What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

Breakfast small portion of no grains granola with extra nuts, seeds and a few garden berries with kefir
Lunch made a slaw for next few days using chopped red cabbage, celery and radishes with a dressing of lemon juice and organic olive oil. Served a portion with smoked trout for lunch followed by the peel of a local Worcestershire Apple and a handful of mixed nuts.

Morning all. Todays menu in no particular order. 2 hard boiled eggs with 2 Ryvitas. My other piece of fresh salmon. It's big enough to have on its own as a complete meal because I'm trying to eat smaller meals.

Crispbreads like Ryvita are not really that much better than bread or toast @RosemaryJackson. The overall carb content may be a little lower but they're still composed of cereal, in other words carbohydrate.

How about a couple of eggs, cooked any way you like them, with mushrooms and a tomato instead? Or accompanied by green, above ground vegetable(s) that you enjoy?

I hope you were able to savour every mouthful of your fresh Pacific salmon undisturbed. What a treat!

Your meals always incorporate lots of interesting contrasting flavours and textures @shelley262.

Have you come across William Crump apples in your neck of the woods? It's a crisp Worcester apple variety with a colourful peel.
