Happy Easter!

Dinner tonight was a salmon red Thai infused fillet of salmon (Aldi) - really easy to cook as it steams in the packaging, so not even any washing up! 176 calories.

Spring greens picked out of the garden, steamed with a generous knob of butter (22 cals for the greens, 37 for the butter!)

Cauliflower cheese made "my own way) - steamed the cauliflower in the microwave, added full fat soft cheese (Tesco's equivalent of Philadelphia cheese) and creme fraiche, topped with cheddar cheese, parmesan cheese and mozzarella... and finally some breadcrumbs. As it was an accompaniment I had just quarter of the recipe which worked out at 195 calories.

Finally some roasted butternut squash - I used spray olive oil and roasted it in the oven for about 35 minutes.

Whole meal was 475, but was very decadent and tasted as if it should have been many more!

No Easter eggs here :-( but hubbie and I decided that we didn't need them.....

Off for a three hour spa visit this evening - my daughter's Mothering Sunday gift to me. She's coming too!

What a lovely meal Pineapple27 😊 I like the sound of that cauliflower cheese too . . . Never thought of using LF cream cheese . . . I like it with mushrooms though so I'd probably like it with cauliflower 😊

Enjoy your evening, what a lovely gift . . . I got thorntons and theyre not opened yet . . . Not that virtuous as I only got them today!! Lol (my son has had other things on his mind!!)
