I often need easy hacks to have a meal, like today when my meal will be a fish fillet a la bordelaise from Aldis freezer section.
So how do you make your microwaved cauliflower cheese?

Pic of yesterdays meal for tax: A perfectly cooked pepper steak (lucky me, I never cook steak), a cob of corn with butter and salt, and a side salad of lots of onion, tomato, cottage cheese, balsamic vinegar, some leftover lemon mayo found in the fridge and salt and pepper. Salad not in the picture.

That steak looks fabulous!
Easy cauli cheese: just put cauli florets and cream in a microwave bowl, cover and zap for a few minutes until it’s cooked to your liking. When it’s done, stir in grated cheese, it’ll melt in the hot cream. Season to taste. Voila!

B- yoghurt and M&S grain free granola.
L- cheese, Serrano ham, olives and walnuts. DGF Crimbo Crumble

D- Pork & mushroom stroganoff with green beans and purple sprouting broccoli. 4 sq Montezuma’s AB

That sounds perfectly easy, and I've added it to my CMT.

No cooking today so my main meal was two slices of LC toast with 7 different toppings. A very interesting and flavourful German liverwurst, store bought tuna mayo, German 'zwiebelmettwurst', stinky Muenster, a cheese I forgot the name of, a Dutch nettle cheese, and chorizo.

I completely misjudged and mistimed my insulin, so high carb additions halfway through and after my meal were honey and doritos to treat a nasty hypo.

Usual brunch. Dinner was lamb chop with cauliflower and broccoli, 1 small glass red wine, 4 squares of Montezuma's finest. M y meals might sound boring but they aren't - always delicious. Keto can be great.

Hugs for the hypo @Antje77 must be really scary. I wonder if your Dutch nettle cheese is like our Yarg ( it’s a hard-ish cheese wrapped in nettle leaves. They also make one wrapped in wild garlic leaves which is delicious)
Today’s food started with 3 black coffees until lunchtime.
Lunch was a leftover cold pheasant breast wrapped in bacon with salad.
Dinner- large pork chop, easy cauli cheese and sauteed veg which included the cauli leaves.

Thanks @DJC3 . The hypo wasn't scary, just very annoying and it made me feel like **** for half an hour, nothing worse.
I've wanted to try your yarg since that cheese thread I started exactly two years ago: https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/fantastic-cheeses-and-where-to-find-them.200812/

I didn't find any when I was in the UK last year so I'll have to come back.

Today was another lazy meal, I seem to have lost momentum when it comes to cooking, must be the time of year.
Thanks Aldi, I still like your fish fillet a la bordelaise, and with those lemon slices it even looks like food!
