Love this thread! Seed crackers, courgetti, cauliflower rice, peanut butter, kale chips, almond butter, 93% dark chocolate, berries and much more.
 
Aldi spelt crackers. Only 2.3g carb each. Lovely with cheese.
 
Brussels sprouts baked with shallots, garlic, olive oil n a wee bit water. You can also do parsnips and carrots. Mmm

Sounds good Carolg. I like olive oil & Garlic. What time did you say tea was ? :D
 
Been to Edinburgh meeting an old friend haven't seen for about 15 years. Had pizza and 1/2bottle of wine. On bus for 1 3/4 hours so don't think sprouts will be on menu tonight, maybe more zzzz. Another time I think
 
Great info again – I’d pretty much given up on a low carb cracker.

Thanks Mark P. Aldi on the way home tonight – I want to try some of the spelt crackers.

New Journey -Seed crackers? Any brand names for the terminally lazy – or are the low carb ones a DIY thing?

Thanks

I make mine but also buy these, have to have them ordered especially from my local health food shop or on line. Perfect for when I work away.

Is your DIY recepie available on this forum? Is it idiot proof?

Do you have a link or image of these? Couldn't find them at Aldi and Google has let me down....
Can't find a link. Been in Aldi yesterday & they were all gone. possibly a Xmas thing.:(
 
Aldi often have products that are only available for a few weeks.

Indeed - it's often possible to get the item after Aldi have finished selling/promoting it. I've done this a few times with larger items just by asking for it.

Great! Let me know what you think of them.
As for home made I am experimenting and yet to have made anything I could pass on. But optimistic and will share my recipe when I am happy with it.
 
Ribs anyone?
 
Ribs depend on how you cook them - typically most dry rubs call for brown sugar for caramelisation and the sauces are very sweet.
