Hi your porridge do you make it with milk or water. It seems to spike my levels 15+B- coffee, DD porridge with wild blueberries, 1 slice LC bread with butter
L- leftover chicken stir fry
D- hotdog on LC bun, sauerkraut, 2 pieces pickled beets (yum), 6 kalamata olives, home made BP coconut chocolate
Forgot about the two glasses of red wine to compensate for lousy day.

At long last managed a successful lemon drizzle cake with only 1.9 g carbs per generous slice. Found recipe on www.everydaysugarfree.co.uk
You’ll need to search for lemon drizzle cake. Only adaptations made to the recipe is the addition of a few drops of stevia liquid to the erythritol to make a little sweeter tasting for the rest of family. I also baked for 50mins before adding the lemon juice which I did in increments 3 x five mins back in oven every time and it really is best ever tastes just like ordinary lemon drizzle and Mr G agreed with me.

Notice this site also has a low carb custard - doable in slow cooker and I fancy giving this a go would be like your flan @ziggy but without caramel but would need to swap milk for cream. Maybe later in the week!
Had planned one large meal today as fasting bg a bit higher than normal and wasn’t hungry this morning - but succumbed mid afternoon to warm lemon cake and cream!
Dinner roast belly pork, cauli cheese and braised celery followed by lemon and lime low carb mousse
Gin and soda planned for this evening.
I’ve had three previous goes at a lemon cake with different recipes and this is the first that really worked.Oh now this is going to be next weekends treat. In my previous life as a non diabetic I absolute loved lemon drizzle cake! Thank you so much for the link
@shelley262 your cake looks wonderful, lemon drizzle was always a favourite of mine and I didn’t think I’d ever have it again. Very happy!
Breakfast: smoked salmon and scrambled eggs
Coffee with cream x2
Lunch: a toasted Oopsie with cream cheese and hot smoked salmon.
Chocolate chia pudding
afterwards.
Dinner: Baked salmon with hollandaise sauce and asparagus cooked in coconut oil.
Raspberries and cream afterwards.
Just realised, writing this that Ive had salmon for every meal today - should be really brainy now!
It's called porridge but that using the term loosely. It's more like a warm custard. Here's the recipeHi your porridge do you make it with milk or water. It seems to spike my levels 15+

Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy it (and I have cooked it longer). It's just not oatmeal. I've even tried the other recipe with chia seeds, but alas, it's not porridge either.View attachment 26138
I make this every morning. Sounds like you need to cook it a bit longer if you want a more ‘porridgy’ consistency, as initially it goes quite liquid as the butter and coconut cream melt, but cook it very gently for longer, stirring all the time and as the egg sets it becomes more porridge like.

That's the first thing I've seen in a few days that I'd like to eat assuming I can work up the energy to make it. I'd add lemon cream cheese and yoghurt icing to it. Very simpleView attachment 26136
