What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

[DeejayR]

A good squirt of hot sauce.

Will Tabasco do?

Will Tabasco do?

Tabasco is quite thin, compared to the other sauces I mentioned. By all means, try it, I'm sure the taste will be great, but you might need more fresh chilli for texture.

Well after yesterday's result of 5.7 HbA1c, I went out to dinner and went mad. Not really. Duck salad, and sea trout main, but I did have a fruit crumble.

Today, B: 2 small slices herring, 2 Nairn's rough oatcakes and cream cheese
L: beef and pinto bean chilli with a mountain of savoy cabbage. I pressure cooked twice the amount of pinto beans I needed (5 minutes) so there's spare left for salads, or making home-made baked beans.
D: will be tuna salad with leftover bits and pieces

There are plenty of references on here if you search and more than one recipe but the principal is the same I think. Enjoy!
PS It isn't bread

Thanks DJ, surprised that the baker didn't know about that "Bread" will have a go at that some time when off ND,

B: bulletproof coffee

L: hummus and coyo (liked it so much yesterday, had to have it again.

D: moussaka, green salad, then rhubarb and strawberries with cream.

(Diced rhubarb and rough chopped Strawbs in a small pan with a dribble of water. Gently simmered til soft. Sweetened with a small amount of erythritol, served warm with double cream. Will definitely do it again - and it's the perfect use for strawberries that are a little past their prime.)

D Will be cauliflower egg salad with 2 poppadoms. Sugar free jelly.

977 calories 26g carbs, 71g fat, 52g protein. Only on my third day (after lurking and trying to get over the fear of fat!) so hope I’m doing OK

May have some cheese too, but sodium level seems high according to myfitnesspal diary.
