On saturday night for tea i had quorn pieces woked in a little extra virgin olive oil, and a mixed salad with everything in... delicious. For anyone who hasn't tried quorn its delicious and very low fat if you are trying to lose weight, it tastes a bit like chicken... does'nt everything !!!!

Sunday i had roast chicken.. green beans, brocolli and white cabbage, gravy. No potatoes, im still low carbing. :D
 
mmmmmmmm roast chicken and veg 🙂 but its not the same without the roast potatoes!!!!! and the gravy has to be super thick (spoons have to stand up in the stuff in our house).

well for tonights tea it is that old liverpool fave..................................scouse mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm with a nice thick crusty loaf to dip and loads of brown sauce and pepper :D :D :D

I use quorn when I'm trying to loose weight, I have some mince in my freezer to make a bolognaise type thing.
 
i love the quorn chicken style pieces for making curries etc with. they are very nice and do taste sort of like chicken lol
 
Had quorn with salad again... im addicted!!!! im on my 2nd week of low carbing and have found it really easy.... BUT ive just eaten a huge slice of birthday cake... it was lovely, and worth the extra insulin :D and its my b-day next week and ive got to have a slice of cake on my b-day... then i'll be good, the low carbing has brought my levels right down to normal levels so it's worth it.
P.s I hope your scouse was nice mike.
