A week into this challenege I told my husband that I don't seem to have a lot of vitamin E and that it comes from plant oils and also that I don't have a huge amount of salt. He commented that maybe he needs the crisps he eats (which I rarely eat) for vitamin E and salt. He has now give me a packet of crisps twice in one week which is pretty unheard of so I wonder if he thnks I need them to improve my nutrition. I'll have to ask him after he comes home form work.

I had quite a high (relative to my usual) calorie intake which I guess is partly down to having done quite a lot of gardening that day and partly down to no dinner the night before.

I also had a pretty good iron count which I think is mainly down to the curry which is deliberately high in iron (9mg per serving). I'm planning to post the recipe on my recipe blog but I want to take a photo of it first as I think recipes with pictures are much better.
