Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted member 475901" data-source="post: 2648181">I struggle with a cooked breakfast, especially eggs in the morning so developed a flaxseed-based porridge.I either have protein such as cheese, or a very low-carb cake for lunch, with coffee or don't have lunch.Simple dinners would usually be chicken, fish or egg based with 2-3 servings of green veg/salad and maybe cauliflower rice/mash. I like to add spices or herbs to the protein to vary my meals, or just lemon juice on fish with black pepper. Other low carb veg include mushrooms so I can make a stir fry with the cauliflower rice. Or a chicken curry - tomato or cream-based are best.I use turkey mince to make a spaghetti bolognese style sauce, with either courgetti or just green beans and cheese. The turkey/mushroom/tomato mix can last me 5 days so I may add chilli to two portions instead of Italian herbs.Then either greek yogurt with berries or a low carb rhubarb 'crumble' made with ground almonds instead of flour that I serve with double cream or real egg sugar-free custard.Today I had the last of some mash made from a mix of 'mashed potato' squash and cauliflower topped with poached eggs, as I've had a large filling this afternoon.</blockquote>
