Hi everyone, welcome to day 5 of my blog challenge!
Today's blog is about my "top 10 favourite foods".
These foods aren't in any order but they are in my top 10, some are meals and some are components.
1. Sweet and sour chicken with rice - home made!
The beauty of home cooking Is that you always know exactly what you're eating. I'm not keen on eating things which have ingredients I don't recognise in, such as tinned or frozen. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a great cook but I'll give anything a try.
2. Lasagne - home made.
Can't beat a good beef lasagne, especially the day before a long run or hard training session. It usually gives me a ton of energy and I have had many a 10 mile run fueled on it!
3. Sausage, bacon, egg and mushrooms in a large bun.
Not a healthy choice here but it is most definitely my guilty pleasure of the food world. I don't eat these very often so I regard them as a lovely treat.
4. Tuna and sweet corn pasta.
I LOVE pasta, I could eat it all day long. Tuna (steak if possible) and fresh corn added for a little nutrition. This is closely followed by pasta with any kind of tomato based sauce.
5. Pulled pork.
On its own, in a sandwich, as a burger, with or without sauce - as long as it is tender it doesn't matter! It is delicious!
6. Roast duck.
Preferably with sweet potato mash and vegetables. Roast duck breast is tender and super tasty, it also smells great whilst it is cooking.
7. Lemon sole.
This fish has a beautiful flavour, it falls apart when steamed or grilled and for me, it is great for a post workout meal.
8. Eggs.
Eggs are packed with protein and can be used in lots of ways for any occasion. I love a good mushroom omelette at any point in the day, especially after a run.
9. Garlic mushrooms.
Another thing I could eat all day. Whether they are in breadcrumbs or not it doesn't matter to me, I will eat them!
10. Banoffee cheesecake
Can't have 10 foods without dessert! Very easy to make but not healthy in the slightest. I prefer fresh because the bananas don't lose their texture of flavour from freezing.
Hope you've enjoyed reading my day 5 blog challenge entry. Come back tomorrow to see what I will be blogging about.
