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? 😄

@CynthieLu, thank you; I got a better handle of bake time, etc. by the 2nd and 3rd trays. I still tested a cookie from the other trays, just to make sure they tasted okay. ha!

Sounds like a good way to spend a day stuck inside, @itsfi 😉.

@CookieGirl1, lol, my tummy agrees with you.

This is what I called snuggly breakfast or mid day snack @itsfi 😘. It’s better if you don’t have to work and just take your time to enjoy this combo 😘

[itsfi]

@blackkitty2014, this was a fun one to try - I may have had more than just the two cookies. It was all in the name of quality control though. 🤣

@itsfi  This photo makes me all kinds of happy- I love the pink reindeer!

@Ispend2much6, thank you; no complaints with the treats.

Two dinners from last week!

 

The Pitas are my absolute favorite we've had so far! And the one I almost didn't pick. With Hello Fresh you pick the recipes from that week you want. I was really hesitant, I've never had them before and for some reason always avoided them. Glad I went against my guy!

The second one is Jammy Bacon & Gouda melt sandwiches. I gave this 3/4 something about the jam and onions together was a bit off...but I've also pretty much have had a diet of cough drops for the last two weeks so that could be it too. 

We have another box of 2 dinners coming this week then a big break.

@Samtian Both dishes look great! I love hearing about your Hello Greah journey. I am sorry to hear you have not been feeling well. I hope ypu are getting better 🥰

[CynthieLu]

Trying something new is risky but yeahy! It turned out to be a win this time @Samtian 😃 hope you feel better!

[itsfi]

l love Greek and Mediterranean food @Samtian. Your pita sandwich looks delicious! Very cool that you ventured out and tried something new! 

[Ispend2much6]

@Samtian  You seem to be having a lot of fun with these.  Something about them is really fun; I learned some new ways of cooking from a couple of these box companies, but then forgot. lol

[peculiarzmakeup]

This looks so tasty! @Samtian amazing flavor combos! 😎

[CorgiMommy]

@Samtian those both look yummy

[Samtian]

@CorgiMommy Mmm they were!

[CookieGirl1]

The pitas do look yummy, @Samtian.  That's cool that you've gotten to try out so many new types of foods as a result of using Hello Fresh 🙂

[Samtian]

@CookieGirl1 Thank you! I think it's great! Especially things I'd never have bothered with before. I get a lot of recipes saved online and magazines and never make anything. This makes me not be so lazy. 

[caitbird]

@Samtian  these look delicious, and the pitas sound amazing! This is reminding me that we have a really good Greek restaurant nearby and it's been way too long since I had anything there!

P.S. Sorry you haven't been feeling well? I hope you feel better!

[Samtian]

@caitbird Thank you! I just have a persistent cough ugh. Ooh I wish I had a Greek restaurant near me! What are your favorite kinds of Greek food?

[caitbird]

@Samtian  aw that sucks, I hope your cough clears up ASAP!

Ooh good question. The Greek restaurant near me makes amazing pitas with falafels and hummus - mmm, so good! And I love anything with feta - I think that's Greek, right?! 😂

[Samtian]

@caitbird It is! I need to try falafels.
