Made some old favourites today… Courgette grilled cheese and some chicken and veg muffins 😋😜 . As someone who prefers savoury food over sweet, I really wanted to make a snack muffin that was healthy and filling. The chicken and veg muffins are perfect for that and don’t taste the same twice 🤷‍♀️ but always yum ☺️ . #chicken #muffins #courgette #zuchinni #grilledcheese #bread #sandwich #tasty #lush #metalhead #healthyfood #foodie #healthylifestyle #comfortfood #easyfood #snack #highprotein #cheese #veg #lowcarb (themuffins) #lowcalorie https://www.instagram.com/p/CRMrHfKgwlp/?utm_medium=tumblr

Almond crusted courgette sticks . I’ve been thinking about trying these for a while, and I’m glad I did 😋 I didn’t tweak the recipe much this time, just added some chopped fresh basil to the dry ingredients 😚👌 .

Chicken Marsala (again) . Recipe from @8fit but I make this recipe but omitting the flour and frying the chicken with just the seasoning on . This time the only editing I did to this photo was a small tilt shift and smidgin of vignette. All colours are true.. thanks to the sunlight outside ☀️ . Also, not pictured is the second handful of salad that when dumped on my plate, covered the whole thing 😁😇 . #marsala #chicken #mushrooms #wine #tasty #highprotein #lowcarb #dairyfree #foodporn #glutenfree #foodstagram #wininganddining #healthylifestyle #healthyfoodie #foodie #friedchicken #healthychicken #easy #drinkingtherestofthebottle #tipsy #salad #reductionsauce #metalheadchick #metalhead #spring #springtime (at Abingdon, Oxfordshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/COaZVcKg5YM/?igshid=1bbtmy4sdkypr

🤤 . The flavour of the mushrooms and the flavour of the sun-dried tomato paste is .. 😘👌 . Flat mushrooms (gills and stems removed), shove in the oven for 15 ish mins on gas 4, blot dry, top with sun-dried tomato paste, then sliced olives, then mozzarella, and finally a sprinkling of a garlic grinder and salt, shove back in the oven for another 10 ish mins 😋😜 I’ve served mine with a handful of spinach because I’ve run out of pea-shoots/lambs lettuce 🙄 .

Tomorrow’s lunch.. . Mushrooms, carrots and chickpeas with a splash of white wine and herbs. . I sweat some chopped onions and garlic paste, then chucked in some sliced mushrooms and cooked until soft then added a splash of white wine, a can of chickpeas, a can of baby carrots, some dried basil and some dried chives. Stirring occasionally, until everything is cooked. . I haven’t tasted it yet, because I was so full from the last (beef and beans) pot I made.. but it smells amazing. I’ll probably cook some couscous tomorrow morning for some carbs to go with it - can’t wait 😋 . #healthy #healthyfood #weightlossjourney #healthymakesmehappy #foodie #healthyeating #healthyrecipes #onepotmeal #vegetarian #vegan #glutenfree (until I add the couscous) #foodstagram #foodpics #foodphotography #healthkick #overtime #easyrecipes #easymeal #prep #cookahead (at Abingdon, Oxfordshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHYii_kHRgr/?igshid=lw7d3be9vy28

Ooh lalaaa.... first actual recipe that I’ve used with my multi cooker.. spicy (ish) beef mince, peppers and beans sprinkled with a bit of cheese. . This tastes great, although I think I put liquid in when I shouldn’t have, buuuut 🤷‍♀️ However, it is making me more determined to figure this contraption out 🤔 . #weightlossjourney #multicooker #beef #peppers #bellpeppers #beans #easy #foodie #healthyfoodie #figuringthisshitout #tasty #amateurcook #foodporn #lowcarb #foodpic #foodstagram #highprotein #healthymeal https://www.instagram.com/p/CHVH4O3nmNW/?igshid=axfge40hg8lu

Today’s burger 😋 The burger was so nice I even finished the skin on fries first ... (I wish I’d switched them to thick chips) Loved the non-crispy bacon too ☺️ . #burger #burgers #burgerporn #foodporn #foodstagram #food #foodphotography #foodie #cheatmeal #juicy #bacon #lush #lushfood #baconcheeseburger #meltedcheese #melting #toastedbuns #chargrilled #chargrilledburger #lunchout #oxford (at The Royal Sun, Begbroke) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHAs_duncVL/?igshid=12h51klgcu58e

Lunch at the Nags Head... @rhianwenbeint’s 65th birthday present to dad 🥳 . Starter was tempura fried broccoli 🤤🤤 😍 (those bubbles in that batter 🤩😍) and main course was double beef burger with cheese and bacon 😋😋 (not pictured - thick chips 😋😜) Last picture is mum’s cauliflower steak meal, which she describes as “exceptional” 😃 . #lunchout #saturday #foodporn #burgerporn #veggies #tempura #batter #fries #friedfood #beef #bacon #meltedcheese #cheese #lightandcrispy #crispy #crispybroccoli #foodlover #foodie #chips #thickchips #familytime #goodtimes #closeup #foodphotography #foodstagram #lush #cheatmeal (at The Nag's Head on the Thames) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGuqnHCHmRR/?igshid=14peuwrzoirnb

