I've actually considered that
Mini chicken kebabs with hot nando sauce.
Looks good. Have you thought about making your own peri peri sauce? It's really easy and you end up with something that tastes far less of vinegar
I'm stuffed. Ended up having all 4 skewers with 3 pitta breads 
Nope not even crossed my mind before to be honest! I like the taste of nando sauce and it's fairly low in calories so not sure why I would want to try making my ownLooks good.

For food geekery, of course
I can understand having no inclination to go through more hassle for peri if you enjoy it as is though - no point fixing something that isn't broken

Veggie dish for dinner again 
Eggplant cheesecake from Ottolenghis Plenty More
Tastes better than it looks The za'atar/olive oil mix brushed on at the end is classic Ottolenghi and a really great touch.

That looks very tasty. How are you doing with your take aways?
I haven't touched one for a month now. Just got to the point where I realised their cost far outweighed how much I actually enjoyed them.

I'm the same get massive craving for takeaway, then when it turns up it's absolutely rubbish. So why do I crave it. Should go to a pub or something at least the foods good.
Cries, I wish I had that allowance.

When I played rugby more regularly and at a more decent level I used easily breach 5k.
My basic calorie intake is only 3k so it's not a huge amount more.
Tina!!! Smooth?!
I did umm and err for a while before deciding to buy smooth It's because I always end up using more on my toast with crunchy peanut butter. I can't spread the crunchy one as well and then it means I need to get more out of the jar to cover all bare patches of the toast meaning more calories...
