I had chicken korma with green beans and mango chutney to dip the beans in. Was from a delivery service which is why it’s so saucy, there was chicken in there too!

I had fish tacos for tea and carrot tarte tartin for dinner.
I’m not good at traditional Sunday lunch but still love my food.

I haven't had dinner (evening meal) yet and may not have any or may have a midnight feast.

I had early afternoon tea.... a real deviation from my usual way of eating... and I feel rather resentful about it, but we were guests.... Of course, I don't feel resentful towards our lovely hosts as they were very kind but just towards my diabetes I think.
I had half a cheese scone with butter, half a white bun with roast pork and a small sausage roll. It cost me 4.5 units of insulin for that piddly bit of food. I declined any cakes or biscuits and washed it down with probably the worst cup of tea I have ever had, so not an enjoyable meal and I was craving carbs again 2 hours later, so ate some cheese (Gorgonzola Picante) when I got home and waited for the craving to subside. I used to absolutely love cheese scones and haven't had any for ages but it was such an anticlimax. My tastes have obviously changed but I really just feel like I was short changed needing all that insulin for just 3 small items of food when I could have a plate full of tasty veggies or salad for just 1 or 2 units.
I may have a salad later with some nice cheese coleslaw but horses and chucks are to put to bed first.

Well, I did have a midnight feast....
Fried potatoes (boiled new potatoes in their skins which needed using up so got chucked in the pan) with mushrooms, aubergine, 2 fried eggs and half a large head of broccoli microwaved and then served hot with sour cream and chive dip. Feel so much better for eating some green stuff and far happier spending my insulin on a couple of new potatoes rather than all that white flour in the baked goods at the buffet tea earlier.

@Inka
Love the idea of butternut squash curry. My partner has just bought me some butternut squashes as they were reduced to 20p each when he was in the supermarket tonight so I will have to have a go at making that. I was thinking I would make a spicy soup with them but really fancy trying it in curry instead or maybe as well.... I don't think he said how many he got but it was certainly plural!
Some guys buy their partner's flowers, mine buys me out of date veggies. 🙄 ... Bless him!

We had an adapted version of the vegan Gumbo with basmati rice from one of our Bosh books. any old veg, and a really good flavour (with optional extra tobasco!). I'm not vegan or veggie, but looking largely vegan majorly cuts down on the number of meals that need to be cooked!

You might enjoy this long-running thread which has lots of food ideas from people using a wide variety of approaches to diet. 🙂

What did you eat yesterday?

It can be helpful sometimes to know what sort of things people are eating, as it might give some ideas for a more varied diet. So, I'll start off with what I ate yesterday: Breakfast - 1 slice buttered Burgen toast (my breakfast every day, I don't like to run with too much in my stomach)...
