What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

[maglil55]

Surprise surprise......bed 6.1 FBG 6.6 and pre breakfast 7.9. It's getting better.
B. 2 boiled eggs with 1/4 M&S egg and bacon salad (No egg from the salad made them separately)
L. Leftover Thai red curry from yesterday made with prawns, scallops, cauliflower rice, mushroom stir fry.
M&S chicken and bacon with salad.

The M&S chicken and bacon with salad is dinner - I am not having a ginormeous lunch

Thats great! Congratulations!!!

Thanks @Chook

Don't want to count my chickens (if you pardon the pun), but also a lower rise today (although not the drop down to 4 point something).

Made with oopsie bread. This was a ham version. Yesterday's had chicken on it. Here's the oopsie recipe.

Does it taste like an omelette?

Does it taste like an omelette?

Not really. It's very light (which probably explains it's other name - cloud bread). I suppose a lot depends on the eggs you use. I use medium free range. It has more of a spongy texture.

Today:
Cheese omelette and mushrooms (what's new )

Cheese and ham omelette with salad in the canteen

Lidl roll with butter and a chunk of stilton - just the right shape for a Lidl roll!

Glass of red to wash it down

B: English breakfast 'muffin', poached eggs
L: 1/2 Lidl protein roll with tuna mayo, chunk of Ribblesdale blue goats cheese (my current favourite!)
D: chicken breast stuffed with pesto; courgette and garlic gratin topped with mozzarella - was v yummy

Have to also confess to a slice of coffee and walnut cake too. No, not some low carb, home baked sensible option

Hello
Yesterday's food
B. Raspberries and yoghurt
L. In a bistro with limited choice. I asked for a bacon, Brie and cranberry sandwich with a aside salad. The waitress asked whether I wanted bread or a panini. I answered that it didn't matter as I couldn't eat bread. Whereupon she asked me if I would simply like it done as a salad which I thanked her for. It was smashing.

D. A fabulous meal cooked by friends. Curried fish, kebab, and spiced liver. Meat and spinach curry but I couldn't resist half a naan.

Today
B. Bacon, scrambled egg and tomato,

L. Camambert and walnuts.

D. Spiced liver. Strawberries with cream.

Low carb lemon cloud pie!
Today is Sunday so a campari and soda and a wee prosecco will figure in the proceedings. Will also try out the lemon cloud pie on the carb eaters but not tell them it is low carb.

I love your Sunday menus.

How were the celeriac chips?

Really nice - completely different to how we've had them before. The blanching, garlic salt and smoked paprika were well worth the extra tiny bit of effort.

 

[Chook]

Breakfast: Bacon, eggs, grilled tomato, mushrooms, chipolatas
Lunch: Nothing or a couple of cold chipolatas
Dinner: A three game bird roast (duck, goose and guinea fowl) from Lidl, roast parsnips, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, rubber beans, low carb cranberry sauce

Red wine and quite possibly a g'n't

I've had that 3 bird roast from Lidl - really good - enjoy.
My Sunday menus are always geared around family feeding. My Mum used to gather everyone at hers for Sunday dinner. It was always varying numbers (and still is). When my Mum died at the end of 1982 I kind of inherited the Sunday feeding - no idea how it just happened. Takes some planning and I like the quieter weeks when there is just a few of us. I do like though that some of them are slowly being converted to low carb alternatives. They are finally seeing the food isn't weird - just different.
