Eating healthy while on holidays
11:29 PM
Before we left for our week away I went for a quick food shop. The more you take with you the less you will eat out. We are staying in this gorgeous little cottage which is very much self sufficient so I plan to cook a lot. I purchased a whole lot of fruit including bananas, strawberries, pears, apples, pineapple and a large bag of oranges. I must admit I did get a little upset that my husband wouldn't let me take our blender on holiday with us (we all know how much I love my smoothies) but I will have to make do with bowls of fruit to snack on and for breakfasts. I made sure I had some bananas in the front seat of the car with me so that I could snack while we were driving. The drive was about 3 hours in total.
I also stocked up on my teas. I couldn't forget them. I bought my ginger tea, chamomile and apple, green tea and peppermint tea.
We didn't want to plan too many meals as we wanted a couple of chances to go out and eat. I also like to 'wing it' when it comes to cooking. I grabbed the essentials form the shop like my almond and soy milks, soy cheese, honey, vegan crackers, lentil chips etc. we knew we wanted to make pizzas because the cottage has its own pizza oven so we grabbed some vegetables for a veggie pizza and some salami, chorizo and shredded chicken for a meat lovers version.
I also made a yummy homemade muesli to take with us for breakfasts. I love my muesli topped with fruits in the morning.
With our basics and fresh fruit and veg we were on our way. I will be stocking up on a few more hits while I'm away but I will share with you a more detailed version of what I'm eating for What I ate Wednesday this week.
Stay Happy and Healthy and I hope you had a Merry Christmas
