Double lamb chops

We couldn't resist picking up some Welsh lamb today - as the opportunity arose. Served like this with a small salad and some new potatoes, the meal comes to around 600 calories because the double chops were much bigger. By the time we removed the fat, the meat content is quite small. As the chops were so thick we cooked them for about 5 minutes either side. They were still pink in the middle, and we rested them for about 5 minutes, then put back in the pan briefly and flash fried.

A really simple dish, ready in the time it took to cook the potatoes - 20 minutes. Costs less than a couple of ready meals for two.

Lunch was a salmon sandwich on the move with some crisps and melon. This came to around 500 calories in total. Breakfast was strawberries and greek yoghurt with a slice of buttered toast and marmalade. With tea and coffee, today has still been a 'good' day for me at around 1500 calories in total.
