Didn’t deliberately have breakfast but nibbled on raw veg and cheese as I was prepping for big family Sunday lunch.
Lunch was roast topside, roast celeriac, cauli cheese, sprouts with bacon, green beans with flaked almonds, olive oil and lemon. Berries and cream for pud.
This evening I had a few nuts and some feta as meds have to be taken in the evening with food.

Breakfast roasted tomatoes in olive oil served on LC toast topped with a poached egg.
Lunch nuts and a small piece of vintage cheddar followed by a hm LC almond, cinnamon and walnut cookie baked this morning - rest safe in freezer!

Dinner salads, kimchi and left over roast chicken followed by half a slice of a hm LC fruit cake/loaf. I dehydrated blueberries a few days ago for the fruit content. Sliced the fruit loaf and most now in freezer - just a few slices stored in fridge for next few days

Impressive self control with those cookies. I made some a few weeks ago and ate the lot within 3 days!
The fruitcake looks super. Apart from the blueberries ( I have cranberries) what recipe did you use? I was thinking recently that I’d love a fruitcake at Christmas.

Breakfast was 2 scrambled eggs and a slice of ham.
Lunch some slices of posh salami, olives, feta, nuts and seedy crackers ( these are back in my M&S now after a worrying few weeks absence). Berries and cream.

Dinner was a pot pie made with leftover pasty meat and topped with Panda suet pastry. 4 sq Montezuma’s AB

I used the Panda Christmas cake recipe. I've got it on a Panda recipe laminated card from last year. Notice it's not on the Panda recipe site. If you haven't got it let me know and I'll take a photo of the card and post it here.

I used dehydrated blueberries not cranberries I prefer cranberries but didn't have any to hand.I used a 2 pound loaf tin and because it was deeper needed to cook it for another 10 mins ie 80 mins. Otherwise I followed recipe. I didn't add the finish but would probably have a go at that next time. Hope this is useful.

No breakfast then a packed lunch of cheese and ham LC roll and a few nuts.
Granddaughter’s birthday tea, her favourite meal as luck would have it, is my low carb Instant Pot ham and cabbage soup - so that’s what we all had. Banana and choc chip birthday cake for her and a LC brownie for me.

I’ve not tried the additional dates method but you say it’s worth the extra carbs? I like the original but you’ve convinced me to push the boat out next baking day.
