good beyond the usual burgers and steaks from Kelsey’s. I usually get disappointed whenever I try to order things that aren’t burgers whenever I’m at a burger joint. 

[CynthieLu]

There was no way it was near a good as authentic Thai @JoSometimes 

But it was yummy for the place it was.  And it had alot more veggies than I would had gotten and less grease lol than if I'd had a burger 😉

Ooh this looks so good @CynthieLu 😊 

[CynthieLu]

It really was yummy @blackkitty2014. Thank you 🙂 Are you a Curry fan? 

[blackkitty2014]

Yes both my husband and I love curries. He’s a bit pickier than I am. I can eat whatever curry version you give me. Lol 😂 @CynthieLu 

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu That looks delicious! I haven't tried that dish yet at Kelley's. Good to know you liked it! I am going there later this week ☺️

[CynthieLu]

Ooh have fun! @Mellmars1185 

I love the Ribs and Burgers but this was my more healthy compromise with myself 😉 see it has vegetables 😋 and we always start with the four cheese Spinach dip 💚

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLuSounds delicious! Our family loves the spinach dip also! It is my fiancées birthday this friday so we took the day off. We are goint to head over to kelseys Thursday night because they have a wing deal. We are going to use our scene points!

[CynthieLu]

Oh that's awesome! I saw that wing special advertised, it looked like a great deal 😁

@Mellmars1185 I hope you two have a wonderful time 🥳

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu Thank you very much 💓

Ice cream 🍨🤣😋

[itsfi]

I’m all for this @BeautyFrEcK! Loooove ice cream! 🍨 

[JoSometimes]

@BeautyFrEcK  I love ice cream though my stomach doesn’t (lactose intolerance…)

I usually go for fruit flavours like mango, strawberry, or blueberry but I agree with @CynthieLu about mint chocolate chip, especially on a really hot day. 

[CynthieLu]

Yum! What flavor is your favorite @BeautyFrEcK ?

I'm all for mint chip or choclate peanut butter 🥜 😊

One time I had a homemade dark choclate orange at a little ice cream shop,  it was sooooo fab!

[BeautyFrEcK]

Mint chocolate chip all the way!
