Yup, it does not sound like a whole heap of food but portion control is something I am working on..... reducingHello. Today's food
B. Raspberries with Greek style yoghurt
L. Piece of Camambert and piece of Cornish cheddar
T. Egg mayonnaise, green basil pesto, Brussels pate and a slice of Sukrin bread.
Quantity wise I have had very little so if I am hungry later I will have some more raspberries with yoghurt.
Love those cream cheese clouds. Basically 112g Full fat cream cheese, 60g unsalted softened butter, (my interpretation of US cups in a recipe I found, but can’t remember where) sweetener & vanilla extract to taste. Whisk it all up then drop spoonfuls on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Stick in the freezer for an hour or two. Eat frozen or let them soften a bit in the fridge before consuming. Essentially a fat bomb. I got 11 out of the batch, so each had Fat 8g, Carbs 1g, Protein 1g. ( worked it out on myfitnesspal) I made them bigger last time and only ate one at a time. This time I often have 2!What are cream cheese clouds? Sound lovely!
The almond fairy cake I make is the one I always used to make (for the last 30+ years) but using ground almonds and baking powder instead of self raising flour, and stevia/erythritol. The only ‘old’ recipe that has converted easily. I used to make a batch of 14 with the ‘old’ recipe, but substituting the flour as I mentioned, I got 11. They come out quite small as they do not rise so much and I’ve found they like silicon cups rather than paper cases (although these work too)@Christinerm
Also liking sound of almond fairy cake (fat bomb).
Just googled and it looks like I will be busy on Pinterest

Almond fairy cakes:
100g butter, softened
2 eggs
100g ground almonds
½ tsp baking powder
sweetener equivalent to 100g sugar (I used 25g stevia/erythritol blend)
Beat sweetener and eggs till smooth and fluffy, beat in eggs. Stir in the rest. Spoon into baking cases. Bake at 180C fan oven for 15 mins.
For each of 11 - 13g fat, 1g Carb, 3g protein
@IncyWincy . Ooh your concoction with Passata sounds really tasty.
