Arkania Posted September 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2018 W00000psie, it's missing the photos of the whole week So, here they are: Tuesday morning, some Knäckebrot with chocolate spread (oh man, I love Côte d'Or) and italian salami, a cup of coffe. For lunch some vegeterian sausage on top of some fried mushrooms, green salad and tea. For dinner fried rice with peppers, onions and oven baked chickenbreast. Wednesday Lunch (I had to throw the hot smoked salmon away, because it wasn't good anymore ) with scrambled veggie eggs and Knäckebrot with chocolate spread and banana. As an afternoon snacks I had some cereals (like Kellog's Smacks but not with that much sugar and organic etc) with cashew milk For dinner we had some Pizza. Thursday Lunch was a salad. Afternoon snack porridge with applesauce and Cini Mini crunchy muesli Dinner was some flatbread with dips (no photo) and as a snack a "milk"shake (Cashew milk) with banana, cherries, mango and vanilla whey. Friday Today I had a great breakfast with chia bread, salami and cheese, harzer cheese, an apple and tea. I have to defrost the freezer so I decided to make some soup with stuff out of it. Chicken Veggie soup with marrow dumplings.

Is that something you can buy in stores, or something you've made yourself? What is it, more exactly? Bone marrow I guess is the main ingredient But what else is in it? I bought it at my butcher's. Wikipedia says: Marrow dumplings are small dumplings made of white bread and bone marrow from beef or veal, which are served as a soup insert. For preparation, the marrow is soaked in water if necessary and then finely chopped. This mixture is mixed with eggs and flour, breadcrumbs or white bread. Typical spices are salt, pepper, pimento and nutmeg as well as chopped parsley. For the preparation you form small dumplings or prick dumplings out of the dough. The marrow dumplings are then cooked in salted water or meat stock.

Arkania Posted September 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 Yesterday evening we cooked some Stifado. It's like a greek goulash and since we got some meat for that at the farm, we could finally do it again. Also some roasted potatoes. (Looks not that good but mmmmhhh!!!) Today morning I went with some bread and 3 *cough* cinnamon buns. Lunch was at 4pm, some leftover soup and another cinnamon bun. And regarding the healthy stuff I eat, after that I eat a whole bag (125g) Tortilla Chips, a bag Haribo sweets (220g), a bag of french mini salamis (110g) and during this week this chocolate bar and this package of shortbread. But it's enough again so I think I will go with much less the next week.

Arkania Posted September 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 They taste really really "fatty", like butter. I loved them xears ago but now they are just...hm... fatty sugary carbs I will try to bake them some time. I finally tried as I call it "Zorridge" Couldn't remeber the exact recipe when I was in the kitchen but put together yellow zucchini, protein oats (30g/100g protein!), vanilla ice cream whey and cashew milk. Wo, it tastes amazing! Made 80g oats, 300ml Cashew drink, 30g Whey and 200g Zucchini so it was about 600g food, 550kcal and 60g Protein. Before: After: Will eat it tomorrow and tuesday morning with some frozen fruits (one time cherries, one time mango). BUT I can already give myself -10 EP for tomorrow and tuesday in my challenge , because I will eat "junk" food. I had some vegeterian schnitzel still in the fridge and will eat them with veggies at work. Rest of the food (no photos): Another 2 cinnamon buns and two slices of bread with salami, the rest of the stifado, the rest of the soup (finally done!) and a small piece of chocolate. Oh and I did some more days of the ML challenge. One is supposed to start on a monday but I started on a wednesday (or thursday?), so there are workouts at the weekends. And I figured out that I don't like that So I already read 2 days of knowledge and will do the 2 other days (workout) in the next week as a plus. So tomorrow I will be at day 22.

Don't be so hard on yourself. Sure. A few ingredients I have no idea what they are, but most don't sound that bad. Sounds like a good amount of different protein sources. A few things to make it all stick together. And some ingredients for the flavor. If you eat that with some veggies it's not so bad. A burger and fries from McD would be much worse!

Arkania Posted September 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Haven't heard of the El Maco ever. Is it something like the Big Tasty Bacon? At the moment we have the Big Chili Cheese Bacon as a special. But I never liked McD Before I found the "real" burger manufactories here in town, I like BK (Chili Cheese Nuggets ) better.

Meat: Most because of ethical reasons. We are already buying meat just from our local farm. And that's ok to eat it some days a week (max), but I would like to cut the meat when eating out (except burgers!) and the salami etc. Milk: I don't like the taste. For that (besides baking) I always use Cashew drink. And yeah, the cheese is the biggest problem I looove cheese. Bacon is also good Also Soy yoghurt and Coconut yoghurt taste ok/great but the little protein (also Harzer Cheese....). Won't go vegan but more vegetarian than meat-eating during the week And just "good" meat, organic etc. Quote Battle Log | Epic Quest | Instagram Actual Challenge: Work hard play hard Old Challenges: Lvl 1 Challenge - Arkania chases herself - Arkania's life will be cleared to the base with downshifting - Arkania transforms to Ronja Rövardotter - Arkania is back in black - Arkania goes far and beyond the Ninja Warrior Casting Link to comment

Tobbe Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 El Maco "El Maco is served with cheddar cheese, crispy batavia lettuce, tomato, sour cream & chive sauce and a refreshingly hot salsa. Nostalgia at its best!" That's the rough translation from McDonald's Swedish web page. But as I said, the star of the show for me is/was the fries. Or, "Shaker fries" as they're also called. Together with your meal you get an empty paper bag and a small seasoning package with some hot chili mix of dry spices. You open the empty paper bag, put your fries in it, top it with the seasoning, close the bag and shake it really well to cover all the fries with the chili spices. Yummy!

I'm not super updated on the details, but I think we need to keep eating meat, in order for farmers to keep raising cattle, in order to keep the fields etc open in the countryside. With no animals there would just be trees/bushes everywhere, and we don't want that! Why not? Forests >> fields. 5 hours ago, Tobbe said: People complain about not being able to eat bacon when going vegan, but I feel the cheese is where the real battle is! I would miss cheese so much more than bacon! THIS! I don't understand how people can live without cheese. Though I'd also miss bacon. A lot. Aaaaand now I want fries. (Though definitely not McDs!)

And grazing animals helps with the fields. A lot of plants, insects, butterflies, bees and birds need the open fields and live in a symbiosis with each other. The biological diversity is needed for production of food, clean air, carbon dioxide absorption, soil used for growing food and pollination.

(interpreted/translated from https://www.naturskyddsforeningen.se/vad-vi-gor/klimat/faqvego) Fair enough, though spontaneously my thoughts are that if we kept the environment wild the ecosystem would self regulate to a state which is appropriate for the given climate/soil etc. If fields are part of that climate then of course fields should be there, but most of Sweden for example would be naturally forested and that would probably be the best for the ecosystem. The article (and the link in it) is talking about preserving the biodiversity of a landscape that's already massively altered from it's natural state. Which is fair enough as that's what we're dealing with right now, but it's still worth keeping in mind. Also I find forests more interesting. Quote Link to comment
