Following a health scare this week which I shared with my #silverbloggers community in How fragile is life, I was advised to make some serious dietery and lifestyle changes; like getting enough sleep and changing from a high fat diet to a healthier way of eating as well as doing some form of exercise like going for walks.
Life's been hectic ever since my 89 year old Mom fractured her ankle, and of course I've neglected my own health as well as chosen easier meal options, which often were high carb and high fatty meals; NOT GOOD!
Following my health scare, my son who lives a six hour drive away from us, ordered enough food for us for two meals, but went for healthier options although he still could not get away from the crumbed calamari and fish. He ordered veggies with it (no potato fries) and I made Lettuce wraps with the seafood; it was really good as I was not up to cooking last night.
However, what I'd like to share with all our foodies tonight, is how to make a healthy teatime or breakfast treat, that is really scrumptious.
