Today's plan:

Cheese omelette and mushrooms

Church bring and share lunch - will be avoiding the high carb goodies (I hope!) - taking meat and salad, strawberries and cream so should be ok even if everything else is high carb.

Hake with edame bean stir fry - courtesy of the little yellow labels in Tesco at 7pm yesterday

Happy Easter
B. My 1 egg omelette with mushroom , tomato, bacon and spinach.
L. Nothing as going to sister's
D. Parma ham, smoked salmon and prawns in a Marie rose sauce. Had 2 forkfuls of linguine as it was done with cream and gruyere.
Main was veal - vitalla tonnata which is a thin escalope done with tuna and also a rolled veal which is stuffed with egg and herbs and cooked with veg chopped very tiny. Loads of roasted veg.
No alcohol as I was driving.
So not too much damage.

Strangely hungry today.

Breakfast - 2 boiled eggs

Lunch - Nando's. 5 plain wings with salad

Mid-afternoon snack - remainder of my sugar free jelly with cream

Dinner - the cold meat and salad I had planned just wasn't going to cut it. Settled for 2 poached eggs, 2 rashers of bacon, 2 Birds Eye burgers (1.5 carbs each) and a small piece of cheese.

Still feeling a bit peckish which isn't right - have eaten more than normal.

Breakfast: Two mackerel fillets fried in butter

Lunch: Probably a couple of Lidl salami sticks - the very small snack size ones

Dinner: an unlabelled Tupperware container from the freezer - I'm hoping it's something like chicken and aubergine curry - whatever it is I'll be having it with cauliflower rice

Mr C reckons there's enough home made pre-cooked meals in the smallest chest freezer to last us six months minimum. I just wish they all had labels on. :meh:
