Planning

So I'm all set to start photographing from tomorrow and I'm planning leftover homemade pizza for dinner! Not a good start. Although, I did look up recipes for salads using spinach leaves (in the fridge and thought I should have something healthy at least!) and found a great one with avocado and walnuts so we'll see if that eventuates. Watch this space for photographic proof!

Your challenge is...

You've heard of a food diary, right?  Well, this is kind of that but in pictures, like a photo blog. Every night take a picture of your dinner and post it on your blog, facebook, instagram, pinterest or wherever you like. At the end of thirty days, I challenge you to have a look at what you eat for dinner over a month and see if there is anything you can change to make your evening eating habits healthier or more interesting.

I should mention that this is my first time doing this kind of challenge too so I'll be very interested to see what I come up with in the end.  I try to use fresh fruit and vegetables whenever I can and, because I love cooking meals from scratch, I tend to shy away from frozen dinners or takeaway. Of course, I love eating out but with a 3 year old boy running around, my husband and I don't get out as often as we'd like.

I also believe that eating healthy shouldn't have to mean cutting out all the good stuff and eating boring meat and three veg every night, but rather balancing your meals and, because we all know that variety is the spice of life, varying the ingredients we use for our meals through the week.

So, join me in the 30 Dinners challenge and let's see if we can't make a difference to the way we think about eating!
