To my own surprise, I have been eating remarkably well. There are enough options in Oxford to avoid having "bangers and mash" all of the time. Some meals I have had at various pubs and restaurants include fish and chips, summer squash soup, and french toast. I make sure to have plenty of leftovers so I can take it back to the dorm and have it for another meal the next day--that way, I do not overeat and I get the most out of the meal. In the pantry, I stocked up on bananas and cornflake cereal for breakfast and macaroni and cheese, organic spinach spaghetti for lunch and dinner. I plan to buy more greens and meats to mix in with pasta dishes or have separately.
On the way back to the dorm, I stopped in Summertown at a place called Cook. The store sells microwaveable healthy foods--think Lean Cuisine, but healthy and homemade. I bought salmon and asparagus gratin, meringues, and a small raspberry lemonade for a lovely price of only 8 pounds.
