A typical food day

Breakfast: 1 Round buttered toast (home made low carb bread, Burgen soya would do) 2 scrambled eggs or 1 boiled egg or peanut butter (no added sugar) or Asda own brand yeast extract.
Or, berries (Blueberries, Rasberries, Morello Cherries, Cranberries etc.) and Greek yoghourt.
Or, Omelet 2 eggs, grated cheese added, or vegetables pre-cooked and chopped.
Or fried egg with 2 Linda Mc Cartney vegetarian sausages, or 2 rashers veggie bacon (Asda) maybe a tblspn of sugar free beans.

Lunch: Salad, cheese (Feta, Mozzerella, or Cheddar) one round of bread or black bread (Rye). 1 piece of fruit (not banana or grapes).
Dinner 2 Vegetarian sausages, burgers or any of the ready made veggie protein items. 3 small new potatoes and/or swede, sweet potato. Any sort of greens, plenty of them, a small carrot, boiled onion, hot beetroot (try it it’s nice sliced) a few peas (not to many) a little gravy.
Or, Wholemeal Spaghetti (about 25 grams) with tomato sauce and veggie mince etc.
Or, a small pie made with veggie chunks, vegetables (no potato or parsnips) topped with mashed swede and cheese.
Or, Vegetable curry, no rice, added lentils.

A pudding of fruit and crème fresh, or yoghourt (plain Greek), or a small amount of Diabetic ice cream.

Snacks: any sort of nuts or seeds, cheese crisps, a slice of Gouda cheese, a veggie pepperoni, hard boiled egg, 2 dried apricots, 2 prunes, yoghourt and berries, swede crisps, a small Cox’s type apple (large Pink Lady etc are a bit carby for me)
It’s not exhaustive, just an indication. It’s much what I eat though, and if it helps any veggies on here with a few ideas that’s good.

Hi H,

Breakfast - 2 slices burgen, butter, occasionally 1 tsp jam/marmalade or 1 slice burgen, scrambled poached or boiled egg. 100 ml of fruit juice diluted half with water.

Cappuchino mid morning (must find out how to spell that properly!)

Lunch - Salad with a couple of slices of meat or feta cheese, or 1 slice cheese on toast, occasionally sardines on toast.

Mid afternoon Tea with milk

Dinner - Salmon, tuna or haddock with salad or broccoli & cauli and maybe two baby new potatoes. Meat options are normally chicken, lamb or pork.

If I feel like a snack it will be a bit of cheese wrapped in a slice of ham. Occasionally I will have two squares of 85% chocolate and I find if I sprinkle it with a tiny pinch of salt, it's not quite so bitter.

Oh yes, one day a week I have a cooked breakfast of sausage, egg, bacon, mushrooms, tomato and a tablespoon of baked beans and once a week I'll make a curry and have 3 tablespoons of basmati rice and a cucumber, onion and tomato salad. Have to make sure I clean my teeth after that one :lol:
