A Spanish-language (Argentine) 'what I eat in a day' vlog of a quiet day at home. Breakfast was mate with hard-boiled eggs sprinkled with everything-bagel seasoning, plus a chocolate Integra protein bar. Midday she made and ate a small homemade savoury tart (pastry disc filled with what looks like tuna, egg and diced peppers) with a glass of cola over ice. Dinner was couscous topped with a pan-cooked salmon fillet in a cream, red pepper, onion and tomato sauce, finished with spring onion and a lemon wedge.

Meal by meal
Breakfast: mate, eggs and protein bar
Good 348 kcalBreakfast is a thermos of mate with hard-boiled eggs in everything-bagel seasoning and a chocolate protein bar.
Eggs plus a protein bar make a solid protein kickoff.
“Endless mate refills: basically a caffeinated IV drip with a straw.”

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Hard-boiled eggs with everything-bagel seasoning2 large eggs with a pinch of seasoning · 102 g
Why this estimateShe said 'huevos' (plural) but gave no number, so 2 is assumed. Includes about 1/2 tsp of sesame 'everything but the bagel' seasoning seen beside the bowl. |

Lunch: tuna mini tart and cola
Mixed 369 kcalLunch is a homemade mini tart stuffed with tuna, egg and peppers, washed down with a glass of cola.
The tuna tart brings protein, the cola brings pure added sugar.
“Homemade tart, factory sugar water. Balance, technically.”
| Food | At | kcal | P | C | F | Fibre |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Homemade mini savoury tart (tuna, egg and pepper filling)1 individual tart about 10 cm across · 180 g
Why this estimateOne dough disc (about 35 g, empanada/tart pastry) filled with about 1/2 cup of shredded tuna (likely canned, ~60 g), 1 egg and diced red and green peppers, then baked. The orange tint may come from tomato or paprika. |
0:08 | 285 | 23 | 21 | 12 | 2 |
Cola soft drink (regular)1 tumbler about 3/4 full over ice, about 200 ml · 200 g
Why this estimatePoured from a ~1.5 L red-label Coca-Cola-style bottle. Counted as full-sugar. |

Dinner: creamy salmon with couscous
Mixed 825 kcalDinner is pan-seared salmon swimming in a creamy pepper, onion and tomato sauce, served over a pile of couscous.
Salmon's healthy fats shine, but the cream piles on saturated fat.
“Couscous that cooks itself? Finally, a side dish with work ethic.”
| Food | At | kcal | P | C | F | Fibre |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pan-cooked salmon in cream, red pepper, onion and tomato sauce1 fillet about 150 g with about 60 ml cream and about 80 g vegetables · 290 g
Why this estimateAtlantic salmon fillet (~150 g raw, ~310 kcal) seared in about 1/2 tbsp oil. Sauce is about 60 ml crema de leche (~200 kcal) with diced red pepper, red onion and tomato. Topped with sliced spring onion and a lemon wedge (negligible). |
0:18 | 600 | 33 | 8 | 48 | 2 |
Couscousabout 1 1/4 cups cooked · 200 g
Why this estimatePlain couscous made by soaking in hot water (she says it doesn't even need cooking). Its yellow colour suggests a seasoned or turmeric mix; assumed no added butter. |
