Renniemist Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Andy, are you making your own spelt-flour bread or do you buy it? I have a friend who wanted to buy this type of bread for her health but could not find it anywhere. She eventually had to invest in a bread maker and now makes her own. Any information would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted April 25, 2007 Author Share Posted April 25, 2007 Nici, my lunches are normally really boring... plain sandwiches, a banana, etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polka Dot Rock Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Lunch today (as part of my slightly healthier routine of making my own lunch) two small spelt-flour bread sandwiches with black forest ham and hummus, a tomato salad (fresh vine plum tomatoes, basil, black olives, a small amount of olive oil and balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper), two clementines. Lots of fizzy water. Very jealous!! Did you prepare it yourself, or did you buy it all ready-to-eat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freewheeling Andy Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 It's all made by me, apart from the spelt loaf. I have a little street market near me and there's a stall that sells fancy breads from all over London, and amongst the great things they do is a spelt loaf. Recently I've been trying to cut back on the bread stuff, and have been making tabboulleh or a garlicky puy-lentil and bacon salad or things like that.

Freewheeling Andy Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 I fear not, Rennie. If you've got the time to bake your own, it's probably even better. Mine, incidentally, also have a few seeds (pumpkin, sunflower, maybe linseed?) thrown in which improves it even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JudyB Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Forgot to have lunch today as my Wednesday morning lady filled me up with scones (jam and cream included). Am on a library course tomorrow and have just realised that I've not even thought what I'm going to have for lunch - good job it's in the middle of Shrewsbury town centre.

JudyB Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 A lovely buffet provided by the course organisers - went round twice and then walked into town with another library assistant mainly to stop me going round a third time!

Nici Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Anyone any good ideas for pitta breads? Robbie and I always have pitta bread!!! We often have prawns or chicken with salad but you can pretty much put anything in them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icecream Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Lol, Nicky, I know. That's the problem! I'm not finding myself very imaginative at the moment. I'm sure it will come back.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Orchid Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Rigatoni with pork bolognese. And 2 figs for dessert. I am a little oCD when it comes to fruit - figs and satsumas I will only eat in pairs. So don't offer me "a" fig! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echo Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I made 6 pieces of garlic toast and ate them with gorganzola cheese. I also had root beer. Oh yeah, the diet's going great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
