Detox Days

Well after our rather indulgent weekend, and the fact that the waistband seems to have tightened just a wee bit, this week was devoted to detoxing my body. So that pretty much meant only fruit, vege and legumes, which makes for mostly boring food, hence the lack of photos. Though Thursdays dinner was the exception, still meeting my detox plan, it was full of flavour, healthy and also looked good!

Roasted Vege with Quinoa



Pumpkin, kumara, yam, onion, courgette and asparagus, dusted with smoked paprika, salt and pepper, roasted and served upon a bed of quinoa, drizzled with some grassy extra virgin olive oil.

I certainly am feeling better for my detox, but i'm back to normal food now and just focusing on making healthy choices and having smaller portions.

A catch up from Miss Too Damn Busy

Hello to all my readers,

I do apologise for the lack of posts around here lately, it has been so busy lately. With busy-ness came to many takeaways rather than home cooked, nutritious meals; then there was the 'my camera doesn't won't to work' days, followed by a desperate need for vege intake. And lets face it, a meal of steak or chicken with a massive serving of steamed vege is just not that exciting to either photograph or to look at.

So the first photo I managed to take was of last Thursday's (4/10) meal. A warm salad of lamb, kumara, courguette & asparagus, dressed with a tahini, yoghurt & orange dressing.





Very tasty and very healthy!

One of the meals I very much enjoyed, but due to the cameras hissy fit, couldn't photo, was a Middle Eastern inspired Cottage Pie. I will be making this again shortly and this time, I promise I will be taking photos......even if I have to use my camera phone to get them!
