Food, carbs, sugar and fat?

aubergenes are another I’m never sure of, let’s face it we could just fry everything LoL. Can someone tell me what celeriac tastes like?

It's tastes like celery - it's the same plant as celery, but grown for it's bulbous root.

Kale - I like kale crisps. I've never made them with ras el hanout, but I use chilli powder, salt and ground pepper on mine.

Aubergine - nice in curries and as Aubergine parmigiana. They don't have masses of flavour by themselves, but soak up the flavour of the sauce.

I used to slice the courgettes and pan fry them in a bit of olive oil with a mix of dried herbs, it's nice as a side. My mom makes a soup with boiled courgettes, a small potato (but you can skip that for low carb) and a couple cheese triangles, like Dairylea or Laughing Cow. Very simple but we like it.
Also, a great way to sneak more veg in a Bolognese sauce, I usually cut courgettes in tiny cubes and add them, or you could grate them if you prefer that texture.

Yes, about once a month I have a small baked potato with butter and cheese

aubergines are good in moussaka, or curries.
I love ratatouille (aubergine, courgette, pepper, onions) but OH hates it even though he likes all those ingredients individually or any three out of four.
Aubergine slippers are nice. https://mutti-parma.com/en/recipes/papoutsakia/

oh I absolutely love ratatouille, and make it often, lov it cold or warmed. I have never had a taste for highly spiced food so tend never to have curries etc.

Thought they were going to be actual slippers shaped like aubergines then, for aubergine lovers.

I was told when first diagnosed that a good breakfast for me was porridge, fast forward a couple of years and it is not. However, I shall continue to have it, either at breakfast or evn at lunch depending on my notion.

I discovered recently that I was not prepared when ordering my groceries, to spend f9rever looking the nutritional contents for carbs because frankly it mant doing so took ages and greatly annoyed me. I also have rolls, bread and potatoes as and when I feel like it, bcause I work on the principle that by doing so it is not something I have every day, if it was that would throw up problems of course.
