Since having a bug a few weeks ago, I haven’t felt like eating lots of things, and have kept my diet fairly plain and simple. I must be getting better because I am fancying more things, and gradually reintroducing them while also keeping an eye on the calories! Feeling poorly helped me lose weight, I don’t want to start putting it on again!
So today, after a busy morning teaching my conversational English class, I came home and after a cup of tea began to ponder on what I wanted for a light lunch. I decided on a little salad, and took some mixed leaves, then I had an avocado so I cut half of it into little cubes, then I thought I needed a little texture, so added some cubes of the cornbread I made a day or so ago… last of all, I still didn’t feel like my usual dressing of olive oil and pomegranate syrup so I just had a small dollop of extra-light mayonnaise…
A small bowl of my simple salad and now I feel up and ready for my French conversation class this afternoon where I am a student not a teacher!


idea – instead of mayonnaise, I mix up in a small bowl a little of x-virgin olive oil, french mustard and plain unsweetened yoghurt….makes a lovely and healthy salad cream 😉

Yoghurt… what a brilliant idea… don’t know why I didn’t think of that!! Thanks Stephanie – I might add English mustard instead for a bit of a kick!
