  • Tin of tomato soup & tin of pears for me today! I'm making a big pot of leek and potato soup later tonight though, to put into freezable tubs for future lunches :)

  • OK feeling much worse today than I did yesterday - so an extra day at home then! Blurgh. Having leftover soup anyway to be kind to my sore gums!

    I've been good this month, but I forgot to bring my lunch with me today, so I made a visit to the falafel shop to get my lunch and very good it was too, so one of my two lunches used up this month.

    Today I've got leftover roasted veg lasagne and salad. Had it last night and really looking forward to it again. It's my 30th Birthday night out on Sat so need to stock up on the vitamins to make sure I don't come down with something before!!!

  • Sounds lovely Eleanor, I was meant to be having left over chicken and mushroom pasta bake from last night but my boyfriend scoffed the lot! :angry: So it's a chicken, potato and mushroom soup brought from the cupboard. And a Wispa! Hope you're feeling better today NTBY!

  • Made my pot of leek and potato soup last night; just had some for lunch there! Got the leeks from Aldi for 69p for 3 (super savers special thingy this week) and big bag of potatoes for 59p! Easily get 8 portions out of the pot aswell. :o

    The only reason I have leftovers is because he was out!!!!!

  • Thank you, Tete en l'Air! I actually went to work yesterday (had leftover butter nut squash soup), got violently ill in the morning after feeling awful, then felt better for the rest of the day. I came home and crashed (slept for about 12 hrs) so now feeling ok and hopefully I'll make it through today.

    Going to finish yesterday's soup, methinks. Om nom,

  • Hi guys, glad to see you're all going strong - me too!
    The cold has finally gone - good thing too as I was just about out of cuppa soup. I've brought cold pizza into work today (leftovers) with some salad to bulk it up a bit. I did the great north run on the weekend and got a goodie bag full of cereal & snack bars, some fajita seasoning and some vile powerade which is all going into my little work food stash - except the powerade - its too disgusting to drink, even though its free.
