I keep the bad presentation for my food to myself:D

Hi @Antje77. They are made similar to fathead dough.
300g mozzarella
150g almond flour or ground almonds slightly cheaper that the flour
Heaped tea spoon baking powder
Tea spoon cream cheese
Half tea spoon Italian seasoning
Half tea spoon garlic powder
Half tea spoon chia seeds (optional)
Half tea spoon chilli flakes
3 x medium eggs. 2 for dough. 1 for egg wash
Preheat oven to 180c

Add all dry ingredients together
Melt mozzarella in microwave add cream cheese. Pour the dry ingredients in mix and add eggs. Add some flour to you counter top and knead ingredients, you may need to add a little more flour as mix can be a little wet. I cut into four pieces.

Take each piece and flatten out either circular or rectangular to around quarter inch thick and add whatever your favourite pizza toppings are along with pizza sauce and mozzarella on half and fold over the other half. Use a fork to flatten the edges and paste on some of the beaten egg. I load them with loads of different meats and plenty of mozzarella. 15-20 mins in the oven till dark golden.and enjoy.


keto pizza :happy:

thanks

Three slices middle bacon, two egg and cheese omelette, tomatoes, two slices of toast and ginger marmalade for breakfast.
No smoko, or cordial today as I have started to put the osmolax into my bottles of water, two scoops into a 600 ml bottle,
Rib steak and veggies, gravy for lunch.
Mashed up leftover vegies with a plash of kimchi mixed in toasted sandwiches for supper at six.

No snacks watching Prime, just a glass of single malt whisky.

Ginger marmalade is one of my greatest temptations, but I like all ginger come to that. Best place to visit on the Sunshine Coast is the Ginger Factory at Yandina if you are ever in Australia.

Happy mothers day to Australian mums.

Hi All been missing a few days mainly due to persistent tummy problems so been eating little and randomly. Hoping to speak to GP on Tues and hopefully get referred on. Friday morning had 1 biscuit with my mug of tea just to take my tablets with. Lunch was a slice of buttered LivLife toast, more tea. Supper was a LoDough pizza with small amounts goats cheese, halved cherry toms and olives. Yesterday for brekkie had small slice of ordinary white toast with my tea. Lunch was mug of chicken soup followed by yogurt. Supper was Mr PMs request of Indian t/a so had a popadom and a cauli bhajee, soft and not too spiced. No idea what today’s offerings will be other than chicken in the evening. The trouble is with my tummy issues the food that suits best is white toast so might have to give in on that till I feel better.

Photos include a regular item my hm yoghurt plus a chocolate that is new to me!
Out first thing so started with lunch
Lunch small salad with some kimchi and leftover cooked chicken thigh followed by my usual yoghurt with small amount of fruit - although technically rhubarb is, I believe a vegetable. Have my hm yoghurts daily but never shared a pic and hopefully shows just how thick and creamy they turn out - no straining needed to thicken! I can almost slice it - abit like clotted cream. Also tried two squares-8g - of a new to me chocolate it’s only 7g carb per 100g so very few about ?0.56?per the two squares? I think the chocolate may be an acquired taste I love their almond and their orange and peppermint oil ones but this is distinctly salty and,well , Hempy! I’ve got the feeling though that I may develop a liking - meanwhile I found it easier to restrict today to two squares!!
Dinner steak with local asparagus, mushrooms in butter and cauliflower mash with glass of dry red wine followed by lc blondie.
Edit to add @Antje77 just want to wish you happy sailing and hope it goes really well

Friday 6 May - bed & FBG 6.7 - After school run Hubby &I were out straight away to get a new Garden Storage box after ours was destroyed by the storms. Ended up buying 2! Goodness know what will go in them as we dumped a lot when the previous one was destroyed.

B. TAG and 3 M&S crispy cheese crackers with pate.

L. Nothing

D. A bit of a mish mash thanks to M&S getting their summer range in. An assortment of scallops, squid in lemon/chilli/coriander, tiger prawns, spinach, exotic mushrooms and santini tomatoes. I hadn't really fancied anything but this was really nice.

The latest HC gin truffle.
