Hello! Hope you’ve all had a great weekend! ![]()
Yesterday updates: I baked some more Apple and Cinnamon bread! I love this stuff!![]()
Seriously, after having home-made bread, shop bought never tastes half as good!![]()
I ended up having a lot of this! I guess something can be said for shop bought, in that portion control is much easier when it’s pre-sliced!
One of the other snacks I had in the day was this:
Upping the fat and protein intake! This was leftover from my last Graze box, and I’d actually never tried a brazil nut before…hmmm…![]()
….I have to say, I think this is possibly my favourite nut! Yummy! I could eat a thousand of these!
Last night’s dinner was whole-wheat spaghetti, and I used the spinach trick I mentioned a few posts ago:![]()
Then added chopped tomatoes and kidney beans (random, but they’re my favourite bean, so I have them with everything
)![]()
In other news, I am trying not to consume much soya milk now. Recently I have been having a really dodgy tummy after breakfast, and I think that may be because of the soya milk I have. And that also explains my tummy troubles during my run on Thursday, as I had soya milk about an hour before I ran! So, I am now trying out different types of milk. This week, it is the turn of:![]()
Oat milk! It’s no secret that I love oats, so we’ll see if I love oat milk just as much! Lets hope my stomach does anyway!
I’m also planning on trying coconut, almond and rice milk, to see which I like the best!
I can’t wait to try this when it arrives! I’ve wanted to try a vegan protein powder for ages, and this was recommended by a friend, so I thought I’d give it a go! But am annoyed, because I literally just saw that they sell it on Amazon for the same price, but with free delivery! I had to pay over £3 for mine, which is quite a lot seeing as it’s only one small item! ![]()
Tomorrow, I am planning on doing some baking! I’m thinking of breaking open one of the precious remaining stock of:![]()
Can’t wait to get my bake on!
What’s your favourite type of nut? Mine, as I said, is currently brazil I think, but almonds and pecans are pretty darned good too… And do you use protein powder? If so, what kind?

I’ve tried just about every non dairy milk but I never got around to oat milk! I can’t wait to see what you think of it. By the way, vegan protein powders are awesome
Yay for smoothies!
Oat milk is DELICIOUS! I can’t compare it to most others, but I love it, and really recommend you try it!
ahh where do you order your groceries from??
I ordered this protein powder from Goodnessdirect.co.uk, if that’s what you’re wondering. But generally Sainsbury’s, Tesco’s or Waitrose
Brazil nuts are my favourite by far, I have some every day! As for protein, my favourite is the Holland and Barrett own brand stuff, but i also love the delish flavours from Boditronics.
Me too now
Really? I’ve heard the own brand H+B stuff isn’t very good at mixing in…? Which in particular, out of interest?
I think my fav are almonds at the moment
Almonds are yummy! I think they’re the best nut for baking
I love Brazil nuts too – macadamias as well, and oh, of course walnuts!!!
Actually never tried macadamias or walnuts…but I will soon!
I love roasted and salted cashews, I love pistachios too, and macadamias, and brazils… errrm I like nuts haha
Never tried cashews, pistachios or macadamias either…so many nuts yet to try!
Yum I love brazil nuts! Never used to (I only liked peanuts when I was little)- now I love pecans, hazelnuts, pistachios, brazils…. I am not a fan of walnuts though- but if they are chopped up in something I will eat them. Yay pumpkin baking is so fun
Pumpkin baking is fun! And I’ve only actually tried brazils, peanuts and a few others, but never fear, I will have conquered them all someday!
[...] knew it would be my protein powder that I ordered a few days ago before I opened it, but I was in for a bit of a [...]
