As part of the workout plan it is suggested that you eat clean, which I mostly ignored. It seems to be lots of lean proteins and broccoli 😉 However I did look at some of the recipes out there and a couple appealed, including this Cauliflower rice.
Using leftover turkey (or maybe even ham), rice, a couple of eggs and some Chinese 5 spices you can whip up a very quick taste Christmassy dinner.
This is another idea from Nigella’s latest cook book “Kitchen”. You can win a copy by filling in this questionnaire.
This recipe caught my eye by being a little bit different but still firmly in the “safe” category. This is something I could make and know it would work out fine.
Now please don’t take away my food blogging license – but I am going to tell you a secret. Until Friday I had never boiled an egg.
I’ve fried eggs, poached them, scrambled them, made omelettes and frittatas but I’ve never hard or soft boiled an egg.
For dinner I tonight I made this Apricot Chicken, which I had seen over at For the Love of Cooking last week.
Being on holiday is wonderful, your bed gets made for you, there is no cleaning to do, and you don’t have to make your own meals. Unfortunately I kind of enjoy making my own food!
After a week when the only vegetables I saw were between a burger and a bun it was necessary to get some vegetables and healthy food into me. Lunch today was a large salad, not unlike this Tomato and Red Pepper Salad, the crisp fresh lettuce leaves were a world away from the pale limp ones I found inside any burger.
