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? 😄

 Hello @lylysa and BIC !!! We'll on my plate u going to find  some fantastic Salmon ( Chile Lemon rub) fajitas black beans and flower tortillas.  (Margarita and a beer on the side) brutal Margarita addiction has lead me to a diet of mostly Mexican food lately. Haha. Great out door's type restaurant with salsa music fun festiv atmosphere.  Summer time is here.

Borough Market chocolate and strawberries are a must have if you visit London.  They are worth every calorie!!

My grandmother who lives out of state was in the area, so we all went out to dinner together at a Thai restaurant in the city. I had grilled salmon with sticky jasmine rice and steamed vegetables, and cheesecake for dessert (one of the dessert options that I was really curious to try was a lychee cheesecake spring roll, but sadly they were out of it). It was all really good!

I couldn't finish all of my entree (the portions were very generous) so I'll have the leftovers for lunch tomorrow!

This looks like it was a delicious meal, and so special with your grand ma visiting. 💖 @caitbird

Last night's dinner, courtesy of my wonderful mom: Southwest scramble and fresh sliced oranges. Delicious!

[CynthieLu]

Your mom makes lovely looking dinners @caitbird 👌This looks good!

[caitbird]

@CynthieLu  Thank you! She is an amazing cook, we are very lucky!

[CynthieLu]

You can tell she puts love into her dishes for you and your family @caitbird 💜 Do you have a favorite meal she makes? 

[caitbird]

@CynthieLu  ooh, that's tough, she makes so many good things! I will say, she makes amazing pizza - it's so much better than the kind you can get for takeout, with loads of veggies and sometimes even homemade pesto sauce. She makes a lasagna every Christmas that is out of this world delicious, too.
