Hi Angie :)

I use a small packet of Steak Mince. Put it in a bowl with an egg and some salt and pepper and sort of mash it with a fork until it forms a ball. Divide into portions about the size of a snooker ball. Put a splash of olive oil in a frying pan and when it's nice and hot put the flattened burgers in. I fry a few big mushroom slices in the same pan after I've flipped the burgers, put them on the burgers and then top them off with some Emmental or Gruyere. Bob under the grill until bubbling.
Hope this helps :)
 
Breakfast - Greek yoghurt and rhubarb
Lunch - Cheese, ham and celery (boring)
Dinner - Salmon steak with veggies with a knob of butter on them
Snack - One round Burgen with low sugar peanut butter.

The Greek yoghurt we've just found is a new brand to us. It is only 2% fat but is also the lowest carb Greek we've found at 3.8g / 100 and 73 cals / 100. Brand name is "Total" made by FAGE and claims to have been actually made in Greece. Its a thick one and if it has a downside its hasn't got quite so much a creamy taste as others. I mix it with fruit anyway to make my own yoghurt so doesn't really matter.
 
Breakfast: Nothing, I don't need to eat at breakfast

Lunch: Tesco chicken leg, salad, avacado, sugar free jelly x 3

Dinner: (I was in Hounslow) so I grabbed some salami and packet of biltong from Tescos, and then had a cold pork-chop and some blackberrys and cream when I got home.

I try to have a glucg of MCT Oil before every meal, to boost my ketone production.
