Nothing more special on the scale just standing....... But I have excellent news. My husband is in SA for a few weeks and bought me the book: Real Meal Revolution from Tim Noakes as a gift. I'm smiling all the way. Can't wait to lay my hands on it.
BREAKFAST was two egg omelette with a bit of white cheese and tomato slices. Coffee and cream.
I think I had way too much coffee today ;)
Before I ran over to my neighbor for an event I had a hand palm filled with almonds. I thought what ever I get to eat the nuts could curb my hunger, and it turned out to be a great help.
LUNCH was a visit to my neighbor... she had a bunch of ladies over for a visit. I took a cake a very good cultural thing here to do. It turned out the only something there to eat was kisir (a bulgur salad) wrapped in lettuce leafs. I tried to take as least as I can not to offend anyone. Had a good glass of Turkish tea.
SUPPER was a welcomed event. I was starving by then....... I made chicken soup for my family and broccoli cheese soup for myself. I had a bowl of the chicken soup before I added the noodles. I also had a good serving of the broccoli cheese soup. Was good and filling. Just what the LOW CARB DOCTOR ORDERED ;)
My teenage daughter says it is the best soup she has ever eaten. Wow!
Here is the BROCCOLI CHEESE SOUP recipe:
1. Fry onion in butter add raw broccoli florets to this and cook a bit.
2. Add water to the pot to make the soup.
3. Add black pepper, chicken stock cubes and a few crushed cloves of garlic.
4 Boil until broccoli is soft. Mash with a masher and stir in 2T of cream and one cup of cheese.
5. I added 2T of lemon to give it a good kick.
6. Be warned one bowl is not enough! ;)
Some days just turn out so crazy and then trying to live a Low Carb Lifestyle...... I barely get to sit down to think ;)
