Anyone else found themselves craving carbs with the colder weather??
 
Really badly...I don't usually suffer with carb cravings but I even stole a glance at the chocolate counter today...something I never ever do. More specifically though...mash potato...cauli mash just aint cutting it this week
 
Yes definitely! Craving soup with a crusty baguette!!! Oh well! Onwards & upwards!
 
Cheer up, its not such a bad sin ........
 
Here you go:



Low Carb Hot Choc
Boil kettle.
Add a heaped teasp of good quality cocoa powder to a big mug
Add 1.5 ish heaped teasp of sugar substitute to mug
Make the powders into a paste with a dribble of water (get rid of the lumps)
Add boiling water and stir until smooth
Top up with double cream.
Add caramel, lemon, orange or mint essences, if desired
Enjoy

All quantities adjustable
 
Wow...will definitely be picking up some cocoa powder tomorrow
 
I crave cars in colder weather, roll on the summer. I also eat more in the winter
 
I made a low carb veggie soup, 2 small red onions, mushrooms and courgette fried in butter with 4 Quorn chicken fillets diced seasoned Turmeric, fenugreek, salt and pepper, water added along with 2 packs of slim pasta, then a blitz with a blender.

I had 6 bowls yesterday and there is as much left for today, it's a pretty much fake soup, it's also pretty low cal except for the butter, but quite tasty and is quite convincing as a winter soup.
