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? 😄

[Samtian]

@CynthieLu Ooh! My fair's funnel cakes never look like that!

[CynthieLu]

This one was a mountain @Samtian but worth it 😋

[eshoe]

[CynthieLu]

[CookieGirl1]

@CynthieLu wow, that looks elaborate, lol.

[CynthieLu]

It was hefty 😂 @CookieGirl1 more than enough to share lol

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu That looks amazing. It sounds like there are a lot of fun food events around you. Oreo funnel cake?!? YUM!

[CynthieLu]

The early fall/late summer we have a good variety of them. @Mellmars1185. it's pretty lucky 😄

These and a cucumber are dinner tonight. 

Highly recommend!

 

[heartsmyface]

@Ispend2much6  Awww yeah!   That’s my kinda dinner!  Add a store bought rotisserie chicken and it’s a gourmet meal! 😄

[Ispend2much6]

@heartsmyface. Great taste!  Another good thing is that with the variety for some reason I'm satisfied with less food.

[Mellmars1185]

@Ispend2much6 I love dips. I havr never tried labneh before. After doing a google search, it sounds delicious.

[Ispend2much6]

@Mellmars1185   It is!  It reminds me of a cross between cream cheese and yogurt.  It's great for making your own dips.

@Ispend2much6 I’m coming over! I’ll bring some pita bread!

[Ispend2much6]

@JoSometimes   Okay, but is the pita homemade?  I expect nothing less from you. 😂

[JoSometimes]

@Ispend2much6 If only I could bake as well as I cook!

[heartsmyface]

@JoSometimes  You can do it!  It’s soooo easy!!  It’s like making tortillas!  Warning though- once you start making your own you will NEVER enjoy store bought again;) 

[JoSometimes]

@heartsmyface @Ispend2much6 Thanks for the vote of confidence! Maybe I’ll look up some recipes. 😊

[Ispend2much6]

Bet you could @JoSometimes .  Pita are easy.  It's a simple dough, rolled into balls, rolled into circles with a rolling pin, then baked at a high heat on a baking stone and they puff up like magic!

[JoSometimes]

@Ispend2much6 It would be fun to try someday. I think it’s more of a patience thing or lack-thereof. I usually taste as I go but with baking, I don’t get to do that. 😅
