Saturday Vittles
My daughter and I are trying to eat healthier, so I am sharing some of the dishes that we are eating each week.
Lunch Plates
I'm not really sure what to call these plates that we've been having for lunch. We just put a little of a few different low calorie foods on a small plate for lunch. We've been switching up what foods we eat for lunch so we have a variety of things to eat. You can change it up to suit your taste.
On this plate we had for lunch was, sliced chicken breast, Veggie Straws, raspberries, baby cucumber, radishes, black olives, green olives and blueberries.
Each plate we have been making is about 200 calories and 10 carbs.
Would you eat this?

Looks great and yes, I would eat it.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI would definitely eat that, and do! I call it a selection, bits of this and bits of that, swapping things in and out so it never gets boring.
ReplyDeleteYes, I swap things in and out all the time.
DeleteThat’s fun to have.
ReplyDeleteIt is.
DeleteI'd eat everything but the radishes and olives because I don't like them. You could call this a "mediterranean diet plate."
ReplyDeleteThat's a good name.
DeleteLooks delicious.

Thank you.
DeleteIt is important to eat healthy and to educate the kid to eat healthy too, that way he will develop good eating habits unlike most Americans. Radishes and spring onions are popping up here as well at our green markets as we are approaching March.
ReplyDeleteI agree.
DeleteVery healthy
ReplyDeleteIt is.
DeleteHere's what I'd call it (from Wikipedia): A charcuterie board is a platter typically made of wood or stone that features a variety of cured meats, cheeses, breads, fruits, and other accompaniments, served as an appetizer. It originated in France and has become popular for gatherings and social events.
ReplyDeleteI can see that.
DeleteYes, I would eat that, I like everything on da plate!
ReplyDeleteI like that I change it all the time too.
DeleteYum!
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteOh Mary I love olives :-D Looks so good :-D
ReplyDeleteI do too.
DeleteIt looks delicious and nutritious. Did it fill you up? My problem with cutting back on calories is always the hunger issue.
ReplyDeleteYeah it did. If I get hungry later I just have a piece of fruit.
DeleteAll looks good to me.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI would eat some of it
ReplyDeleteYou could change it up the way you like.
DeleteThat looks like a yummy lunch plate. And it looks healthy too.
ReplyDeleteIt was good.
DeleteA delicious lunch plate . . . Yum!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend wishes.
All the best Jan
Thank you.
DeleteDear Mary, the colours and presentation is beautiful. I am so proud of you for trying to eat healthy 💜 💓
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI'd eat everything on that plate, but would probably want to double it!
ReplyDeleteI can understand that.
DeleteI love a platter where I don't have to cook. I do some almonds, baked tofu (I meal prep on Sundays), an apple, some beans and other veggies. I get lazy and it's great to have the break.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds good.
DeleteYum, we do a similar thing except there is a little cheese and meat (for the dog and the man) on our plate. Probably way more calories too but small plates after a workout are so refreshing.
ReplyDeleteYes, the little plates are good.
Deleteit's great that they're filling up the pool, makes the complex slightly safer, although not much.
ReplyDeleteHopefully they do something with the space.
DeleteI make something similar but like to cut up some broccoli, bell peppers and other vegetables I might have on hand and roast them in the airfryer and then eat them with hummus.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds good.
DeleteThe meal looks delicious! It is good to eat healthy. Take care, enjoy your day and the week ahead.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
