Yesterday:
Friends, one of whom is type 2 diabetic like me, joined us for lunch.
B: Two poached eggs garnished with a knob of butter, slices of avocado and tiger prawns all seasoned with a grinding or two of black pepper.
Water to swallow tablets.
Espresso.
L: Melanzane alla parmigiana, (aka aubergine parmigiana) using aubergine slices without breading or flour, passata, mozzarella, Parmesan, olive oil, oregano, garlic and seaonings. I tossed some breadcrumbs with a little olive oil plus grated Parmesan and sprinkled on top before baking. (That way, I could serve the topping to those who could handle breadcrumbs, but omit the topping from my own portion and finish with extra Parmesan instead.) Basil, IMHO, works best torn on to the dish at the last minute.
Mixed salad made with watercress, chicory, Romano peppers, radishes, salad onions, basil and black olives, dressed with an olive oil, basil and balsamic vinaigrette and topped with toasted pistachios.

One of my go-to recipes, when family and friends with different food preferences are joining us for lunch, is walnut and mushroom nut roast. It can be prepared and cooked in advance and it's equally nice hot with gravy and a selection of veggies in season or cold with salad. Best of all, it's enjoyed by vegetarians and meat-eaters alike.
Once the ingredients are combined, I use extra eggs and flax 'egg' to bind the mixture, so the customary method using high-carb breadcrumbs and a roux made with wheat flour are not needed.

Yesterday:
We had planned a celebration picnic lunch at a favourite nature reserve, so took marinated olives and pesto sauce to share and made portable sesame tofu kebabs in lettuce wraps. Unfortunately, the weather was indifferent (not cold but blustery) so, following our scheduled wildlife safari, we decamped to my cousin's home where we dined al fresco on her sheltered patio. As a result, we probably spotted fewer birds, but ate better, it must be said. My cousin is an excellent cook!
B: Two eggs scrambled in butter with a generous dollop of double cream, sautéed chestnut mushrooms and a tomato, garnished with flat-leaf parsley and seasoned with a grinding or two of black pepper.

Marinated olives and pesto sauce.

Can I come and eat at yours!?
My menu looks rubbish compared to yours. Could you give me your recipe for homemade aioli please
LivingLightly

Wow! Thanks for the compliment.Can I come and eat at yours!?
You'll need 3-4 cloves of garlic, 120 mls extra virgin olive oil and half a tsp sea salt flakes.
(If fresh garlic is not available, you can substitute garlic powder).
Peel and crush the garlic or grate it very finely.
Put the olive oil, grated garlic and salt in a measuring jug and blend with an immersion or stick blender until thick and smooth.
Half quantities work out well.
