[Susikav]

Could not have breakfast until 11.30am due to not being able to eat for medical reasons, but I made up for it as follows:

A very cheeky digestive biscuit because I went a bit low, followed by a crustless quiche and some houmous with pepper sticks

Late lunch: Prawn cocktail salad with avocado and olive oil dressing, 2 squares 90% dark chocolate

Tea: Another crustless quiche with half a round of goats cheese melted on top - yum, salad and avocado

Supper: A bit more 90% chocolate perhaps.......

Drinks: Loads and loads of water

What a good idea to put the goat's cheese on the top and melt it!! I shall do that today - I have a little Welsh cheese sitting looking at me... Thank you Tweetypie... and, by coincidence, I am also having prawn cocktail, with bacon fat home-made mayo, for supper... Salmon and asparagus for lunch.... eggs and spinach for breakfast... as long as nothing goes awry of course, as it seems to do so easily in my life... Have a lovely day chaps....

 

[Susikav]

Thanks Tweety! Being American, you would not believe how many times I have had to Google words that I read on this site. I couldn't find coyo, though.

Last week, I finally discovered that courgette is zucchini.

Hi vintage utopia... we have a similar problem here - Many years ago I had to research cilantro - before computers... coriander of course... You could make your own coyo I reckon - I make goat's cheese, so no reason why you couldn't... you would need to research the probiotics you'd need I suppose... hmmm... I might try it... food for thought..

 

[Susikav]

Hi Tweetypie! Long time no see!

These are coyos.

I've bought coconut milk and cream this week, to try and make my own coconut yog.
But now I'm having doubts... Will keep you all informed.

Good morning Brunneria... I have just posted that very thing!! I did it before I finished reading the posts... I take Symprove for ulcerative colitis, very successfully thank goodness, and it is pure bacteria basically... when I make my goat's cheese with UHT milk, which is often all I can get my hands on in the Middle East - which is full of goats and sheep! - I add the Sypmprove and it eventually curdles - not as fast, I have to say, but I know it will be live at the end of the day!! And I put rock salt and garlic through it... lush...

 

[Susikav]

B: Greek yoghurt full fat with 10 blueberries, cinnamon, vanilla and flaked almonds.
11: coffee and 10g 85%
D: spinach and Parmesan tortilla, salad of romaine, black olives, and a couple of baby tomatoes, in vinaigrette.
S: after yoga class, small bowl of yellow split pea soup with herbs, one mini quichelet. Unsweetened coffee pecan ice-cream

Good morning lizdeluz... what a good word for little quiches... of course, quichlet!!
I know you don't like sweeteners per se, but Stevia, and its derivitives, is brilliant... Truvia even lets your little cakes go brown... it is very natural, coming from leaves, and no aftertaste for me... I don't often indulge in sweet stuff, but pop it into my hot chocolate along with almond butter, butter, coconut oil, a dash of cream and pure cacao.... lush... I do admire your ability to go 'sugar' free though...

Am trying to up my calorie intake a bit. It was a great food day though, very enjoyable!
By the way, the sweet potatoes were very small
