Many years ago in Zimbabwe I ordered a passion fruit juice not anticipating that it would be a tall glass full of the contents of passion fruits so it looked like a glass of frog spawn. You needed to 'eat' it with a spoon.
Today the family took me out for birthday dinner I just went as low carb as I could on the menu fillet steak pepper corn sauce and sautéed potatoes View attachment 24290
A very nice ham and cheese toastie, with a coffee and side salad.
(Out for the day, and there wasn't a lot of places open, but it was a very tasty choice either way)
Just had this for lunch - 89g cold roasted cauliflower (75 cals, 3g carbs), 109g Sainsbury's Garlic & Herb Chicken Breast Slices (136 cals, 2g carbs), 79g Waitrose full fat cottage cheese (84 cals, 3g carbs), a total of 295cals and 8g carbs.

It's the only cheese I'm eating at the moment, and I prefer the full fat version. It can take me 10 days to finish a 300g tub so it's not as if I'm eating a lot of it.
Natural Greek style creamy yoghurt with 9 frozen sour cherries and 10 small blueberries.
Cauliflower and halloumi curry with added extras... butternut squash, chick peas and a tub of red pepper hummus that was reduced to 20p and needed using up, served on a bed of Konjac rice. Small portion because I mad the curry far too hot! Do frozen whole chillies get hotter in the freeser? I only put 3 piddley little ones in a great pan of curry and it is blow your socks off hot!!
Tonight may be belly pork with savoy cabbage and butternut squash and carrot mash..... if I can be bothered to cook or a tub of Feta stuffed peppadew peppers..... or I might have another bowl of this curry now that my taste buds have adjusted to the heat.... it is rather yummy! Needs a few units of insulin for the hummus, chick peas, and tomatoes and onion in it but nothing desperately high carb.

I've moved some photos onto the phone that I use to come on here, so thought I would share some of them. These are homemade lower carb peanut butter cups - high cocoa dark chocolate and the filling is just peanut butter. Very yummy and nowhere near as sweet as Reese's
