    High protein bread rolls recipe

    Thank you MrsA2. Nice to be back. Just a quick update: Tried second lot - substituted rye flour for the oats - same quantity. I divvied the dough into 10 smaller rolls this time. It worked really well. Did the sums, they come out at 5.8g carbs per roll if you do 'em in batches of 10...

    High protein bread rolls recipe

    Before anybody says "this is an old thread"..... Yes, and so am I, and I've been away a long time. Lost it, gone downhill, but realised gotta get my backside in a sling. So tried this recipe out. First time in a bread machine. Disaster. But it tasted OK, so.... Step 2. (With measurements...

    COVID-19: are you wearing a mask?

    The point is you don't infect anybody else. If you know this, then not wearing a mask is just selfish.

    COVID-19: are you wearing a mask?

    Yes but you miss the point that the mask is to protect other people from you - not to protect you from other people! That mask has an exhalation valve that does nothing to trap the infectious droplets that you breathe out, so it is useless to protect others. It will provide you with a little...

    NHS Dietitian Contradicting Himself

    He is an idiot. How is low BG "cheating"? The plain truth is, the NHS guidance just doesn't work. Low carb does. You - and crucially he- know this is true. Ask him WHY low-caring is not "advisable". I suppose having your limbs cut off is? Anyway, well done, and keep up the good work.

    I eat quite a lot of saturated fat - I'm on LCHF diet. At my last blood test, I was told that overall cholesterol level was a bit elevated but that the HDL/LDL ratio (that is what matters) was really good.

    That is not false information - it is true. Just ask Richard Branson how many contracts Virgin Care has recently been awarded? Don't forget, private companies are only in it to make a profit - profit which should be being spent on patient care and services instead of being salted away in an...
