You're too kind. We'll be two fans!
I have done a lot of food styling in the past but dropped the hobby. It was far too time consuming and expensive. However, I have kept the pix in my photo files. It was fun whilst it lasted but nowadays, I prefer to help animals.
There is very often some confusion concerning culinary/food terms as we have both UK and US members. In the UK we can those round 'slabs' of protein, burgers. When I mentioned having had a burger on here, some people assume that it's a burger in a bun, whereas it's just the protein food and not a sandwich. BTW the brand 'This isn't Pork' is one of the best ever. Their bangers are to die for.
I use plant based spread (Flora) when making potatoes Anna. It's a wonderful dish that so many people never make or have even heard of.

Leftovers:
A pea protein schnitzel, roast spicy parsnips with Old Bay seasoning, leftover ww macaroni/spinach cheeze plus a white cabbage
slaw with Dijon vinaigrette and yeast flakes.
A slice of chocolate cake.
I enjoyed a huge dinner last night, as I had only eaten a very small sandwich in the afternoon whilst I spent all afternoon catching/de-stringing pidges.

Brown rice with creamy chickpeas, dill, Seitan & red peppers.
The Seitan came from a morning's messing around to remind me how VWG works: I made a standard dough with gram flour, nooch & spices, and tried boiling, frying, baking and even microwaving it - both free to expand and encapsulated by cling film and Al foil. Generally, I found it doesn't really matter if it's ultimately being served in a sauce.
As always in science, more research is needed...

I had nibbles and gin cocktails at my friend's place. I was still hungry when I got back home so had
some leftovers, but not enough to eat a proper meal.

Chickpea mayo sarnie fried like a croque monsieur.
The filling was chickpeas, mayo, oatly sour cream, dill, red cabbage, nooch, ACV, and thinned with plant milk. Then thickly crammed between 2 slices of the least natural white bread I could find*. Served with a spinach, rocket and grated carrot salad.
*I do like proper bread, but there's a time and a place...

i spent 7 hours in town de-stringing pidges so I got home quite late after having popped into Lidl's. I bought a huge box of leeks and shared with my friend in the garden flat. I made some braised leeks with spicy air fried soya curls. A slice of toasted artisan ww bread with herb/garlic cream cheeze plus a free pistachio cookie from Land & Monkeys which was absolutely delicious.
we had pan seared burritos last night - took the leftover smeat from Sunday night and mashed a can of pinto beans and added it in with some more spices and tomato paste - wraps were PC brand protein tortillas and with a some cheez shreds added it was all very tasty

A broad bean, kale & potato bowl with fried red bell peppers on top and a slice of bread. I blended the kale with tahini so it was a bit like a pesto.
Tasty and very filling, but I've earned the calories today.
