Review Left Me Feeling Depressed!

[Lisa65]

I sometimes have slices of cold meat with coleslaw on it and rolled up maybe with a couple of cherry tomatoes and some cucumber. I love leftover room temperature curry for breakfast.

What is this "leftover curry" of which you speak

I would think it is just the left overs from a curry you have had the night before, it can often taste even better the next day.
Not uncommon in Asian household I believe, we were served curry for breakfast on an Emirates flight.

Unfortunately I don't like avocados and I can't stand olives!
I do have a soup maker so in winter I have homemade soups for dinner but don't like having something hot in summer - yes I'm odd!
I'll take a look at the diet link though, thank you

I often have cold soups in Summer - same content, just not hot. If you’ve got a soup maker (my wife is mine!). We basically bung a selection of veg into a pot with some stock and seasoning and then boil. Leave to get cold, maybe put the dish in your fridge. I’m sure you can find some delicious recipes online. Combine the soup with cheese on thin biscuits or cold meats, and it makes for a delicious lunch. Finish it off with yogurt + fruit and you’ll find you have quite enough to eat.

I love curry, and there are never any leftovers in our house!

Aldi sell protein pots in the yogurt section that aren't actually yogurt, it's a fruit flavoured soft cheese. Just under 10g of carbs in a 200g pot, very filling because high protein. I don't get any sourness from them at all, it almost feels like cheesecake. Brooklea protein pot, raspberry, strawberry or peach and passion fruit, 75p.

I wouldn't trust things like that, given that they can be high in sugars to give them a 'nice' taste.

I was bitten many, many years ago by a dietician telling me that there was nothing wrong with eating Muller Lights. I decided to have a look at the contents myself and was incredibly shocked at the carb / sugar contents of them!

Sugars are 2.3g per 100g.

The Aldi protein pots are 2.3g of sugar per 100g ☺️ never been a fan of Muller yogurts. The Aldi ones are a vaguely fruity flavoured soft cheese mixed with yogurt so they have a really thick, could stand a spoon up in it, texture. Works for us.

Sorry, just deleted my post because I realised on rereading you were talking bout the Protein pots, not Muller.

I want to find an breakfast that I can alternate with egg and cheddar omlette

I have scrambled eggs with mushrooms, tomatoes and spinach (with a tiny splash of balsamic vinegar because it stops my craving for ketchup!) I cook the mushrooms, tomatoes and spinach at the weekend and then reheat it in the mornings during the week. That way I just have to cook the eggs which I do on the hob but could be done in the microwave.

You do have to look at the labels carefully as there can be a big difference but the protein pots are both low carb and low fat and even the mousses are OK. I do find half a pot is plenty sufficient.

If the sugars were high, this would be included in the carb content.
Typically, sugars are replaced by artificial sweeteners nowadays.

My gripe with the protein pots is that they appear to be highly processed. I tried the Lidl chocolate one and wasn't overly impressed and wouldn't buy one again. I would rather make a low carb chocolate microwave mug cake with a dollop of peanut butter in the centre if I need a sweet treat.
