This week was a week filled with attempts at healthy eating. Which to me, means filling the plate with vegetables and boxes of salad are particularly cheap.
So general theme of week was FILL THE PLATE WITH ALL THE SALAD.
 |
| Veggie Burgers, salad with carrots and hummus |
These are from Holland and Barrett, they are made from soy protein and look somewhat disgusting dehydrated straight from the packet. But once you add water, leave them soak it up and gently grill them, they turn into perfectly delicious veggie burgers.

| Spaghetti Bolognese |
Bolognese with chunky veg looks slightly ridiculous covered in salad. I probably should start using side plates... Garlic bread with salad, topped with bolognese and covered with cheese is just too good to pass up for pretty pictures.
 |
| Parmesan Chicken Salad |
Baked Parmesan chicken is so easy to do. Dip chicken in melted butter, roll in Parmesan cheese, season and bake for 25 minutes. Add to salad, smother in your favourite dressing and you've got yourself a low carb dinner.

| Cheese stuffed chicken with more cheese |
Favourite dish of the week! It's a fillet of chicken, stuffed with Philadelphia and wrapped in parma ham, served with a baked camembert, salad and greens. The baked camembert you can buy in Aldi, and you should go buy it because it is awesome. I do love all the gooey cheese.
Next week I'm looking for more interesting vegetable sides than salad, and more low carb ideas. Suggestions?
