    Keto Meal Recipes

    Hi I'm a Newbie to this group so apologies if there is an obvious place for this question. I've started following the "Keto Plan" and I'm happy enough in what I can and cannot eat, and roughly in what proportions. Over two weeks my bloods have stabilised from round 8.00 to around 5.50 mmol/L...

    Keto quiche

    A friend put me onto this Keto quiche recently, it's insanely good. https://www.ketogenic-diet-resource.com/low-carb-quiche-recipes.html I've swapped to cheaper cheese and added shredded bacon. Amazing. Also you can throw vegetables into it.

    Bulletproof Marmite

    We’ve all heard of and probably drunk a fair bit of bulletproof coffee, but have you tried bulletproof marmite? I sometimes want something savoury, and not full of caffeine - also I drink my coffee black, so I’m not a fan of putting butter in it. 1. Heaped teaspoon of marmite and a tbsp...

    Erythritol

    Calling on the brain trust again! (I don't know how I managed before I stumbled across this web site) I have just used erythritol for the first time to make truffles. Unfortunately I can feel the granuler texture throughout the truffles. As this is a no bake recipe, is there a way of dissolving...

    Pinto, Courgette & Mushroom Bake - is it okay?

    Hi, I have a favourite recipe that I couldn't eat under the Slimming World regimen, because of the sauce. I was wondering if under the diabetics guidelines it might be okay - yes, I know I should test to see, my test meter should be here at the end of the week, but until then - is there any...
