Oh dear. I will have to file you next to the person on here who doesn't like cheese!I can't stand aniseed in any shape or form. I should have read the package more closely or at least looked at the picture of an aniseed stalk! I'll stick to my decaff Earl Grey or Green tea I think and try and calm and cleanse in other ways!
When I was a youngster, I used to drink Pernod and blackcurrant poured into a pint of snakebite. I now live in a strange world where Pernod is the healthiest part of that drink lolPernod :***:

Brekkie: Egg and bacon out with a friend. We go to a lovely cafe in Cleethorpes. I order egg n bacon on toast, but they kindly swap the toast for an extra rasher. And the latte was perfect.
Lunch: green smoothie
Dinner: pulled pork, roast med veg, green beans and I'll finish with 4 prunes in double cream, with 2 squares of dark choc. Try it. It's beyond sublime.
I've been slipping into ketosis again today. It is like waking up. Actual energy. Me - energetic! It's amazing. Mr B has been watching me bustle about all day (from his Footie Command Chair) as I have dusted, hoovered, polished and tidied the living room and bits of the computer room. And I'm not talking just a lick and a spit. This is in depth, white glove treatment. Every surface gleaming. The whole air feels clean.
I'm watching myself do this in delighted bemusement.Ketosis is ace.
Not sure how low carb you are being, but you could always use a tortilla wrap as base but cut the middle out like one of those Pizza Express things and fill centre with salad? Almost a pizza.
Hehe I may not like cheese but I lurve pernod!,Oh dear. I will have to file you next to the person on here who doesn't like cheese!
@RosieLKH I am making courgette spaghetti for the first time tomorrow. Any hints on the best way to cook it?Not what I've eaten, but what I'm going to cook in a mo... I'm going to do a few small dishes - my take on English tapas! Our broad beans are ready, but we don't grow many, so we'll have a handful tossed in butter. Carbs & Cals has them at about 2g carbs. We've grown pak choi for the first time this year, so we'll have a few leaves of that, steamed and in soy sauce. I have really enjoyed my courgette spaghetti, so am doing it for husband with a little garlic and bacon. Also, I've been having the aubergine pizza idea i either found on this website or some other low carb recipe place - a thick slice of aubergine, lightly buttered and seasoned, put in a dish with a slice of tomato on top - bake, then before it's finished put grated cheese on top to melt. I am going to try it topped with a tiny round of minced beef today, so it's cross between a burger, a pizza and moussaka.
How about something from this link Sam posted a while ago? He recommended the aubergine pizza.I need inspiration today. Fantasising about pizza

Diagnosed prediabetic Easter 2014. Just left to get on with it, no guidance or help from GP. Every day I'm learning something new.
I fry it from raw in olive oil with a little garlic salt or garlic and seasoning. Yesterday I cooked some bacon bits in the pan first, then added the courgette.@RosieLKH I am making courgette spaghetti for the first time tomorrow. Any hints on the best way to cook it?
Watch out for jars of pesto, which often have cheese in them.This is my favourite (only?) courgette spaghetti recipe...and it's cheese free!

Talking of which, the BIG cheese news is that Sainsburys have reintroduced their vegetarian basic Italian hard cheese after a very long absence. It is like Parmesan but without the rennet. Having some tonight to disguise the fact that I will be eating chickpea stew for the third night running
Yes, the jars usually have real Parmesan in them so I avoid them anyway. The recipe I posted, btw, is for raw courgette spaghetti, but I fry it quickly in the wok to soften it a bit.Watch out for jars of pesto, which often have cheese in them.
