...and a bad ass healthy lunch... We are now truly ill... Yesterday I asked Hubs if the term splitting headache had come about because somebody's head had actually split from a headache. It also feels like hot coals have taken up residence in our chests' too.... Melodramatic? Hypochondria?This morning after Hubs had gone to work, I went back to bed, not to sleep, door wide open, able to hear everything, no need to call social services, I just needed to lie down. Small hit the fruit bowl, he polished off 2 bananas, 2 apples, 3 tangerines and then came to tell me he was still hungry. I said I'd get him some breakfast in a bit. You'd think with all that fruit his stomach could have waited a while... Anyway, Little got up a bit later and then..... the three of us had biscuits for breakfast and I don't feel like a bad parent at all... Why? Because I know that later today I will force myself to prepare some nutritious food that will help heal our poorly bodies and I know we don't eat biscuits for breakfast every day. Infact this could be the first time, but it might not be the last.
This sandwich/tortilla filling was excellent... and healthy, we ate lots of it yesterday.
Grated cheddar cheese, chopped cucumber, chopped red pepper, mayonnaise, sweet chilli sauce - mix it all up - fill your sandwich or tortilla - very nice thank you.Today I'll mainly be drinking this lemon, honey and ginger drink that I posted about back in 2007.

Next time ask your hubby to make a quick omelette or something for himself instead of asking you to make it!! Really!!! ;D
Tortilla filling looks tasty. I make Biscuits(southern US biscuits are similar to savory scones) and sausage gravy but only on Sunday mornings. I will post one day! :))
Hope you all get to feeling better soon Amanda. Big hugs. I always make vegetable soup when I feel ill.

Gadfry I do hope you start getting better soon.
Lunch looks like it should help reach healthy.
It's ever so much easier to eat healthily if we can be 'bad' once in awhile!
Hope you are feeling better!

Hope y'all are feeling better. And you know that here in the South, biscuits are nutritious breakfasts!
Amanda, sounds like this did the trick and I am glad to hear you are feeling better.
Any news on the parcel? :)
Hope you are soon feeling much better. Nothing wrong with biscuits for breakfast on occasion! And this filling looks delicious - hope it nurses you back to health.
I do hope you are all feeling a whole lot better soon, and biscuits for breakfast is just toast, butter and topping ingredients in a different order! xx
That little one can pack away the fruit! I love how you filled the tortilla. Hope you are better.
Seriously, it's okay to have biscuits for breakfast every once in a while :)
Hope you are feeling better...
I've been known to eat biscuits for breakfast. I don't even have an excellent excuse like you. At least they're not chocolate biscuits...I tell myself. It could always be worse :}
I hope you are feeling much better soon! It sucks to have to get food ready when you feel so ill and all you want to do is rest!
A good bowl of chicken soup I always ask for when i feel ill.
