What are you munching on? v. gimmie toblerone n' beetroot

Eating halva. It's fucking amazing, dunno quite what it's made of but it's Greek and a kinda bitter chocolate taste with a weird texture to it. Had it like twenty years ago when we did some 'world foods' thing in school and loved it but could never remember what the hell it was til I saw it in Lidl the other day and clicked.

God I love Lidl.
 
Half 4 in the afternoon and I've not eaten yet, just made 2 different types of soup. Carrot, tomato & red pepper and sweetcorn & chilli. Just waiting for them to cool down so I can blend them then will eat. Had a disaster the other day, made soup and it needed blended but I was hungry and didn't want to wait for it to cool so got the hand blender out and tried to blend it that way, it went everywhere. Cleaned it up and got out the big blender with the lid and shit, put it in, lid on, pressed the button and the pressure from the soup pushed the lid off and it went fucking everywhere, all over the kitchen. Lucky it never landed on me as I might be seriously scalded right now.
 
I'd take your recipe for sweetcorn and chilli soup? Please.

Man is doing a man pizza with man toppings to be served alfresco - midge coils and candles have been lit, maybe this is taking Scotland too far of a late summer eve, maybe...
 
Celery is misunderstood but is very important as a "base" aka - onion, carrot & celery (the holy trinity of savouriness) as the key base-flavour for many dishes. You need to review your attitude towards celery Spade.

Thank you for the recipe link, I'll give that a go, though won't use the cream either, far too fatty and calorific.

How's the healthy diet going?
 
Not bad Kate, my vitamin intake will be through the roof this week. Fruit for breakfast, multiple bowls of soup per day, fruit juce, lots of veg with dinner.

Celery can overpower and ruin a lot of dishes, put a little bit in and sometimes it's all you can taste. It taints a lot of food IMO. I think that soup recipe tell you to strain the soup after blending to get rid of the sweetcorn skin and make it smooth but I don't do that, I like the taste the skin gives.
 
How could I forget to mention I had a slice of haggis pizza earlier today. Best thing ever. Combining something as good as pizza with something as incredible as haggis is genius. If you have not tried it do so ASAP.
 
It reads like you're still hungry Spade? Do you think you are getting enough protein? Though you are to be applauded for the fresh fruit and veg nutrients in your diet. How are you finding your energy levels.

The quantity of celery matters, yep, but it does help lift base flavours.

Life is too short to sieve sweetcorn, some texture is good!


EDIT: Haggis pizza is an abortion, all wrong as is haggis pakora :|
 
Not hungry at all Kate, I had a massive plate of chips and cheese earlier, I'm not just eating fruit and veg. :D

Does anyone else find that unless you REALLY try 5 fruit and veg a day just isn't going to happen. I love both but you need to go out your way to get that many.

Do not diss the haggis pizza Kate. I've never ate a haggis pakora but I bet it's amazing. Like battered haggis from the chippy but spicier. Haggis sauce roles are fucking amazing. Haggis ice cream though....you just made that up. :p

No not really. Maybe if you had a structured lifestyle it would be easier Spade - but you know what you types are like?...all floatin' the boat n all that kinda stuff ;)

I forgot haggis crisps - don't like em' either :\

I've not made the ice-cream up - don't you know they've (as in not corporate giant manufacturers but the local micro business consumerism for the quaint, locally produced produce movement) made Arbroath smokie, haggis and shortbread ice cream flavours?

See?

Disgusting and an affront to the Haggis :|

Have you nae national pride man - ok me neither lol =D
 
So you get your 5 a day most days without any effort Kate? Break it down....

I've never seen those ice cream flavours and they sound minging but they aren't the same as haggis pizza, pakoras and crisps which all work fine. Why are you so against eating haggis in anything but the traditional way?

I really like haggis, but am fussy about how and where its made. It's flavoursome and a complex food stuff in itself - that makes it enough for me. Call me a purist lol ;)

5 a day +

Glass of fruit juice at breakfast time
Mid-morning piece of fruit
Salad / veggie soup for lunch - sometimes followed by more fruit!
Vegetables, 2, 3, 4 types for dinner or big mixed salad (makes up half of meal with protein / carb)
Snacks of crudities, berries, banana etc

Like I say, I have a structured day and get up early...which now means its bedtime. Good thing about getting old is you need less sleep. Nighty night.

Keep up the good work Spade <3
 
Who cares where and how the haggis is made, it's a load of minging shit shoved into a sheep stomach. Just happens to taste great.

I have a structured day too Kate, I just get up later than you and go to bed when you're getting up. I struggle to eat breakfast but have had fruit and fruit juice all this week in an effort to eat get the 5 a day and the vitamins.
 
I've had a bit of memory loss the last day or so, but I believe I put the pizza that was in my wardrobe in the fridge which I am now munching on cold.

I hope my memory loss hasn't gone too far and it is someone else pizza.8o I'll reimburse any complaint if it is. I'm 70% sure it is my pizza, I did a lot of MXE last night and I am not quite sure what happenened, lol. 8)

You have the worst diet of anyone that comes on this thread.

I'm not saying the worst diet on EADD, but out of the people who admit to what they eat, you eat the shittest stuff.
