[QUOTE="rosserk, post: 922388, member: 166333"] H Hi, I'm exactly the same, not great in the kitchen, I'm not a foody! I have also never been fond of cakes, biscuits or chocolate. Lately I've been craving cheesecake but because they are usually high in carbs I looked for an alternative low carb recipe and found one that's really simple. The only set back was the base was made of almond flour, I looked in every supermarket and the only place I could find it was Holland and Barrett. It was £8.99 for a small bag! I did buy it and I have tried the recipe which turned out brilliantly, loved the cheesecake and so did the rest of the family! I looked for a source of cheaper flour online and read you can make your own simply by grinding almonds, which I've tried and it's really easy. I'm now making a couple of cheesecakes a week and really enjoying them when I get a sweet craving. The cheesecake has no effects my blood sugar but a shop bought one will raise it to 13+! I've also been eating a lot of stir frys which are really easy to vary just by changing the meat and work out really cheap and only take about ten minutes to prepare. Hope you manage to find some simple alternatives to fit your lifestyle. [/QUOTE]
