Not beautifully presented but oh so yummy

Got home from CV (CrossFit Victoria) to an empty house. Thought I might do a spot of cooking to keep myself entertained. Decided on Kylie Kwong’s – Stir-Fried Eggplant with Homemade Chilli Sauce from an episode of MasterChef. Needed to use up some minced beef as well so made my own take on a spicy beef stir-fry.

Had 3 squares of Lindt Chocolate for dessert… naughty I know.

How good does it look once you plate it up?

Crossfit with Zane

Did a short IF to start this log. Lunch after finishing work early at 1pm. Bacon wrapped mini fritta X 3 with side of avocado.

Absolutely divine, thanks to Girl gone Primal for the recipe. Only took 25 minutes from start to finish.
