[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2508158, member: 25851"] Yesterday, for the first time ever, I used some dried marrowfat peas to make mushy peas. Just as an experiment, you understand. Didn't stick to the recipe, of course but added some veg stock and a few vegetables, including some lettuce which needed to be used before it went too soft and some lemon bits and pieces from the lemon I used for a salad the other day. I cooked it beyond mushy to paste-like so that it reminded me of the peas pudding we used to get for school dinner in the 50's (strangely, I was the only one who enjoyed that). Anyway, I used a tablespoon of it as a spread on a slice of wholemeal toast for my breakfast. I really enjoyed it but have no idea how many carbs it would represent as a meal and it didn't stave off the pangs of hunger for long, so I just had a tin of sardines in olive oil to try to plug the gap. BG didn't go up anyway and stayed around the 6 mark. I will need a further meal and am in the process of making some cauliflower and broccoli rice which I will make into some kind of egg fried "rice" dish. Neil couldn't get fresh mint for me the other day when I needed it but came home from the shops today with some - smells lovely. I'll have to find a way to use it before it goes off. [/QUOTE]
