LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Indeed, what are we like! Suckers for heartburn! ha

When i went to salou last year it was just 1 week after finishing TFR i had the most severe heartburn ever. I put it down to the vodka! Still didnt stop me drinking it like it was going out of fashion every night!!!!

 

[kered]

Chocolate, pastry and oranges all give me heartburn. But....pastry is definitely the worst culprit.

thanks jan and mary, I dont liked smoked I am afraid, takes me back to when I was in care, and made to eat it, I used to go to the toilet with it wrapped in a hanky and try and flush it down the toilet, you can imagine, it just used to float on the top, it took ages to get rid of. :8855: Will look for the recipe for slimming world chips as I think hubby would like it like that. It doesn't say smoked on the packet so hopefully it will be ok.

 

[kered]

Just peel your chips and place them on a tray, either squirt with frylite or just use a spoonful of olive oil in a bag and shake them about. Sprinkle with cracked black pepper, sea salt, paprika, or anything of your choice and bake in a hot oven for about half an hour, turning occassionally. My favourite.

I have to peel a cucumber...EVEN organic because it is the one thing that gives me heartburn (when I am being good)......choc, and everything else when I am being very naughty!!!

Love SW chips..oh, I had some sweet potatoes last night. Cut them up into small squares, cooked them in water in micro for a few mins...then got the spray lite, some paprika and black/red pepper and cooked them in the oven...LUVLY JUBLY!!

 

[kered]

I only tried the sweet potato once, but just made it like a normal jacket potato, I haven't tried it again since.

Jury is still out as to whether I like it or not.

 

[joy1]

will try those chips tonight Mary, they sound yum.

 

[JanD]

I love sweet potatoes, I like them baked too.

The river cobbler will be yellow if it's smoked Joy - white if not. Hope you enjoy it xx

Right!! Back on track now

Friday 28th May

Breakie - 2 weetabix, blueberries, splenda & skimmed milk

Lunch - I'm going to make a salad now and one to take to work. I'll have fish with this one - pilchards or sardines whatever's in cupboard and I have a hankering for chicken so I'm going to Asda to get one that I'll cook & have over my 3 nights with salad.

Tea - Pasta bolognese. I've got a small jar of the light dolmio sauce (usually make my own but I'll use this up) which I'll add to mince & mushrooms.

I think I might get some of the packs of prepared fruit to take to work too pineapple, mango etc & maybe some ff from frais (not sure if asda have that) or plain yoghurt ... hmmm mouth's watering! xx

Welcome back to 'back on track' Jan.

 

[joy1]

whew!!!!:8855: the river cobbler is white, I steer away from yellow fish must be instinct. I think its was finny haddock I used to flush down the loo. I am still traumatised

 

[summergurl]

Welcome back aboard mrs D!! Well, i say welcome i aint even there meself!!! :giggle:

 

[JanD]

Adding 2 pears to today's consumption x

Up to now I've spent 2 hours installing software and trying to get it to work. I've managed some of it but I still need to reduce the size of the photos to upload them - DH will have to help me with that. xx

 

[Scotsmist]

menu looking good Jan! You will get back into the swing of things in no time at all!

I must try this river cobbler that you all talk about..never seen it at all! It is frozen?

 

[kered]

Iris I buy it fresh from the fish counter at Tesco.

 

[Scotsmist]

what does it taste like??? apart from the obvious.FISH :8855:
Is it salt water fish? Must have a look..dont tend to shop there, but will make a special effort as the fish variety in UK is pretty naff and get fed up eating the same old same old !!

 

[kered]

I find it just a bit of a milder taste to cod. I love the white one and the smoked one. Fraction of the price of cod though.

 

[Scotsmist]

I will try it Mary..ta

 

[JanD]

Deffo worth a try - they have it in our Asda as well - but not Sainsbury's. We had the lightly dusted one tonight. It's a nice mild fish - I don't lke anything too 'fishy'. Pollock is nice too.

Breakie - 2 weetabix etc

Bed

Tea - Lighty dusted river cobbler & stir fry. A pear

Work - Chicken salad with balsamic, piece bread with low fat spread & tiny bit of coleslaw, small fruit salad with total 0% yog.

NB ... Nothing extra in work last night or in Mum's this morning (pat's self on back! ) xx
