Here’s proof that we didn’t eat out for every meal while we were in the south west. We made so much home cooked food that we had enough for 2-3 meals!
Crunchy jumbo shell tacos are the best:
I prepared way too many vegetables for the taco mix, only used about 30% of the carrot I grated :S
Another night we made pasta with beef mince, crushed tomatoes, italian herbs and HEAPS of diced vegetables:
Not sure how appetising some of this looks but I enjoyed them!! By the way – pasta for breakfast is excellent.
I absolutely looove frozen berries, especially blueberries! I found these fantastically sweet-tasting ones in a 1kg bag in a Northern suburbs IGA. Not sure which company they’re from but they are just labelled: “Berry Fruits: Mixed berries” and appear to have been packaged in Balcatta. I’ve tried other brands of frozen mixed berries that have not been so good – they almost had a face-twisting bitterness / tartness to them.
This is possibly my favourite breakfast. This might seem weird to those of you who crave pancakes drizzled in maple syrup or a luxurious cooked breakfast that includes things like crispy bacon, scrambled eggs and warm toast lathered in melted better. I’d much rather have a simple bowl of muesli with skim milk and frozen berries. However, I never order this out of the home because there is no point paying upwards of $10 for something that tastes very similar, if not worse than, what I make at home (which explains the multiple pictures of breakfast eggs on this blog).
Pictured above is my favourite snack to make at home. The frozen berries are delicious beads of concentrated sweetness, the pepitas add a bit of crunch and the thick, filling greek yoghurt binds it all together. Sometimes I play with my food, swirling trails of red through the pristine white yoghurt as the berries melt and shed their juices.
Anyway, that’s what I like to eat. I’ll find any excuse to take photos, even if I’m not eating out much!
Have been dying to photograph something so I decided to snap this study snack.
By the way, nuts are pretty good for you!
I’m just procratinating really.
