Not Rocket Science

Today has featured yet another meal disaster, which ended up in me going back to basics and making stuff that isn't exactly rocket science.

First: the disaster

Iwent to make a smoothie out of fresh rockmelon, fresh pineapple, dash of milk, and some muesli. Now, I know how good muesli is for me, but it literally makes me sick when I eat it (my theory is there's too much fibre in one hit for me). So, I thought putting some in a fruit smoothie would be a good way to get it into me. Little did I know, that little combination practically needed a spoon, and the fruit flavours were completely distinguished and gone.

So for breakfast today, I ended up having an iced coffee which isn't nutritious at all, but it filled my tummy.

That left me to come up with a quick and easy idea for lunch that I could make in the office kitchen. So I went back to basics and made something so simple that it sounds boring, but it satisfied me perfectly - a bread roll with hommus, cheese and cucumber. And strangely enough, all I feel like for dinner is a toasted bread roll spread with margarine. These bread rolls were baked today, so they are super fresh and I think that's what making me wanting to keep them simple - the freshness of them is just perfect and doesn't need jazzing up at all.

I'm easy to please, eh?