Stir-fried chicken and vegetables with rice noodles. Something quick and light for today’s supper and tomorrow’s lunch.. . I stir-fried the chicken in garlic flavoured oil until cooked then set aside, fried some frozen peppers and some frozen mushrooms then added the rice noodle bundles (substitute for rice), pouring water on the bundles and getting them to soak up the excess liquid while smushing them around to make them more malleable. Then I added some noodle broth and the chicken back in and mixed everything together before serving up into my bowl and my lunch tub 😋 . #8fitrecipe #8fit #mealplan #foodie #foodiesofinstagram #healthyfood #healthylifestyle #highprotein #lowcholesterol #dairyfree #glutenfree #healthyfoodie #foodporn #noodles #chicken #friedchicken #stirfry #veggies #foodphotography #foodstagram #healthymakesmehappy #weightlossjourney #healthjourney #onedayatatime #wecandothis 🤗 #hugs https://www.instagram.com/p/CEPaCDknZUj/?igshid=1vewecnk2cilh

So.. here are my waking distances for last month’s #greatbritishultrachallenge. The heat has been killing my energy, so ended up doing less than I hoped but still managed to get to the 50k I’d signed up for 🥳 looking forward to beating it this month 😝 . #walking #distances #challenge #50k #julychallenge #exercise #competingagainstmyself #virtualchalllenge #icandothis https://www.instagram.com/p/CDYkWxPHZt_/?igshid=1uzu7s138gil6

Chicken with courgette, mushrooms, carrot and broccoli.. another favourite from @8fit . I cooked the mushrooms first before chucking in the carrots and frozen broccoli (I don’t eat enough of it to buy it fresh), then I added the courgette and a mushroom stock pot. Split the pan between my lunch tub and bowl before realising I hadn’t added the spring onions so I mixed them in fresh. Flattened the chicken and cooked it through. . #mealplan #8fit #homecooked #tasty #foodporn #chicken #vegetables #broccoli #courgette #healthy #healthymeal #healthyfoodie #foodphotography #foodstagram #foodie #lifestyle #lifestylechange #lowcarb #highprotein #lowsugar #glutenfree #dairyfree #lightlunch #lightsupper #mushrooms https://www.instagram.com/p/CDHao9VHVcy/?igshid=19iuerfu17g7x

Chicken and prosciutto salad for lunch woop woop!! 😜 . Tomatoes, olives, cucumber, salad leaves - Chinese leaf is my favourite, cooked chicken breast, spring onion - sliced and prosciutto - torn up, because otherwise it rolls itself into a lump. Everything else is cut into bite size pieces #lush . #salad #dairyfree #lowfat #highprotein #mealplan #chicken #prosciutto #olives #quick #quickmeals #foodporn #saladporn #tasty #foodie #healthyfoodie #favourite #foodstagram #foodphotography #healthylifestyle #healthyeating #healthymakesmehappy #nojunkfood https://www.instagram.com/p/CC-VI4PHxl6/?igshid=xkyyaluatsxv

Tonight’s supper 😋 This is @8fit ‘s Turkey, Herb and Cheese Rolls.. . I needed to use up the last of my tortilla boats, so I just layered everything as follows: lambs lettuce, sliced chicken (didn’t have any turkey), soft cheese - spread onto the chicken, sliced spring onions, dried chives, and cucumber. . These are great for a light supper after a long day at work 😌 . #mealplan #8fitrecipe #foodporn #healthy #healthylifestyle #salad #highprotein #lowcholesterol #foodstagram #foodphotography #healthyfoodie #lifestylechange #lightsupper #quickmeal #homemade https://www.instagram.com/p/CC9FQElnq9C/?igshid=c0himynljru9

Half fell off the wagon last week due to being exhausted from walking so much, and I know the bad eating contributed to the exhaustion. Oh well.. I’m back on the wagon with gusto, and here’s what I have for supper tonight and lunch tomorrow.. . Red lentil pasta with turkey and green bean ragu. I’m looking forward to this after craving vegetables having eaten half a pizza 😱 . Cook pasta as usual, heat frying pan (with/without oil) add garlic paste, add turkey - stir/mush until cooked, add extras - green beans, onions, tomato sauce, etc.. cook off a little liquid from ragu, I like to add a stock pot, heat a little longer then plate up 😋 . #glutenfree #highprotein #lowfat #greenbeans #lentilpasta #turkey #quickmeals #mealplan #8fitrecipe #8fitmealplan #foodstagram #foodporn #foodphotography #lifestyle #foodie #healthyfoodie #healthymeal #filling #homecooking #homecooked https://www.instagram.com/p/CC1UQDYn527/?igshid=1tedl8zsx33ij
