- soaps on telly and people talking about the characters as if they were real.
I've already posted that I'm developing new recipes because my T1 husband has advanced Kidney failure. He now requires a diet low in protein as well as controlled carbs.[kidney failure makes insulin persist longer in the system and it's unpredicatble]
This week we've been trying out Bulgar wheat. It's a great alternative to rice or couscous. it can be made tasty and is low GI and fairly low in carbs overall.[about 38% by weight cooked] a small portion was about 20 carbs, as I served it wih mushroom strogonoff for lunch.
I've also mad a kind of tagine with onions, various coloured peppers, courgettes and some dried fruit. I used Rose harissa to season and it made a very nice dish
