Mixed frozen veg with fresh greens cottage cheese and tuna with kimchi. Not pictured is the donut I had for dessert. It was free from work and I have a hard time resisting food that would otherwise be binned. I am a little conflicted by it - I certainly enjoyed the donut but it wasnt in my meal plan
