Keep up, slow coach. I'm eating mine already! :hungry: Hehe

I put a wee edit in the recipe post. Just use all almond flour.

I didn't have enough butter so used half butter/half coconut oil. Nom.
 
I'm still thinking.... Just checking if I have stuff to make the almond biscuits, to go with cheese tomorrow...;)
 
Breakfast - eggs on one slice of wholemeal toast, (last of the) rhubarb and cream.

Lunch - on holiday, after a one hour walk, had a very nice homemade 8 oz beef burger, only had some of the chips and half the bun. Didn't test before, but 8.2 2 hours later, not bad but not something to repeat often. It was nice though. Another two hours later, before eating again, 6.6.

Dinner - avocado vinaigrette, 'tapas' of chorizo, houmous, salmon pate, tomato, olives and salad. 6.4 at +2.
 
I prefer not to admit it, suffice it to say my readings were:

before 5.3
+1 hour 9,4
+2 hours 10.5
+2.5 hours 9.3
+3 hours 7.8

OK ..... I had some of my hubby's home made steak, kidney and diced potato pie - thin top shortcrust only, but hells bells it was delicious! My own fault, I had seconds! Not to be repeated for a while. :(

Very nice! What is low carb rye bread? Sounds like it could be a winner!
 
I bring it back from Finland. Over there the low carb movement has brought products like low carb breads and yogurt into normal shops. It is a bit like a sandwich thin made from a dark continental rye bread.
 
Confessional. I feel ashamed of myself now....

Bacon sarnie with white bread

Half cup of homemade soup

Four small slices of pizza.....

Why did I do it?
