What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

Hi the recipe can be found on the diet doctor website, it is very quick and easy to make and I enjoy it, @Rachox has this for her breakfast most days so hopefully she will see your post and provide more info..

I have it everyday without fail! So much so I go into panic mode if I’m running low of any of the ingredients!
 
Breakfast: my usual low carb coconut ‘porridge’ with strawberries and cream (2 tsp) washed down with a black coffee.
Lunch: left over fathead pizza from last night with cauli and broccoli salad with Caesar sauce followed by Greek yoghurt and blueberries.
Mid afternoon: Hartleys 10cal jelly and black coffee.
Dinner: butternut squashetti bolognese with a sprinkling of grated extra mature cheddar followed by strawberries and cream and 1 square of Tesco 85% chocolate.
 

I think your crisps are going to become a new classic on this thread @Brunneria. They sound great. I’m going to do a few now
 

Aaah ok- will read around on this
 
I like the sound of your salami crisps, I often use salami or chorizo and bake them in the oven as I often fancy something crunchy, I will give your method a try.
@jayney27 How long do you put in oven for and what temp? If have oven on I could drop a tray in plus do they stay crispy for long?
 

3.8g sounds awesome! I will be popping into Waitrose as I love bread but have been avoiding it.. just to reduce the carbs.

I LOVE this thread/topic. Can’t wait for my next food shop.

p.s have no idea how to quote more than one person at once in the same message. So apologies for the constant posts.
 

Great idea, sounds fab! Will have to wait 48 hours to give it a try, though.
 
I love the livlife from Waitrose and my nearest one is a large store but have heard others say it’s often not in stock in smaller branches so hope yours has it. I buy several and split in bags in freezer. I make it into garlic bread and fry in coconut oil too or toast. HOpe you enjoy it
 

Brunneria - DO you have one of those smart buttons for auto-ordering your coffee substitute?
 
A couple?

Just a couple???

Wimp.

Hahahaha

Thing is I only had 1 sheet of kitchen roll left, and the salami is what my daughter’s bought for her lunch tomorrow - she wont be best pleased to find I pinched a couple of slices.

If I’d made 8 I’d definitely have eaten 8!
 
If you mean the Subscribe and Save option that comes with Amazon Prime, the guilty as charged, Ma’am.

Blimey - In my mind those buttons are akin to the red buttons on Britain's Got Talent, although I'm assuming no claxon from yours!
 

Thank you for the heads up. Mine nearest Waitrose is a big store
 
Adonis bars have long date and presume can be taken on holiday? Not sure about date on brownies but how could you resist a cake warm out of the oven! Enjoy whatever you choose

Where is the best place to buy Adonis bars? And what is this low carb lemon cake recipe that I am missing out on? *drool*

Hi Adonis bars only on amazon or direct from Adonis they are delicious but a bit pricey good for train journeys or emergency snacks in your bag!
For lemon drizzle see

Only changes I made was cook initially for 50 mins and then add the lemon juice in thirds with 5 mins back in oven each time so takes 65 mins - my family love it.

Hi,
I use the type of baking tin that you would use for making small fairy cakes, I line each cup with a slice or slices of salami or chorizo, depends on the size of the slice, sometimes I add grated cheese, I pre heat the oven, my oven is a fan oven, I set it around 150 to 170 and they usually take about 10 minutes. I pop them onto kitchen roll once done to absorb the excess oil and once cool they are crispy, they do soften a little bit by the next day but are still nice. The microwave method described by @Brunneria seems like it might get a quicker and crispier result so I’m going to have a go using her method.
 
Thank you
 
Bread was the food item I missed and it took a while to find this one, it’s the lowest I have found that still tastes like bread, my partner eats it without complaining so it must be good it’s a dark bread that is seeded LivLife Seriously Seeded, toasts well and tends to have a good shelf life. I generally split mine into portions and freeze so I don’t waste any.
