Lite n' Easy Day 5 - Morning to Afternoon |
Breakfast: Bacon, Free Range Egg and Roasted Tomato with Multigrain Toast
I was so looking forward to this breakfast, bacon and eggs on a Sunday. I opened the bag and the egg had cracked and the yolk had spilled out in the container. They do put the eggs in a plastic container but obviously it can still get damaged. So no egg for me today as I didn't have any spare in the fridge :(
Morning Snack: Red Apple
Lunch: Chicken & Pasta Bake
Seasonal Fruit
This one is quite nice, just a white creamy sauce with pasta, chicken and frozen veggies. The chicken is quite nice in this one. Another red apple though? My morning snack was a red apple and now with lunch. I would prefer a little more variety with the fruit but I'm happy it wasn't a peach fruit cup!!!
Afternoon Snack: Ricotta Spinach Cake
It sounds better than it looks and it doesn't sound that great does it? This is one of my least favourite snacks. This time I heated it in the microwave and toasted it a little and it was more bearable than just heating it in the microwave.
Lite n' Easy Dinner - Chicken Dijon |
Dinner: Chicken Dijon (#49)
I had this the first week because I have had some not great dinners. The crumbed fish was disgusting the last few times I ordered it, the fish was not fresh. So I guess I was scared to try any new dinners but I'm going to try all new ones next week.

Lite n' Easy Breakfast |
Breakfast: Fruit & Bran Cereal with low fat milk. Wholegrain & Oat Toast
with Strawberry Jam
Morning Snack: Kiwi Fruit
It was the Australia Day public holiday and I was out most of the day so I didn't have my morning snack. I should have taken it with me.
Subway Low Fat Sub |
Lunch: Napoli Meatballs on a
As previously mentioned, because I was out I ended up having Subway for lunch. I had a six inch wheat with ham, all salads except jalapenos and honey mustard sauce. It's one of the six grams of fat or less. I used to order the footlong Chicken Classic (previously called Chicken Fillet) on Italian herbs and cheese bread, cheddar cheese, all salads except jalapenos and honey mustard sauce.
I did some research on the nutritional information on what I used to have at Subway, compared to what I have now.... Holy Footlong Batman!

*Nutritional information from Subway website here
Figures on the left were doubled as it's a footlong and the Subway website only states the nutritional information for a six inch.
So don't always think that Subway is healthy or low fat. Isn't it amazing how much difference there is by making a few changes! I could have reduced my sodium if I didn't have olives and pickles (I forgot about them) and sugars by choosing hot chilli sauce or no sauce.
Lite n' Easy Snack |
Afternoon Snack: Dried Apricots
Lite n' Easy Dinner - Braised Lamb Shanks |
Dinner: Braised Lamb
Shanks (#128)
This is pretty nice, it's more like a lamb stew. I think it's more fitted to the cooler months, it reminds me of a slow cooker meal. Did there use to be more meat or am I just imagining that? There is that sad mushy, tasteless pumpkin again :(

Lite n' Easy Day 7 - Morning to Afternoon |
Breakfast: Free Range Egg and Smokehouse Ham on a toasted Multigrain Muffin
Morning Snack: Orange
Lunch: Aromatic Chicken Curry and a Red Apple
I do like this lunch, it's like an Indian curry. I would heat this one for longer next time as some of the middle was frozen :S
Afternoon Snack: Choc Hazelnut Fruit Mix
Yum! Chocolate hello! My favourite of the fruit mixes, this one has Hazelnuts, sultanas and choc drops.
Lite n' Easy Dinner - Rigatoni |
Dinner: Rigatoni (#86)
This one some how slipped passed me and I never tried it. OMG it's so yummy! It's a basic tomato sauce, with pasta and the meatballs taste similar to sausage meat. Definitely putting this in my dinner rotation.

Glass low fat milk
