If you started with the stick and felt it was struggling, you can always swap over. Maybe just start n a nice low speed and take it from there?
That’s good to know, I thought it might not be up to the task. I’d always use a stick blender in preference because of the washing up too!
Hi I’m planning on doing some savoury chaffles to freeze to use in a lasagne. When looked at the diet dr lasagne sheets recipe which have used before the ingredients are very very similar so can see that they would work. I’m planning on taking a lasagne up to mums mid week so thought I’d make some chaffles to use for lasagne and bolognese this weekend and freeze and then assemble just before set off to mums! Will let you know how it goes down with her how would we cope without freezers? I’m like @DCUKMod with her IPs but with freezers - I’ve got two large ones and they are usually full!@shelley262 those cakes look brilliant, thanks for the recipe. Good to know they freeze well too.
@Annb I made the chaffle lasagna sheets last time I did lasagna. It was very good but I hadn’t thought of using the sheets as a pastry casing. Do let us know ( with photos) how they work.
Today I had CWC first thing as usual.
Black coffee out mid morning.
Lunch: egg mayo and a flaxseed bun. DGF choc fudge brownie warm with extra thick cream. All the chocolate ones have more erythritol tang to my taste, but the cream helps. I agree @Brunneria it might be an asset with mint and chocolate.
Dinner Brocolli and cheese soup with a few lc seedy crackers then a couple of HC 100% choc drops.

Why am I not surprised! Your house or at least your kitchen must be capacious....There may only be two of us here, but we have 2 freezers too.

Evening all. I’ve never had any weird after taste or ‘cooling’ effect from erythritol so must be one of the fortunate ones.
Continued this week’s pattern of ridiculously early start at work, followed by breakfast a few hours later then dinner after a manic day of work. Breakfast was bacon eggs and cheese. Dinner was air fried chicken thighs (nice crispy skin) and Halloumi fries. The weekend is very welcome indeed.
IP has been dispatched so hopefully will arrive quickly. Any of you using them able to give me the FB links to the relevant groups?
@ianpspurs I hope you’re wrong!
Have invited you to a couple of FB groups I use ( probably the ones @DCUKMod told me about!)
The steaks I eat weighs around 450 grams, plus whatever the veggies weigh.Thats like 700gm food in dinner, i thought in general people eat 250-350gm of food in dinner.
Please correct me ..
I always measure out my food, mainly because it helps me keep track of calories, also because the green beans and cauliflower contain a nice lot of fiber that helps me, and they are my go to vegetables. Also vegetables are not very calorie dense, they fill me up and I like them. Plus when boiled it's not really a lot. I grew up on meat and vegetables for dinner, this is just my way of doing it a bit more accurately, and indeed it works me.Thats like 700gm food in dinner, i thought in general people eat 250-350gm of food in dinner.
