This will be a one off post as I realise this is the C25k forum and not the healthy eating forum !
I made my first dinner recipe from the book tonight , absolutely delish 😬😋
It was Roasted butternut squash stuffed with puy lentils , red and green peppers, onion , garlic, mushrooms, feta and pine nuts, and smoked paprika.
With roasted tender stem broccoli
Really really nice 😬
As a veggie...that looks amazing
That does look delicious 😋
Methinks you are a pretty good cook
Thank you ! 👍 I like to cook 😬
Me too. I find it really relaxing and a great way to de-stress.
Nearly as good as running😁
Yes it is , if I have a day off I will sometimes spend all day in the kitchen and batch cook , portion it and freeze for when I'm working late
Great minds. Whatever I cook at weekends I make double, triple quadruple amounts and freeze for midweek use
Yes, I never cut recipies down if it's something i can freeze 😁
That looks absolutely wonderful! My book came today and I’ll be studying it this evening. I feel a food shopping trip coming on and it doesn’t look like it’s going to be cheap! 🙄
It was good ,
I won't be cooking from it every day as you say , not always cheap ! Also most of the recipes are for 4 but at least you can scale it down
Maybe it isn’t that cheap, but your health is well worth spending the money on! Looks a great book. Thanks for the post. Feel like that wouldn’t fill me up though. 🤣Might need some extra feta!
Yes, could end up a bit expensive, but , as you say , it's your health and I'm only feeding one !
Ian, do you want to come round mine and cook me a meal?
Haha 😁👍
As I say , I actually do like cooking !
Trouble is, I like baking as well but that's bad news when you live alone 😂
Lol! 🤣
You should read “Why We Eat (Too Much)” by Dr Andrew Jenkinson. It will soon put you off eating cakes!
It’s the most interesting book I’ve read in a long while and I learnt so much I didn’t know (and I thought I knew a lot about nutrition! 😅) It will put you off sugar, processed food, vegetable oils and calorie-restricted diets that’s for sure.
Sounds like a book I should read !
Although I only really bake bread these days , and even then not often
😂
Yay, you posted one! 😃👍🏼
Oh my days, that looks right up my street 😋😋😋
Haha, I loved it 💕😋
It’s lacking something. But I can figure out what 🤔 💪
Haha Popeye's magic ingredients 😁
That looks really good.
What’s this book?
It's called the runners cookbook , got from Amazon , there is a picture of it in a previous post 🙂
Alright...Chef57! 👌🏽....And the description...👌🏽...Show off!! 😂
Very nice !! 🤩❤️
Haha 😁😋
It may not be the healthy eating forum but keep these coming. May inspire me to cook. Looks delicious and glad it tasted good.
Haha thanks 😁👍
I’m not a lover of peppers but that looks lush 👌 😋😍
There's only a small amount of diced pepper 😋
Yes and could substitute with something I’m sure - maybe sweet corn 🌽
Looks great Ian...Is the cookbook mainly veggie ? I’d be very interested if it is. Thanks for sharing 😊
That is making me hungry just looking at the photo (and I have just eaten breakfast!!).
I hope it tasted as nice as it looked.
I saw your post yesterday and have ordered the cookbook. I have been inspired. I enjoy cooking but don't seem to find the time some days. I find it difficult to cook for one. I do usually batch cook when I have the time. How can I create more hours in the day?
I am actively trying to put on weight. I lost a stone through the stress of my husband leaving and still weigh less now than I did at college 20+ years ago. Well a new decade starts in 2 weeks. They say life begins at 40, so lets see if it does.
Haha, sorry to make you hungry just after breakfast 😂
And yes, it tasted so good !
I hope you like the book !
I sometimes struggle to find the time some days , but I'm self employed and can usually finish early 😁
Your right though , it's difficult sometimes to cook for one (I had similar issue when my wife left 😐)
I also batch cook when I can .
Hope you enjoy the book and fingers crossed for you new decade 🤞😬
Thank you
Very nice, healthy too 👍😋
Yes, I'm trying to get back into health eating !
I did it once about 2 and a half years ago and lost 2.5 stone ! But then slowly 1 stone came back before I started running , I have now managed to loose half of that
Nice one, we’ve been having those Hello Fresh meals, they’re nice, so much tastier being freshly cooked too.
That looks delicious Instructor57 ! I have this book too - and haven't used it enough.Thanks for the reminder! 😀
Haha your welcome, I have loads of cookbooks that i have only used maybe 1 recipe or so 😂
Me too! 😳😂
Haha 😂
Looks delicious! Which cookbook is it?
Wow Instructor57
Your meal looks amazing. Yum!
Zest 
Thank you ! It was sooo good 😁
