Yesterday was the first day of our third week of the 2-5 Diet with the day falling as usual: morning yogurt, a wrap for lunch and Diane’s wonderfully filling and delicious low-cal dinner. As a change she made a very quick, dry, Mexican salsa and wrapped it in a corn tortilla. The package said that there were few calories in the wrap but the taste was sure there.
She made as a first course a stock broth (we use a Croatian powdered stock called Vegeta–great stuff!) with sliced vegetables.
As a second course Diane sauteed (no oil though) some prawns, after they had marinaded in lime, with smoked paprika and garlic; it was very tasty as well as being filling and low-cal.
Diane, who is the keeper of most such things (draw whatever conclusion you may from that statement), assured me yesterday that I was actually under the 6oo cal limit.
