The first week was a success! It went really well and prevented me from constantly trying to decide what we should eat at 6:30pm having no idea what we’d got to choose from!
{I made these vegan muffins and they were a major hit!}
{Had a go at making bircher muesli based loosely on this recipe.
William absolutely loved it and I used an old peanut butter jar
to take a serving into work each morning for my breakfast.}

A few people asked me what Gyros’ are. Stupidly I didn’t photograph them.
Tho mainly because Mark and I were too busy sticking our faces into them.
They were so good!!!
Here is the recipe we used.

Something I didn’t really mention last week is that I am particularly interested in monitoring our food waste. Previously I have felt like we threw away a lot of fresh food that had gone unnoticed and spoiled. This week we have had to throw away some almond milk {trying, and failing, to get used to it in my coffee}, 2 mini pots of hummus {why are there so many ways to spell this simple chickpea delight!?!} and possibly a packet of fresh coriander but I’m hoping it might last until Tuesday to use in the chicken noodle soup.
