Final countdown to #MEATEASY

There's only a few more hours until I get my final Meateasy and I'm both excited and saddened by the event.  I can't wait to eat it but, as this is the penultimate night in its current location, I'm worried that this will be my last taste of burger heaven.  Fingers crossed it will be reincarnated at another venue nearby.

Since Tuesday morning I have eaten:

Onion Bagel with Parma Ham, Tomato, Mustard and Mayo

Duck Breast, Dauphinoise and Baby Leeks

The price of duck seems to have gone up considerably so this may feature less in my blog in future.  It probably won't though as I love it too much.

2x Milk Chocolate Rich Tea Biscuits

Wednesday:

Special K

Has anyone ever tried the Special K diet?  As far as I can work out it must be a diet of misery.  One bowl of this makes me want to eat my own hand half an hour afterwards.  If I ate the two bowls a day and a 'proper' meal as suggested on the diet I would literally fade away.  Literally.  Who wants to wear red one-piece swimsuits and middle-aged boot cut jeans anyway...

Tomato and Mozzarella Salad

Fiorentina Pizza

Both from Pizza Express on the £10 Favourites Menu.  I love a pizza with a soft yolked egg on top-it's like a self saucing pudding; but a pizza obviously.

My Second Pavlova

I made this to celebrate someone's engagement.  Tricky to take into work as I had to take it all in separately and make it up last minute but it turned out well in the end.  My new signature pud!

Pasturma

We both ate too much in the day and couldn't be bothered to cook in the evening so had this using the 4 yolks left from the pavlova plus 2 extra whole eggs.  Cholesterol central.  It wasn't the right texture without the whites either.  Never again.

Thursday:

Weetabix x 2

I got this from the work canteen.  Why are these packaged individually?  Surely the rule is always two per serving? 

Gregg's Ham Roll (plus packet of French Fries and a Fig Roll)

Did the job but nothing to write home about.

Blacksticks Blue on Ryvita

I think these were both out of date.  Is there a difference between normal blue cheese mould and new 'out-of-date' mould?  I have decided there isn't.

Asparagus Risotto

I'm still teaching myself to like risotto and this may have done it for me!  Got the recipe from Olive Magazine and it was gorgeous and simple to make.  I'll definitely be making this again whilst asparagus season runs.  We didn't even add crispy pancetta on the top to stop it from being vegetarian.

Cadbury's Creme Egg

Today:

Golden Grahams

Tuna and Olive Sandwich with Wotsits

As you can see, I've been pretty good today.  I even did a Davina workout.  This is all in preparation for the burger-fest tonight.  Hopefully it won't be too busy (I should be so lucky).
