Woah! It’s Wednesday already? It’s always nice when the week goes quickly, and today I’m super excited because I should be picking up my sexy bike for the London Duathlon this evening! Yay!
As always, head over to Peas and Crayons to check out some of the tasty things the blogosphere has been munching on this week 🙂
This is what I ate on Monday…
Breakfast
Egg frittata muffin with raspberries.
Mid-morning snack
Green tea and a banana
Lunch
Tuna and carrot salad with lettuce, cucumber, cherry tomatoes and cashew nuts
Afternoon snack
Cup of tea and 2 white chocolate and cranberry cookies from my Foodie Penpal parcel!
Dinner
I went to Crossfit after work, and ate an apple on the train home, followed by these leftovers from Sunday night- stir fry beef with chilli and lime, cooked with red pepper, onions, mushrooms and grated carrot
I have a couple of recipes I want to share with you this week!
Egg Frittata Muffins
The muffins were based on this recipe, although mine don’t look as pretty! Haha. I also used bacon instead of sausage, and mushrooms instead of red pepper. But I reckon you could put in pretty much any veg/meat combo and they’d still taste good!
Just mix everything in with your eggs (I used 7 to make 6 muffins purely because I didn’t want to leave an odd egg!), spoon into a muffin tin and cook for 20-25mins until the egg is set.
Then you can store them in the fridge and grab and go!
The second creation for today is my Easy Vegetable Beef Stir Fry.
I used a packet of precut beef, marinated in chilli and lime from Waitrose to save time. I cooked onions and garlic first, before adding the beef.
Once the meat was browned, I tossed in some chopped pepper, mushrooms and grated carrot. Grating the carrot meant it cooked much quicker!
Finally I added 2 generous handfuls of spinach, which then mostly disappeared as it wilted!
And serve! This made 2 portions, and you could always add noodles or rice to bulk it out more.
Any quick and speedy dinner recipes that you fall back on?
