What was in the chia recipe? Maybe you could change the berry to nut ratio to make the bg rise more gentle. Or try eating it later in the day. I find I can't eat many carbs for breakfast as my well meaning liver usually starts my day off higher than I would like. I can tolerate more carbs later in the day.

Do you ever make your own gorgeous smelling pizza? Lidl roll, roast veg, cheese, herbs. It's brilliant!

I do use the lidl rolls sometimes for a pizza or cheese on toast, also tried making a pizza with cauliflower base which wasn't so successful in terms of looks but tasted OK.

I value my toes more than I desire high carb foods but sometimes the smell of the families foods makes it tough, much easier when they are eating stinky meat stuff - definitely don't want that :)

Will have to plan ahead and get a lidl roll for next "pizza night" I always seem to forget until the smell of pizza wafts out of the kitchen :banghead:

Where did you get the almond cheese? Was it firm or crumbly? Good? Spill the beans. Please and thank you :)
