You either love this or hate this. There seems to be no in-between. "Pommes Mayo-Curry" (French fries out of the oven with vegan mayo and curry powder):

I love any French fry that doesn’t involve ketchup…. Or ranch. I’m sure I’d love these!

And here it is. I got a little distracted (scrolling the sales 😆) & I cooked the steak more medium than the med rare I prefer. I didn’t eat all of it. May end up with enough for 4 meals. The broccolini heads are separate because they’ve started to cause me a little trouble so I now eat them separately so I can be more careful.

Most people I know hate this. "Pommes Mayo-Curry" was quite popular at a small takeaway I used to go sometimes before moving some years ago.

Also the "Pommesbrötchen" was very popular. A white roll stuffed with french fries, mayo and ketchup. A combination that makes most people running away as I have learned, lol.

I have to make that someday but you need the right rolls for it. Also the "Currywurst spezial" (I posted some pictures of that already) - I sometimes imitate that with a vegan Bratwurst.

starting to go through all the food that didn't get served/eaten over the past several days of holiday parties!
i forgot to defrost this tuna Tataki in time for an NYE party so we are eating it for brunch today. Am actually glad i forgot cuz its delicious! more for us! [emoji23]
270 calories for the plate, ate a little bit more than half (gonna log it at 60%, so like 162 cals for MFP for tracking purposes)

One of favorite go to dishes when I go to a sushi restaurant. So yummy.

I felt like dimsum today. 3 pork siu mai, 1 mini steamed bbq pork bun. I ate 2 of the 3 shumai and half the mini pork bun. I ate 94g (3.3 oz). Calories: 215.

Went to a Mexican restaurant by myself yesterday. It’s weird having actual days off and trying to fully my day with stuff to do.

Anyway, I present to you this monstrosity! 😂 I totally took home leftovers and actually ate some of them for dinner.

my household loves bacon. and chocolate. so...i made candied bacon brownies! baked them in a muffin pan cuz everyone always fights over the outer/corner pieces...this way, every brownie has the crunchy edge.

(we also love cheese, but maybe i'll save that combination for another time lol).

clockwise from top left:

- Crispy bacon stuffed w/ candied bacon topping: 183 cals each

- Chocolate almond stuffed w/ candied bacon topping: 173 cals each

- Plain: 133 cals each

- Chocolate almond stuffed: 153 cals each

Haven't had one yet (i just ate dinner) and its going to be too late to eat one later so i staked my claim on one of the bacon bacon ones and will enjoy it tomorrow...yum, can't wait!

Bananas, Alpro sykr, some quinoa granola and soy flakes:

A vegan burger I got from Penny (Food for Future brand). It's ok but of course no gourmet food. Pimped it with raw red onions and some pickled cucumbers. I didn't have tomatoes or salad, unfortunately.

More food for Future haul from Penny. Mock kebab. Best one I've ever had so far. Put it in the oven together with some zucchini and orange bell pepper that had to go. Put it on a roll with ketchup and curry powder.

Hopefully that mock kebab will be a staple product at Penny. As I said above: best one so far.

445 calories for a (very late) first meal of the day: prosciutto wrapped cantaloupe with some truffle cheddar.

Made more mini pizzas! Switched from full fat cheese to low fat string cheese & it brought each pizza down to 183cals! & 24g of Protein. LOVE these so much

A few days ago, I made some simple Beef Soup with daikon, eggplant, cabbage... Etc. and a mini umeboshii (plum) rice ball. I ate most of it.

[Starwarsandcupcakes 2,053]

Meals prepped yesterday for today- salad (the one without egg is for my oldest) and teriyaki chicken and veggies with rice.

Also, a bonus picture of the Pasta salad with turkey pepperoni the kids had for dinner.

Balsamic marinated lamb back strap. Another one of my who needs to follow the recipe dishes. I’m pretty sure I more than doubled the balsamic vinegar - just kept pouring u til I thought that looks about enough & smells good. It was for lamb chops & also said grill but I baked in the oven. Should get 5 meals from this so a couple will go in the freezer.
