What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

Breakfast kefir and low carb granola then a slice of LC toast with almond butter.
Lunch hummus, radishes, celery and a few nuts followed by a few berries with yoghurt.
I've got a tomato glut - plus when out this morning I found the M and S three ingredients meatballs ( beef, salt and pepper) on yellow sticker half price so decision made about dinner. Slow cooked a hm tomato and garlic sauce and added the meatballs which I'd air fried. Bought two packs of meatballs so portion in sauce in the freezer. Served with low carb pasta, fresh basil and grated cheese.

My post just disappeared, doh!
Anyway didn’t have breakfast, lunch was lettuce boats filled with leftover beef short rib meat, avocado, red pepper, ginger&turmeric sauerkraut. Stewed rhubarb and Greek yoghurt to follow.
Dinner was kobi keema and a small apple from my neighbours garden. Doesn’t seem to have caused too much havoc with BG thank goodness. I love apples and miss them a lot.

Lunch cheese and low carb seeded crackers followed by a few garden berries and spoon of yoghurt
Dinner HM LC quiche served with salad followed by LC chocolate muffin.
 
Toasted 90 second mug bread topped with M&S Super Seedy nut butter for breakfast.
Packed lunch again - cheese&marmite low carb roll and a packet of sugar free chocolate covered freeze dried raspberries my daughter found in a health food shop. Didn’t like the chocolate much, tasted like cooking chocolate but less than 3G carb for the whole 50g pack. They ended up being quite moreish.
