Interesting!!!

But wraps are wrapped, right? A tostada looks more like a pizza.

Not in Wales....

Not wrapped, wrap is more like a burrito. Many restaurants here will deep fry the tortilla making it a bowl shape, then fill the bowl with refried beans in the bottom then lettuce, the seasoned meat and top with shredded cheese and guacamole, salsa and sour cream. I tried to google a pic but couldn't find one quickly.

Sunday morning here in OZ and still not hungry ( Thanks to 5.2 now I listen to my body)so will wait till lunch which will be a pasta,vege cheesy chicken bake then tonight BBQ steak and Greek salad with some cheeky pino grigio. Caroline, your dinner of home made hamburger a delicious salad is just up my alley. Could you please tell me which Hairy Dieters cook book you have and does it have chicken marsala in it? I've been thinking of buying the cook book as so many of our friends on the forum mention it but not sure which one to get. Thanks.

Opened the window with omelette 1 egg + extra egg white and on top I piled a combo of green beans, sliced button mushrooms, some goats cheese feta crumbled, chopped parsley and coriander. A grind of sea salt and pepper and folks it didn't even hit the sides so I had 3 pieces of hazelnut chocolate and a mug of tea. Now that's what worked

My excuse is I am way heying too over the weekend. Back to the discipline of 5:2+16:8 tomorrow with next weekend off as well

I've had breakfast: Muesli with greek yoghurt, slice of spelt and sprouted grain toast with butter AND nut butter, cup of tea. Morning tea with a girl friend: Medium size capuccino with a blueberry muffin. It's now past lunchtime and I'm not hungry yet so i don't know how the rest of the day will pan out. Doesn't matter, it's a feast day!

Bugger all ha ha some more lovely veg soup to look forward to
