food

Soon to be reaping rewards for romantic Strava Art (see earlier post) and by end of night will probably gave eaten two lots of camembert, steak etc and some sort of chocolate desert, washed down with two bottles of wine. So in the morning, would you just do the normal thing - porridge rtf and...

.......those falaffle felaffel, faffle chick pea burgers? I had a go last night with some chickpeas I soaked overnight but my mix came out a bit dry and the darn things wouldn't form very easily. Plus the quantities of spices in the recipe didn't seem quite right. This was the one I used...

I like creating food almost as much as eating it. Here are some of my classics. Bagel, egg and pot noodle. Yorkshire and gravy spaghetti. Big mac combined with chicken selects. I called it 'Big mac Selecta' Yorkshires filled with mayonaise and stuffed with egg. A simple hash brown...

The description for this Banana yogurt with milk chocolate and white chocolate coated cereal eggs was good enough reason for me to select it over other yogurts when shopping yesterday. But the disappointment upon trying it was massive. Then we had a discussion about what banana had to do with...

Hello all, I have been cycling (on and off) for about 25 years. Family responsibilities are partly the reason for the on-offness but overall (especially recent years), I have been reasonably good, without too many long gaps. That said, in previous years, I have sometimes stopped for months at a...

Need some inspiration please I`m cycling the miles (150-200 per week) but can`t stop eating crap, and I feel the size of a house.....ok I`m only about a stone heavier than I should be but my head thinks I`ve gained about 5! I`ve got lazy because I never know what to throw together, or take to...

As part of my campaign to control blood glucose and reverse low level T2 diabetes I have adopted a low carb/higher fat and protein diet. The website consensus is that at 80kg weight I should aim for 100g of daily protein intake. My conclusion is the the following intakes would meet the...

Love these and a nana ( not pictured )

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-35981098 Good idea or not? The first lot of comments I read below the article were pretty scathing. For me, it might make me think again before stuffing my face with chocolate, esp on a day when I haven't been for a run or a bike ride. I do realise they are...
