Dinner: Steamed Sweet Potato & Feta Salad Really simple to make, but tasty all the same. I find the bitterness of the feta and rocket balance nicely with the sweetness of the potato. I steamed the sweet potato for around 20 minutes. Drizzle with olive oil, balsamic vinegar and black pepper. :)

Lunch today: Sweet Spanish Omelette

For this Tortilla with a twist, I followed a basic recipe (you can find plenty online) but substituted regular potato for sweet potato.

Strawberry & Lychee Smoothie

6 lychees peeled & stoned

approx 150ml coconut water

6 medium/large strawberries

slice of lime for extra zest/garnish

After not having lychees in years, I had a bit of a craving for them today. This is a sweet, but very refreshing drink! Suitable for vegans

I haven't posted for a good few weeks - been very busy. Here is one of my fave healthy lunches- Fresh mozzarella & tomato on bread thins with a side salad. I've noticed my entries have so far been quite samey, so I plan to do something a little more adventurous for my next few entries!
