Saturday menu

We have been for a refreshing walk and are now preparing the dinner for this evening.  We've decided to have beef done two ways.  A couple of weeks ago, we made a slow cooked beef shin dish, with celeriac puree and spinach/cheese ravioli.  There was a couple of small portions left over, which we froze - along with the delicious gravy/sauce.  So -- they are coming out of the freezer tonight.  Instead of having this with the ravioli, we've decided to go for a meatier dish.  We'll be having a small piece of fillet steak and serving this with celeriac puree, shallots and crisp roasted potatoes.  I'll take a picture and post it later.

Today we get to eat a normal full calorie intake.  This meal will cost between 700 and 800 calories and we can easily accommodate it into our day's allowance. We're not afraid of eating food we love, we are just AWARE of how much we can eat.  It's all about making the choice!  Earlier today I fancied some chocolate, but only had a small amount, because I was saving myself for this meal.
