[myturn]

Thanks ladies... I'm going for a zucchini and carrot muffin hopefully... Yes.... with cheese...! And maybe raspberry ones for a treat if I can be motivated to cook a second batch

will definitely cook that slice meow... Not sure ill get time today though

will keep the soup option for when out if there's nothing else I could go for soup

Here's one of the recipies I cooked....

Sorry I will have to make a second post to show the pic

Here's the end product....

I actually used semolina instead of polenta.... (Thought I had polenta.... But I was wrong...)

also I added a few raspberries and didn't put the walnuts in.... Will let you know how its tastes later

Looks good!

the recipe as follows....

Its from a yoga retreat website - I don't think I can post the link, but here's the recipe.... I just added chives and tasty cheese

thanks for the inspiration ladies.... I didn't even know where to start and I really appreciate the suggestions... I've also bought dried fruit and nuts, and some apples and bananas...a few naughty snacks too... But I've tried..... Not really dinner... And I suspect DH will want us to stop somewhere anyway.... But it's a start.... My new life of making healthy choices.... Not for me, but for the little blob inside... And whether or not he/she sticks around, I am changing things right now...

Pumpkin, parmesan and zucchini muffins




Makes 10 regular muffins


200g pumpkin – cook, drain and mash (could be baked and mashed for a richer taste)


Combine in a large bowl
- 2 cups SR flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 75 g grated parmesan


Combine in a small bowl
- Mashed pumpkin
- 1 zucchini grated
- 125g melted butter (or 100ml oil)


Beat together
- 1 egg

Fold all the wet ingredients into the flour mix until just combined. Spoon into muffin trays. Top with extra parmesan and sesame seeds. Bake at 190c for 35 minutes until a skewer comes out clean.

Woo hoo congrats

when travelling we tend to stick to subway and other places where they make it on the spot. As for healthy treats, well rice snacks those type things,

I worry about subway cause you don't know how king the salad has sat there for?? I though you were supposed to avoid salad bars due to listeria?
