Does Celleriac taste of celery? It smells a bit like it.
I really hate celery so have avoided it like the plague

I don’t find it does - but I do like celery. I find It is a fairly bland taste like potato and if you cook it in a soup,curry or stew like potato it takes on the flavour of the dish you are cooking.
Edit would you prefer turnip or swede they’d be similar I think if you preferred the taste of them? I find turnip has a stronger flavour but do like this as well.

I find it does but mildly. It doesn't have the awful stringiness, wateriness of celery. It cooks up very differently.
Out of one you could try some mashed with cream cheese and more cheese -yum, or fried into chips, with seasoning of your choice.
It also freezes well
Worth trying as it is so usefull

And, one of my favourites, grated raw in a thick layer on a slice of (LC) bread (or a lettuce/cabbage leaf, or rolled up in a slice of ham) with mayonnaise and salt and pepper. I've loved this since I was a child

Also very good when oven baked with a slice of cheese and optional bacon on top. Works perfect for a lunch to go as well, and you can make it the day before.
 
Hot and spicy sausages, eggs and tomatoes for breakfast, not much as I had to assemble a new office chair at home so just a prawn and salad wrap. Whole "Red Rooster" cooked chicken, and veggies gravy.

 
Hi all
Brunch one LC HM roll with one boiled egg and a couple of slices of cooked ham
Mid pm two hm lc truffles
Dinner beef casserole with steamed cauliflower and one small roast potato( par boiled and frozen about two months ago so hoping starch is more resistant!) one glass of dry red wine pudding sugar free jelly with Greek yoghurt.
 
A bad night , spent most of it listening to the wind (outside wind that is!)
Resulted in a hungry day
B: 3 scrambled eggs
Tried skipping lunch but sneaked in half a ketonut, a chunk of cheese and the other half of ketonut
D: spicy buttery cabbage with bacon. Half a ketonut (should have put them in the freezer!!)
Just as well they are a one off present
 
Lunch - 3 boiled eggs mashed in a cup with butter, salt and pepper.

Snack in the name of research - a caramel fibre one protein bar

Dinner - Beef and Halloumi fajitas with guacamole, cheese, sour cream, jalapeños and hot sauce.

DGF lemon and blueberry slice and a Montezuma truffle.

Tried out my Libre for the first time today and haven’t had a reading above 5 yet. Making me wary that it isn’t working!
 
The libre needs 24-48 hours to bed in, so the advice on here was.
I've put mine in today but won't scan until Saturday
 
Breakfast: my usual low carb coconut ‘porridge’ with strawberries washed down with a black coffee.
Late morning: black coffee and 1/2 packet of coconut bites.
Skipped lunch.
Mid afternoon: black coffee and coffee chia pudding.
Dinner: tomato, mushroom and cheese omelette followed by SF jelly, cream and LC chocolate granola.
 
I just reduce it down. There's something in the back of my mind that @ziggy_w uses potato fibre. There's 20g of carbs in 100g but you wouldn't get close to 100g.
 
They look really good!
