What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

[Antje77]

Have been spending the weekend with friends so eating has been away from normal routines but remained low carb. Dinner this evening was at a tapas bar, I had roasted salted almonds, meatballs in tomato sauce, and a side salad.

How coincidential!

I also had dinner with friends at a tapas bar today.
I had prawns in hot garlic oil and on the empty plate (slate?) were very lightly battered calamari, eaten before I made the picture.

I also had some roasted almonds from the person at the opposite side of the table and some cheese from the platter the people to my right shared for dessert.

That looks great! I wouldnt have thought of adding frankfurters, what a good idea.

It makes up for not having smoked fish. Plus I like smoked frankfurters.

Oh yes, tapas are meant to be shared @Antje77. Much of the pleasure as well as the fun is about sharing a plate with your friends. Those prawns look scrumptious.

I've noticed this previously @IanBish. Is that because you're not a fan of smoked fish or simply because there was none to hand?

I don't eat meat myself, but your "kedgeree" recipe might work well using smoked mussels or smoked oysters.

Today:

B: Two poached eggs topped with a knob of butter, avocado and four tiger prawns, seasoned with a good grinding of black pepper.
Water to swallow tablet.
Espresso.

Courgetti alla puttanesca made with anchovies, Kalamata olives, capers, canned tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, butter, parsley and spiralised courgettes.
Braised cavolo nero with garlic and toasted almonds.
Skipped pud.
Water to drink.

D: Seafood salad made with brown shrimps, mussels, lettuce, finely shredded red cabbage, apple peel, celery, baby plum tomatoes and mustard cress with a dollop of aioli for dipping, topped with toasted pistachios.
Water to swallow tablets.

Had my meals in a funny order again.

Breakfast was deli meats and cheeses, and a couple of olives, something you'd usually eat in the evening, evening meal was what looks like breakfast to the English I suppose.
A tomato was meant to be fried as well, but it was still in my car and I didn't want it enough to crawl out of my tent and through the rain.

I even had dessert!

Living it up, eh? @Antje77. Seriously, it's good to know you're eating well whilst camping.
Who cares what order we eat our meals just as long as they're enjoyable and as low carb as practicable.
