Food thread...

[floppit]

I thought a thread for favourite fast and at least half healthy food ideas might be fun.

Here's a few of mine:
Corn fed chicken roasted stuffed with lemon and glazed with fresh parsley/lemon juice.

Triple banana milkshake - 3 smoothed bananas + about a pint of skimmed milk.

ooooo and posh yoghurts!

oooo and strawberries and cream - but I think this week might be the last.

Oh OH - I can't forget, you can eat blue cheese IF it's piping hot, so blue cheese and fresh rocket pasta sauce.

Don't know why, but I've been craving fruit like mad!! Apples, pears, oranges, melons...you name it, I want it! I used to be a big sweets eater...cakes, ice cream, custard - now, I can't even think of the stuff without gagging.

I've also grown fond of dark meat chicken...used to only eat the breast, but now it's the dark meat I crave...hmmm...maybe an iron deficiency? Oh, and soups...all kinds, but mostly clear ones - I just had an Italian wedding soup with barley, spinach and beef...which was delicious.

Coco Pops - thats all I can eat

Utter crap - nothing decent at all

These should come with the first bounty pack instead of enough leaflets to fell a small forest!

Oh yes - SOUP!!! I like fish soup (I know I'm freaky!) I treated myself to 2 tins of Baxters Cullin Skink at over £2 a bleedin' tin! But it is the world's BEST fish soup.

And I've been suppin' vegatable bullion like mad!

I LOVE beans on wholemeal toast!! Yummy. I recently read that beans have a massive salt content though, so I am swapping to low-salt ones.

I am really craving satsumas too, but they're not quite in season yet....gah!!

 

[scottishterrier]

I've been mostly eating

Nectarines
Grapes

Homemade soup

Nectarines
Grapes
McDonalds Chicken selects and sweet chilli sauce
Bombay mix
Apricots (dried and fresh)

I think I might have had my first craving today. I woke up wanting pancakes with chopped banana, maple syrup and whipped cream!!

I bought a pancake mix on my way back from work and I'm now STUFFED!!

 

[GBLiz]

hehe ive been eating pancakes for the last few days too. Did you eat the whole packet in one go? I did (6 massive pancakes) then regretted it!!!

i ate like a bottomless pit all weekend. Weighed myself this morning and i've LOST a pound

 

[Urchin]

I've never eated so much beans on toast in my entire life... I love it at the moment!!

Also loving hot crossed buns or cinnamon and raisin loaf.

It's weird:

breakfast, have to be careful, maybe a piece of toast

Lunch, always know exactly what and what I MUST have: eg I want tuna sandwich or beans/toast and thats it.

Tea... can eat just about anything, it doesn't matter.

I've been craving shrimp lately...cooked shrimp should be okay during pregnancy, right?

 

[timsmom]

ha ha Ginny marie...my last pregnancy all I could eat was tinned peaches, absolutely loved em..I think you're having boy!!! I think it was a good thing now as the only sweet thing my son eats is fruit!!!

 

[DebbieM]

Hmm.. I like...

Waffles
Rice Krisppies
Ready Brek

Cheese sandwiches on wholemeal

i love brie and not being able to have it is driving me to distraction; i was even dreaming about it the other night

is there anything safe to eat that has the same sort of taste? please dont say philadelphia cos that just won't cut it!!!!

 

[Rosebay]

I'd like a nice glass of wine Ho hum! It will be a fantastic tasting wine by next April!

I am eating a lot of bread products, much like last time. Muffins, crumpets and marmite on toast. I think it's the blandness that I like. Also I'm liking eggs which I am usually dead funny about. I am a veggie though and so I think it's a protein thing. I'm also drinking a lot of soya milk.

Last time I had a proper and long-lasting craving for bananas. I was eating 6 or 7 a day, and banana flavour milk and banana chips and I ended up having a little monkey!

You can eat brie IF it's thoroughly heated. What about brie cheese toasties? Or grilled brie with bacon butties?

I'm coping with the need for blue cheese via hot blue cheese pasta sauce!
