I have eaten so many veggies today and I feel really good about that.

Some fruit today too.  Over the course of the day I munched my way through 4 apples and about 8 dates. At lunch time I went back to Food For Thought, hoping to find more of that yummy shepherdess pie I had yesterday. It wasn’t on the menu today so instead I had this ‘Iranian Stew’ which was their hot vegan offering.  It was really good. I had it with 2 salads. It was all excellent. Lots more veggies for dinner.  I str fried an aubergine, leeks, broccoli, cauliflower and mushrooms in coconut oil. Added a can of light coconut milk and a large spoonful of red Thai curry paste. Garnished with mint and coriander it made a quick to cook and satisfying supper.

Thank you to all those of you who have sent me comments about dry skin/eczema/allergic reactions you have had.  It is not unusual it would seem.  I feel encouraged that I need to persevere to isolate what it is that is triggering this reaction and unless it is coconuts, I did well today on an allergy friendly diet as I had no fish, shellfish, gluten, grains, eggs, dairy, citrus, nuts or seeds.  I really enjoyed everything I ate too 🙂
