Lynne and I started a different approach to food in July 2021.
Our ethos is to eat as less processed food as possible and have come to realise that good whole food is actually far from bland and has so much taste.
We cook with less sauce and flavour with herbs, spices, salt and pepper.
Anything that needs oil we use the fat free type of sprays.
The biggest problem we now find is when we eat out (not that often), we can be quite dissapointed in the quality of many places, when in fact good tasty food can be so simple that even I can prepare it!
I have started this diary today (11 Oct 2022) after talking to my son, Ian who was asking what we ate and was after ideas for himself.
