I'm new to this, so really am pretty clueless! I would like to give low carb a go and see how it works for me; I just struggle putting meals together!
Sounds perfect to me...Hi @Susikav, im ok if i only have a few peas, sweetcorn and carrots occassionally - not sure how many so might need to count them next time. My cauliflower hash brown is just cauli rice microwaved, add a beaten egg, mix, form into a hash brown shape and shallow fry in butter - not a potato in sight!
HiLooks easy enough although I haven't got a food mixer, I've got a hand mixer stick thing, would that do it? And would it work without the cheese?
You should be able to find all the recipes you need on the Low Carb Recipe thread... there's some wonderful stuff in there... aren't breakfast balls pork mince and stuff? I'd be interested to see the recipe again too... completely forgotten it...Hi @Mrsass, trying to find the recipe but no luck so far. Its basically a meatball. The original recipe was I think was a mix of pork and beef and contained cheese. I dont like cheese so mine is just beef mince, onion, pepper and an egg to bind. Make into small balls, oven cook, cool and freeze. Handy for a dose of protein and fat with no carbs. Not sure who posted originally, might have been @Brunneria who may be able to tell you where the recipe link is
Hi - you shouldn't need a processor, or even a blender - it should be easy enough with a wooden spoon..Looks easy enough although I haven't got a food mixer, I've got a hand mixer stick thing, would that do it? And would it work without the cheese?
Hello MsButtercup.... welcome - some would say to the madhouseI'm new to this, so really am pretty clueless! I would like to give low carb a go and see how it works for me; I just struggle putting meals together!
Breakfast: porridge with big spoonful of cashew butter stirred in.....mmm
Brilliant! Thanks for the tip...Early breakfast: a boiled egg
Brunch: out at a cafe - cheese and onion omelette, mushrooms on the side, bit of coleslaw and salad.
Snack: cashews, peanuts and almonds.
Dinner: courgette and swede spaghetti with red pesto, tuna, spring onion and cheddar. Courgette technique: put through veg twister and then baked in a low temp oven with a light smattering of salt, for about 20 mins while I twisted and wok-cooked the swede. Then I added the courgette to the wok and mixed in the rest I the ingredients for the time it took for the cheese to melt. Seemed to prevent mushy-ness, also I didn't add a liquids sauce.

Tonight I'm going to a drinks party so all bets are off.
We will all be thinking of you both... such a hard time to go through, but you seem so strong and happy - you obviously give each other nourishment...B 3 sausages & 1 slice liflive toasted with butter (kids ate all my bacon!)
L som tam, stupidly ate a packet of salt n vinegar hula hoops, small piece of cheese (9.2 post, that'll teach me)
D 2 pieces of chicken in masaman curry, no potatoes though, whole young coconut (will be a staple this week as I bought 4) strawberries, raspberries & cream maybe some more cheese later.
