Lunch
Crab (well not real crab) salad homemade (yesterday I shred 4 crabsticks)
mixed the salad with chopped celery,watercress, one medium sized tomato,
tablespoon of cream cheese, chopped Walnuts & linseeds and pumpkin seeds
water & cup of tea

snack 1/2 apple with some nuts /seeds a few of each brazils,almonds,macadamia,walnuts,pecans (so all low carb)
I chop the apple before ileave home & put it in small plastic box,
so I can snack on the fruit and nuts during the day (usually in the afternoon when driving)

evening dinner
small portion of battered fish (think it was captain birds eye from freezer) they are quite small
frozen peas & hand-full of frozen sweet potato chips ( I find these don't spike my BS) a glass of squash (sugarfree) with dinner
I try to drink plenty of water but prefer squash obviously always check it’s not low but sugar free

Some orange squashes have sulphur dioxide as a preservative which can catch your throat. Your dinner reminds me of when my aunt had had a kidney removed and the first meal she was offered was steak and kidney pie, needless to say she declined to eat it. I expect your Mum can survive minus a bit of liver.🙂

Perhaps you can answer my question. The Mongolian beef appeared to use 75 ml soy sauce, which seems an awful lot, is that correct or do I need new glasses?

No that's correct. After the long slow cook it reduces down and becomes a rich sauce. It is a really tasty dish
