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? 😄

@Mellmars1185  How cool- a frozen waterfall!  Dinner sounds perfect!  I hope you had a good time.

[Mellmars1185]

Chili and dark chocolate fig scones, cucumbers and spinach dip.

The scone is from a mix from Invisible Chef.  Their mixes are pretty good, but the scones are my favorite.  I don't know what they do to them, as the ingredients are simple, but they work.

@Ispend2much6 Looks Delicious!

@Mellmars1185  My family LOVES chili, and yet I rarely make it.

@Ispend2much6 it's such a comfy looking meal 😍😋

[Ispend2much6]

@Skunk12puzzola  Thank you!  I used Aldi's chili seasoning packets (low sodium ones.)  Works every time!

[CookieGirl1]

@Ispend2much6 Yum, nothing like chili on a cold night!

[Ispend2much6]

@CookieGirl1. Very true, but we're having a run of 70 degree weather! I think Punxatawney Phil was wrong.

@Ispend2much6 whaaaat?!  I'm coming over to YOUR house.  70 degrees weather and your homemade chili?  Sign me up 😎

[Ispend2much6]

@CookieGirl1  Well you'd better hurry up because we only have one more day before winter returns! 😂But probably temporarily.

[Saradestin]

@Ispend2much6 Wow, that looks amazing! 😋😋😋 Delicious!!

[Ispend2much6]

@Saradestin. Thank you!

Something quite simple and that combines so well! Home roasted peppers with some good canned tuna, seasoned with extra virgin olive oil and Modena vinegar. Exquisite! 

[Mellmars1185]

@Saradestin Yummy!

[Saradestin]

@Mellmars1185 It’s a great salad. Those ingredients together taste amazing! 

[Skunk12puzzola]

@Saradestin yes girl 🧡 modena vinegar, it's from here 😁

[Saradestin]

I know @Skunk12puzzola , and it the best!! 

[Ispend2much6]

@Saradestin  That's great inspiration there!  I can't eat veggie skins, so I keep a bunch of the peppers in the freezer.  It's not so much trouble doing a bunch at a time because they freeze well.
