Food porn | Summer days

Yesterday I said on Twitter that, because of the good wheater we would have, I would be inspired. And I was right. As I was laying in the sun, I was thinking about what I wanted to write today and I thought, I love good tasty food. Especially when it is healthy and lookes good. Yes OK, I also like unhealthy food very very very much, but because I try to eat healthy and loose weight, I (try to) stick to the healthy foods. 

So my morning starts with 2 slices of bread with cheese or a slice of turkey breast. As this isn't really picture worthy I skip that. Another kind of breakfast I love to eat is some yoghurt with some fresh fruits and a hand of nuts. Sadly, I didn't eat that today so there was no chance of taking a picture. But for lunch I had a delicious pasta salad. My mom made it for our dinner last night and we had some left over, which was enough for my lunch today. It is a simple salad, made of baby spinach, cucumber, tomatoes, pasta, smoked chicken, pine nuts and Parmesan cheese. She also used a pesto dressing to give the salad extra taste.

Later that day, I made myself another slice of bread. I placed some cheese on it and put some tomatoes next to it. Just to give it a nice look. Because really, good looking food usually tastes very good too! Besides the bread I also cut half a mango into pieces. I really enjoy tropical fruits with these tropical temperatures! Bad thing that these tropical fruits quite often make a huge mess when cutting them. I also make sure that I drink enough water. I don't drink bottled water but just tap water and I like to drink that from my dopper. I am reducing plastic waste this way, which is very important for ourselfs and our future! So eventhough buying the bottle might be a bit more expensive, it is totally worth it. 
The light in the picture of the mango shows how amazing the weather here is right now! When I look back on these photos I become so happy! Just because it lookes very tasty and I love the sunny look!

And lastly I have a photo of a typical Dutch popsicle. It is called a 'Raketje', which means rocket. It isn't very healthy, I know. But it isn't as bad like other icecreams. And it helped to cool me down so much! 

My dinner wasn't very impressive. I had some cooked patatoes, cauliflower and some meat. Not sure what it was actually, but it tasted very good. And I think meat should taste good, because otherwise the animal died for absolutly nothing. 
My late night snack won't be impressive either. It will just be a simple apple. 

I think I did a good job on eating healthy today! And tomorrow I'll be fine to because I can enjoy the other half of the mango and the idea already makes me so happy!
What things do you like to eat during hot summer days? I would love to know so that I can make some amazing new things and try them out. So please let me know on twitter (@sjarlieex) or over at my gastbook.
