made some avocado toast for The Kid's lunch earlier and ate HER leftovers for a change, which was half of the egg-less one.

Estimating 159 calories for what i ate.

Looks so good.
I love love love avacodo!! I’ve never had avacodo with an egg?!
Fried or over easy eggs are the only eggs I can eat. Scrambling post sleeve gross me out. Smell of them cooking and the taste.

Y’all DO NOT add kelp noodles into just boiled Water with baking soda or you’ll end up with peanut noodle Soup. 🤦‍♀️ Lesson learned.

At least they were soft…. 🤷‍♀️ Maybe next time I’ll just use really hot tap water.

Also, ate 3 bites and was grossed out so had Cereal with a Protein Shake instead.

Bresola with crème fraiche & fresh grated horse radish. Super easy to prep & to eat. Took it my cousins for a pre Christmas drink. Forgot to take the before pxt but took one after the plate had done the first round of the guests. Unfortunately we don’t get those ginormous tree branch sized horse radish roots you see on UK cooking shows. Just sad looking, wizened roots.

toast two ways:

(1) Peanut Butter and jam, and (2) lemon curd

ate all the pb&j but didn't care for the lemon curd. waaaaay too sweet without some whipped cream or something.

estimated 237 calories for what i ate.

no one wanted my leftovers so its in the trash.

All airfried to a crisp: Dim sum radish cake (100 cal), 3 gyoza (97 cal). My dip was garlic, black pepper, soy sauce, black vinegar. One of my favorite meals. Weighed 140g, I ate it all...

Sunday Brunch- I hated everything but the tea so no calories count 🤣

Fish and chips ( I only ate a few chips and some slaw) & french toast (only took one bite)

White wine and garlic mussels with artichoke hearts. Ate about roughly half of each (aside from the sauce)… a surprisingly high amount of protein!

dinnertime:

a lazy man's panzenella salad of sorts...really just tomatoes, croutons and cheese tossed with greek dressing.

the croutons got to soggy for my taste by the time i got to about 2/3 through.

448 cals for the bowl, will adjust the cals later if im not too lazy.

Last night dinner: Left over Hibachi veggies and I added grilled chicken! YUMMM

226 Cals. 28g Protein for all of it. I didn't bother adjusting the serving because the little bit I left wasn't really changing the calories enough to matter.

my how times have changed.

3 years ago i would have avoided bread like the plague. nowadays not so much. i think I've had some sort of bread product every day for the past few weeks!

case in point: toast, bacon, egg and some seasonings.

+ plus an espresso martini beforehand (not shown)

would've been 450 cals is i ate it all, but since Mr. swiped half of it, i adjusted to 296 cals after this screenshot was taken.

well i'm glad you asked. I've wanted to pass on my knowledge for some time, LOL.

1) put eggs in pot and fill with cold Water until just covered (any more and you'll have to adjust the cooking time)

2) dump some salt in, and a tsp of white vinegar (vinegar helps with the peeling after)

3) put burner on high and set timer for 9 mins (i.e., don't pre-boil the water)

4) drain the hot water, fill with cold water and dump a handful of ice cubes in there to cool.

5) after 5 or so mins, peel the eggs with a teaspoon (tap the egg all around with the spoon to crack then slip the spoon under the shell and slide around to loosen, and it will just slip right off.)

6) ENJOY!

THANKS!

I will give this a try, I love soft boiled eggs but never properly achieve them.

Either hard or raw..haha
