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? 😄

Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃 @caitbird 

Wowza!  Everything on your plates looks entirely scrumptious. So many different flavours. 🤩 Thank you for sharing this!

I'm soo hungry now for a full turkey dinner 😉

@caitbird  This looks soooooo good!!  And the portions look tolerable too!   I love thanksgiving but being overstuffed is the worst!!! You’re making me want brussel sprouts!!  😜. 

[caitbird]

@heartsmyface  thank you, it was really good! It was definitely a lot of calories but I didn't feel like I overindulged too much, I was just comfortably full but not ready to explode lol!

@caitbird Everything on that plate looks soooo delicious! Happy belated Thanksgiving ❤️

[caitbird]

@caitbird Happy Thanksgiving! You meal looks delicious. I like all of the veggies. The roasted carrots look beautiful 🥕. I would like to try cashew nut roast one day.

[caitbird]

@Mellmars1185  thank you, and happy Thanksgiving to you too! The cashew nut roast is delicious, it's been a tradition in our family for many years. I can send you the recipe if you like.

[Mellmars1185]

@caitbird Yes please! Thank you. That would be wonderful.

[caitbird]

@Mellmars1185  I sent you a message!

[JoSometimes]

YUM! I can just imagine the food coma that might have followed after a plate of food like that. Happy Thanksgiving to you @caitbird!

[caitbird]

@JoSometimes  haha yes, it was quite a feast! Thank you, and happy Thanksgiving to you too! 💜🦃

Ohhhh, this was so tasty @caitbird! Love the two types of dessert! 😍 

Your roasted carrots have a beautiful glaze to them and look like they have the perfect texture - my carrots never quite get there - they're either more crunchy than I hoped or more soft. Yours look delicious! As do those scalloped potatoes - yum!!

[caitbird]

@itsfi  I admit I can't take credit for the carrots (which were indeed excellent), and only partial credit for some of the rest of it - my mom did all of the cooking (though the rest of us helped). She is a wonderful cook! She said next year, my brother and I will each be responsible for one dish each, bc she wants a bit of a break. Which I think is more than fair!

Smash burger and fries

@Mellmars1185 ,

Your fast food looks so good!  Smash burger even sounds great to me.  I'm fast food deprived!

[Mellmars1185]

@tsavorite Thank you. I probably have been eating a little too much fast food lately. The holidays are coming too. Next month I will start eating healthy again ☺️🥗

[CynthieLu]

Oooh that's some good looking food truck food @Mellmars1185 🍽️🍺🍔
