I've been dehydrating clementines studded with cloves, to use as pomanders, all day today. The house and the air fryer smell very festive! Once dry I will wrap each of them with a ribbon, make a loop and add in a piece of cinnamon stick. Love the build up to Christmas. Need to bake some more festive low carb goodies in a few days.
 
B- scrambled eggs on L/c marmite toast.
L- Prawn salad with chilli sauerkraut in lettuce boats. V messy to eat but tasty. L/c mince pie and clotted cream.
D- Gourmet Burger Kitchen bacon cheeseburger with salad followed by L/c lemon drizzle cake. The cake is from https://ketokitchenlytham.co.uk I’d highly recommend but their cakes do contain xylitol so care needed around pets.

Back late last night as spent the day with a friend in Stratford Upon Avon, she’s type 2 too. I cooked dinner as she wanted to sample my LC kedgeree. So days food was:
Breakfast: my usual low carb coconut ‘porridge’ with strawberries washed down with a black coffee.
Late morning: black coffee and a carb killa bar.
Skipped lunch.
Mid afternoon: black coffee and shock protein bar.
Dinner: kedgeree made with cauliflower rice.

B- 2 boiled eggs mashed with butter.
L- DietDoctor recipe Keto Reuben skillet. An odd but tasty and very filling mix of corned beef, sauerkraut, mustard and cheese. ( reminded me of the corned beef cheesy thingy that was popular in this thread some years back)
D- Pheasant curry then a DGF Christmas pud ( which had just been delivered) warm with clotted cream.

Out for two meals today so feeling very full tonight!
Breakfast: my usual low carb coconut ‘porridge’ with strawberries washed down with a black coffee.
Lunch out with friends: avocado salad with Italian cheese (I think it was mozarella)
Dinner out with daughter and her fiancé at a Chinese: chicken and cashew nuts in yellow bean sauce with stir fried beansprouts. We were at a restaurant we hadn’t been to so on reflection I’d just have the chicken dish without the beansprouts as that would have been plenty!
Happy with my blood sugars, a rapid rise to above what I’d normally like to see but an equally rapid fall back afterwards.

Only black coffee until around 3pm when I had a slice of deli frittata ( no potato in this one so it doesn’t spike my BG)
Dinner was sea bass. 1/2 price from Waitrose wet fish counter. Cooked in the bag with butter and lemon. Baked aubergine, mushrooms and sprouts with it. DGF salted caramel blondie to follow.
