What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

Coffee and cream
Coffee and unsweetened almond milk
Cheese tomato
Milk Lolly
Smoked salmon
 
B- 2 fried eggs on a slice of protein bread.
Made a couple of bakes with my new Panda flour. I agree @shelley262 it’s very easy to work with. Lemon and blueberry muffins and tahini bread ( very happy to see a recipe for this as I’ve had a jar in the cupboard for ages).
Lunch was a slice of the tahini bread with some strong cheddar and chilli sauerkraut, followed by 1/2 of one of the muffins. Both were good.
D- a DietDoctor favourite: Asian cabbage stir fry. The sesame oil and wasabi mayo really lift this meal out of the ordinary. The other half muffin afterwards.

Inspired by the Great British Bake Off and the school bake theme this week I remembered jam tray bakes with affection so experimented with a diabetes friendly low carb one.I made a 'jam' by cooking and softening some frozen raspberries with lemon juice and using it once cooled under my tray bake sponge.

I was focused on my first bake using my new Ninja Foodie air fryer and forgot but still good and lack of fat made up by serving with extra thick cream!

Tomorrow I have plans to make the Panda Golden loaf which uses egg whites so am thinking of making low carb custard with the yolks to produce the real back to school experience - jam sponge and custard.
Breakfast kefir then poached eggs on toast
Lunch hummus and celery followed by hm LC chocolate brownie
Dinner hm chicken curry with fresh chopped coriander followed by a piece of my hm LC school 'jam' bake warmed with extra thick cream.

More baking today used my new air fryer to bake a golden panda loaf worked really well. Baked well and sliced thinly when cooled to freeze for use over next few weeks.

Uses five egg whites so with yolks to use I also made Katie Caldesi's custard which I then put into a kilner jar and popped in fridge to use over next few days

Wow! I don’t think many of us type 2s could drink ‘full fat’! I for one would get a huge spike! In fact I did when a pub gave me ‘full fat’ by mistake! See screen shot I took of my Libre graph!
