@IanBish I love the look of your pizza
My food today- Breakfast of 2 fried eggs, mushrooms and 1/2 avocado. Then a very hectic morning.
I came home feeling a bit frazzled to find the postie had delivered my DGF order of Christmassy goodies. So I had lunch of a very small portion of leftover chicken curry followed by a DGF mince pie and extra thick cream. Suddenly all was right with the world!
Dinner was leftover cold gammon with half an avocado and a slaw made with different chopped veg and a bit of chopped apple peel.

Today for lunch I had tinned red salmon low-carb sarnies. The "bread" was a bit odd, I think I prefer the SRSLY brand.

And for dinner I had quite a cheap one. I fried up half a pouch of basmati rice with the last of the mushrooms, chopped smoked frankfurters, some egg bits, onions and peas.

Today for an early lunch (brunch?) I made a low-carb pizza, topped with cheese, pepperoni, mushrooms and tomato. It wasn't up to @Rachox's standards, but it was my first try, so be kind.

For dinner I used up the rest of the bacon, fried up some mushrooms, and did a few small roasties.

Your roasties always make my mouth water!

Ooh the air fryer cheesy egg soufflé thing sounds, and looks good. Could you share the recipe please?

Really getting the hang of these now;
So these are done in a Ninja air fryer, I got a set of cheap silicon bowls - about 4" diameter - wide enough to get two abreast on the lower tray (this is a cylindrical air fryer).
Then - one egg each, just whisk as ususal, some salt and pepper (salt is actually quite important as it lets the egg cook at lower temps) then a handful of grated cheddar, then empty into the silicon.
Couple of rashers of bacon and two high meat-content sausages on the upper deck, and off you go - 12 min in the roast setting (190°C) is just enough time to have a shower, and come down to a perfect breakfast.

For lunch today I had some bacon inside that weird, low-carb "bread". I really don't like it; I'll see if the birds do.

For dinner tonight I had scrambled eggs accompanied by fried mushrooms, frankfurters, onions and peas.

Been away in Wales to meet up with family for a few days - went by train so complex long journeys due to flooding. My main way to deal with this - as train trolleys and station outlets\ cafes are carb central - was to stick mainly to water and black coffee when travelling.
Family meet up was in a Greek restaurant where I chose and enjoyed lamb and salad.
Today
Breakfast kefir then fried some tomatoes in olive oil
Lunch some cheese and seeded crackers followed by peel of a local as
Dinner wild salmon with cauliflower cheese followed by a low carb DGF crimbo crumble.

Lunch was M&S deli filler - smoked salmon and cream cheese on half a l/c roll with salad. DGF Crimbo crumble and extra thick cream.
Dinner: chilli made using Edemame beans in place of kidney beans. Served with greens sauteed in garlic butter.
