Tick of Yum

And last but not least for today - is the conversion of a Fasting Day / Low Calorie meal from the UK 5:2 website for use by a Thermomix -

Fragrant Chicken Broth, Thermomix version - as requested.

I've had a little twiddle with the ingredints (that sounds weird... but you know what I mean right?) and I have to say that it is VERY VERY delicious!!!! &...

Well... the journey John and i are on (the 5/2 diet) seems to be working well (3 kilos off for me in 3 kilos - john "isn't counting" but things are looser)... and what's more John is even more into it than me which is great for my morale!

John is home this week after hernia surgery and he is disgustingly healthy... although moving slower than normal (not mentally you understand!!).  But... the good thing is, that he has had plenty of time for cooking and recipe hunting ...

Ever heard of the 5:2 diet?  I had.... the thing is... I'm old enough to have heard of MANY diets and have also seen them fall out of favour.  Carbs are bad for you.... oh, actually they aren't.  Fat is bad for you... oh, actually it isn't - and so on.

When an absolutely LOVELY lady, a friend and a client, gave me this recipe from her 5:2 regimine, it sounded lovely and I had made it - REALLY enjoying it for the recipe itself, I must admit I didn't think much ...
