Unpictured is my morning coffee fix with ALMOND milk. In the past few months I have converted from trim milk to rice milk and now to almond milk and I think I am in love. In the past I tried almond milk and it was soooo disgusting. I had been reading all my favourite food bloggers raving about almond milk and I just thought they were all bonkers! Until I came across Almond Breeze! YUMMM!
Moving onto lunch, on Sunday I prepared my weekday lunches by knocking up a batch of quinoa 'fried rice' I adapted the recipe from one of my favourite websites of all time. (my version just included a frozen pack of asian greens because I ran out of fresh veggies)
This was actually my first time trying quinoa and I LIKE it... a lot :)
My tummy was getting a tad rumbly mid afternoon so I prepared one of my squeeze tubes of tomato soup. A few people asked about these last week and I think they are pretty new to Australia. They look to be condensed tomato soup (and other tomato based soups varieties) in a tube. You just squeeze the contents into a mug and fill with boiling water. It tastes pretty good to me, so if you like tomato soup and if you can find it. Give it a try. I am loving them because they are easy to make, portable and perfect for work!
For dinner I was feeling pretty lazy after a big day at work so I just cut up an onion, popped it into a fry pan with some lean mince, added some frozen spinach (I bagged and froze a bunch of spinach after a bumper garden crop), an egg and 100g of feta.
I divided the mixture among ramekins and topped with puff pastry. Into the oven until the pastry was crispy and dinner was served!
It was a bit of an indulgence but oh so yummy!
I think the boy agrees :)
To finish my WIAW, let me leave you with this pretty bunch of roses!
Thanks so much for reading! I love reading the comments that you lovely people leave :)
Oh Cornetto's. How I love thee. Especially on hot summer days. And how great is Almond Breeze? Like, the best thing ever. And I agree, Skinnytaste is fantastic :)

ReplyDeleteI'm obsessed with asparagus! My favorite way to prepare it is by roasting it in the oven w/ olive oil and s&p. So simple, but so delicious!
ReplyDeleteYUM!!! I love asparagus :)
