Rubbery and flaccid meringues? No one wants that! Thanks for trying again @debrasue
 
L: heaven .... LivLife bread, good quality ham and strong cheddar - under the grill, a proper toastie. Not tried this with LivLife bread before but so so tasty
 
Day 7 fast.

D chilli con carbs, cream, lettuce cheese. Choc chia pudding

But it was too bland so I added a square of dark choc melted and it was so much better!

Ooh that's a bit hard core! Perhaps you better not read about all the lovely food the rest of us are having over the next 4 days!
 
B: coffeencream
L: had remembered that school lunch today was going to be a buffet sandwich carb fest to celebrate the Queen's birthday so had took in my own crackers and cheese to avoid the temptation. Sadly hadn't anticipated the celebratory cupcakes in the staffroom with the Queen's face on in rice paper. Felt it would be akin to treason to refuse one and I didn't feel that my public execution would be a good thing for small children to witness so did my duty and ate one
D: bolognaise (the last of the batch) with roast cauli; home made strawberry ice cream
 
B: Sukrin roll, sugar-free peanut butter, sugar-free lemon curd

B: coffeencream
L: 2 chicken drumsticks, lettuce, coleslaw, guacamole (that's a new one on the school salad bar!)
D: chicken peanut curry with cauli and a lot of spinach from the garden - it has gone a bit rampant! Salted caramel Oppo ice cream
S: some gluten free ginger biscuits found in a colleague's draw in desperation whilst trying to proof read and correct a mountain of reports! Somebody has got a bit of a comma obsession!

I made a roast beef & swiss sandwich with mayo & mustard, couple thin slices of tomato on ...
not bread...
but something that tastes almost just like bread and only 1-2g per slice!
i.e. processed cheese slice (the ones that often come individually wrapped in plastic) .. take plastic off throw on parchment/wax/freezer paper and microwave for 45 seconds to a minute. It'll puff up nicely and be airy and a bit crunchy. What a yummy sandwich it was!
