What have you eaten today?

[Avocado Sevenfold]

Last night's Mexican dinner for me and a couple of pals:

Starter: jalapeño poppers
Main: Mexican cauliflower rice, spicy veg, guacamole, bean salad, shredded romaine, sour cream, salsa and cheese. For the carbers there were also wraps and lime Doritos.
Pudding: individual boozy chocolate and raspberry trifles
Loads of wine.

It was a good night. Had a comment today from one that they have a rotten hangover because the food was too healthy! Not enough stodge to soak up the alcohol

If you google there are all sorts. I make mine by melting 200g butter, 200g peanut butter and 100g 75% choc, then pour into silicone ice cube/choc moulds. chill in the fridge and pop out. They just help to boost the amount of fat I eat, and taste nice too.

Thanks @Lenny3 - that does sound nice

I think the crystals really... It's all I can get here - no lovely jelly cubes...

thanks @Susikav

Rose28.... Just found the other cheesecake recipe I really like... http://lowcarbcrock.com/2013/03/low-carb-no-bake-cheesecake/ It's really lovely and a bit easier...

that sounds lovely. I could use my Skinny Coffee Syrups for flavourings and sweetness

B: breakfast slab, coffeencream
L: hummus, green smoothie, 9bar
D: Goan curry again

I must ask, @Brunneria - what is breakfast slab please?

It's the good ole breakfast ball but cooked meatloaf style (easier to cook, store and handle)

This thread makes me sooooo hungry but got lots of ideas for different meals.

Breakfast today - a pack of those breakfast biscuits I found lurking in the cupboard - McVities Cinnamon/apple/oats 35g carbs per pack - surprisingly 5.4 to 6.00 at two hours, 6.1 2.5 hrs and pre lunch (3hrs) 5.9

Lunch small pot hummus, hunk of Wensleydale and 6 Krackawheat - (up by 1.1 yesterday) let you know today's shortly

Well I did well to go no higher than 6.9 considering I also had 2, the last two, shortbread biscuits from a tin I was bought at Xmas. No more than one a day until now - well I couldn't leave that last one all by itself, it would have been cruel..... still maybe on the way up tho but shan't test as the duo won't be repleated

Sounds tasty - I like the idea of cooking it as a slab - not up for rollling 40 little balls out of it .

Thanks

I have learned that I seem to be incapable of following recipe without tweaking it somehow - not always for the better, but in this case it works ok.
Inability to follow orders is hardly a strength and definitely a failing at times. (Mainly the latter!!!)

But sometimes we just have to accept our basic nature...

Sounds like you like to do your own thing(s) regardless of . . . .

ooooh, just like me - I'm lucky if I follow a recipe for the first time without changing something - Odd times I do to see what the "original" should be like then adapt to taste after. Inability to follow orders may be a failing in the army but it is a strength to have confidence in doing things your own way - its INITIATIVE ......

Tonight im trying venison burgers and cauliflower cheese.

 

[alliebee]

Alliebee! Hope you're well xx

I bought cauliflower yesterday, I'll find a recipe and try this ... So many positive comments about it.

Its lovely. Just cook cauli pieces till soft. Drain very well. Then mash with butter and a little cream and add grated cheese at the end and stir in well
I like it better than mashed potato

Breakfast was bacon and watercress
Lunch out with family. Fillet steak salad peppercorn sauce mushrooms and just 2 chips
Supper will be a bowl of home made veggie soup

Going to have some "fish pie mix" fish with tons of green beans and a touch of pkt parsley sauce. Hungry now but outdoor dogs still having their teatime & play. Too early to eat for it to last until bedtime anyhow

This is why cats rock, they are much lower maintenance

Would a nice cup of coffee take the edge off your hunger?

Normally, yes, but am outside now and actually awash with the stuff . Had far more than usual already.....

I keep thinking about making fat bombs but when I buy peanut butter I just end up eating it all!

Are we allowed peanut butter then?

 

[Brunneria]

Are we allowed peanut butter then?

Yup.

But some ppl say that if you eat too much pb weight loss will stall.

But that applies to a lot of foods!
