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? 😄

@AlexBess I hope your new diet will help you feel better. I have also had anemia. Take care 💕

Inspired by @Ispend2much6 i also bought the ramen kit! I added an egg and broccoli slaw. Recommendation was on point - this was super satisfying and flavorful! A great alternative to ordering in!

@Kim888. Broccoli slaw- genius! No chopping needed!

[Mellmars1185]

@Kim888 Looks delicious! I love adding egg to my broth 😋

Yesterday I made a beef stew in my Instapot. Tonight I made a chicken soup. It was my first time making a chicken soup like this. I have to say I was proud of myself. It was simple, low cost and easy.

I love chicken soup. Yours looks so comforting @Mellmars1185!

[Mellmars1185]

@itsfi Thank you 😊 It was a big hit with the family. I made it again 🍲

Your soup looks really good 🤩 @Mellmars1185 Those noodles are so yummy too! 

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu Thanks so much! I like the shape. They are like big rice pieces

[CookieGirl1]

@Mellmars1185 Kinda wish I had an instapot.  Do you use yours often?

[Mellmars1185]

@CookieGirl1 I use it once in a while but I am going to start using it more. It makes life easier. I just need to find more recipes and ideas for meals.

@CookieGirl1 @I have an Instapot and when we got it we would use it all the time. Perfect for soap and beef stew and you can make other things in it.

@SportyGirly125 they look so convenient!
