Weekends & Not Being Well

Saturday was my hardest day this weekend, I really wanted to just eat rubbish because I felt rubbish. Even though I knew it wouldnt make me feel better. Instead I managed to throw together some pasta and meatballs and made enough for 3 portions which have already gone! Packed full of speed and thoroughly enjoyed it. Desperately want to be in the next stone range on Thursday! Got a zumba class tonight, first time for everything!

SW coconut macaroons

I know they look more like meringues! But theyre still lovely!

Ingredients:
4 egg whites
198g sugar
71g coconut

Method:
Beat the egg whites until frothy (Make sure no yolk whatsoever has contaminated the egg whites, otherwise you could be whisking for ever!)
Add the sugar and beat until stiff.
Fold in the coconut, put mixture into a piping bag with a star nozzle and pipe 30 macaroons onto a parchment covered baking sheet.
Bake for 30 minutes in a preheated oven (170ºC/150ºC Fan/Gas Mark 3).
Remove from oven, and allow to cool for a few minutes before removing them from the baking sheet.

Herbal Tea

I got the clipper tea in my slimmer of the week box and it's absolutely gorgeous! Would highly recommend. 

The 2nd one is peppermint tea, I have to say I've started having these instead of proper brews. It's a great way to have a hot drink without using all your milk allowance!
