More "other" food

It has become apparent that I cook entirely different meals for me vs my fam & friends. I kinda swore I wouldn't and everyone would just eat what I ate, but it stopped working that way when no one wanted salad... Again 😂

Small potato, sauteed broccoli normandy, pan fried tilapia

My burger on a matzah with salad and beets

P.S. It's always beets 😂

OMG! Not only is she beautiful - she can cook, too! This looks delish and I'm not even a fish girl - although I have heard Tilapia has less of a fishy taste and smell?

dinner last night and lunch today. Raw cauliflower, broccoli, red grapes, cheddar cheese, chicken, red onions + slivered almonds tossed in light dijon mustard vinaigrette. Best the next day after marinating... Serving dish for hubby and myself. Forgot to show my serving size probably 1 ½ cups, and the after dish. New to this thread. Soooo, I'll get with the program. LOL.

Quickyquick meal: Uncle Ben's microwave rice with a Japanese spice mix ("Furikake") on top and Alnatura's lentil burgers out of the oven. Couldn't eat it all. Rice is way too filling for me.

That Soup looks fantastic, I need to find a good recipe, feel free to share!

No picture of tonight’s dinner because I forgot to take a picture. We had burgers and oven fries.

*Heads up when ordering Instacart. They have to substitute a lot of items right now which is understandable. I ordered burger patties from costco which were sold out and replaced with a different box of burger patties. I was planning dinner and plugging the numbers into MFP... lo and behold one patty is 330 calories! No bun, no cheese just the meat and It wasn’t even that big. I had half a burger, since 330 is a lot for me considering I’m maintaining on 1300 a day, plus I REALLY wanted oven fries!

It was a very good burger, fat=flavor is true with burgers.

Anyway, be ready for substitutions!

Ohhhhhh thanks ! I'm a fish person (only certain kinds-kosher) but I think tilapia is milder than other white fleshed fish and definitely less aromatic than other bright fleshed types.

(It's is not favorite because I do prefer fishy fish LOL but is a very soft entry into fish for someone wanting to try fish)

I haven't tried jackfruit yet, how does the flavor and texture compare to other meat alternatives?

Dried jackfruit is lightly sweet. So when dried it's not really meat substitute.

Oh I understand.

Have you tried pulled/shredded jackfruit (I think its a sub for pulled meat/BBQ)?

The Asian grocery store has canned jackfruit but I don't know if that is canned in sweet Syrup or in brine. I have to take a look next time I shop there.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
