Worked out very well, yum!

Your timing for the sausage boats make sense, I think I'll give that a try.
The meatzas are a bit ouch, Goonergal used to make them, here's her recipe:
But using the search bar shows other members using different recipes as well.
And I found some more by simply putting meatza in the search bar and ticking the box for searching this thread.
Been to London for the day, helping my daughter move house. She treated me to dinner as a thank you, even better she’d found a low carb pasta takeaway called Nudi, strange name but my choice was lovely. For 3.7g carbs I had low carb pasta with chicken in a cream and spring onion sauce.

I think there are two branches, one in Fulham and another in Vauxhall. Not sure where ours came from as my daughter ordered it through Deliveroo or Ubereats:Wow! What a find. Whereabouts is it in London? I go up every year and although Nando’s is always my first port of call ( to Paul’s disgust: ‘it’s just chicken!’) it’d be good to have another option.
They are pickled. I checked the ingredients. There is some sugar (horrors!) in it, too, but it's well down the ingredients list. I also spotted mango and cornflower, but again, well down the list.That cauliflower looks a lot like a kind of piccalilli, except the florets are larger and the "sauce" a lot less. I assumed it was just spiced and not pickled, and decided to have a go at that myself. Not today though - not a day for standing, I think. That's why:
Breakfast: 3 strawberries, 5 raspberries with double cream poured over them.
2nd meal: the minced beef and pea mixture from a couple of days ago. Enough for a meal today and another later - maybe tomorrow.
Taking me all my time to clear the backlog of washing up, drying and putting away from my guests' visit on Friday. I didn't make things any better by deciding to clear out a wardrobe of all my size 18 dresses to pass on to DIL. She has just started her new job and has found that none of her old dresses or skirts fit her. She needs something a bit subdued from her normal brightly coloured and decidedly unusual taste. My too small dresses fit the bill and will tide her over for now. I thought I might find 2 or 3 size 18, but in fact found about 10. I was aching badly by the time I finished.
I had a go at this today with a beef sausage.I just saw this short video on Facebook and I want to try!

And a screenshot of the relevant part for the ones without Facebook.
He topped those sausage boats with cream cheese, some seasonings, jalapeno and grated cheese but I'm sure you can use any filling you like, looks quick and easy.
He also threw some mixed veggies (guessing mainly onions and bell pepper) on the tray next to the sausage boats to bake together and make a full meal.
Those infections can be nasty and deeper than you think.Today was a nightmare. I put on a new dexcom sensor but forgot to use alcohol swabs and the old site is infected. Oh well.
I have to say I have recently tried the Sainsburys frozen cauliflower cheese and it is absolutely delicious and 3g carb for half of the bag which is a lot!It's straight out of M&S, I'm afraid (as were the anchovies in parsley & basil). It's the start of their summer bits and bobs coming in.
Welcome to the thread I find that it makes no difference Brown or white pasta both put up my blood glucose and are ruled out for me. I also have to check the bean pastas some are much higher carbs than others but I find the pasta I can eat - but only a small amount is the carbzone low carb pasta it's high protein and 14g of carbs and 60g of protein per 100g but I only eat around 15 to 20 grams of it -not only because of carbs but also price! I buy from Ocado but did a search online and looks like Morrisons sell carbzone as do Amazon. I also find it tastes just like pasta did when put in a sauce.I had edamame & mung bean fettuccine, with a chopped frankfurter, cream cheese, gruyere and cheddar cheese. I haven't had it before: the texture was good, I guess I'll get used to the taste.
Does anyone have any good alternatives? I've got wholewheat pasta, which is better than white, but still not low carb. Although it should have a low GI.

Many on this thread use veggies as a base instead of pasta for sauces I love shredded cabbage.
Hi Ian, I haven’t tried it yet but I’ve brought some 100% green pea pasta from Sainsbury. I’m hoping it’s good and I’m hoping it won’t raise my BG. I’m very much at the experimental stage at the moment…..I had edamame & mung bean fettuccine, with a chopped frankfurter, cream cheese, gruyere and cheddar cheese. I haven't had it before: the texture was good, I guess I'll get used to the taste.
