ALL ABOUT TODAY: 5 February

Was a good day in the kitchen I had a bit of time at home to experiment with some great Low Carb food! ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA...... I tried today to add a bit more carbs to my food.

BREAKFAST was 2 eggs fried in butter with cucumber, tomato and feta cheese. Coffee and cream.

Had another coffee midd morning with a T of coconut oil and cream.

ZUCCHINI FRIES:

I sliced the zucchini thin, brushed with olive oil and sprinkled with garlic powder and barbecue salt. THEN I was supposed to sprinkle a bit of paprika but sprinkled cayenne pepper instead...... It was hot but not bad. Next time I should add paprika ;) I baked it in the oven at 180dC until brown and crisp.



The zucchini crisps was great tasting and crisp. A good low carb snack.


LUNCH was the great SPINACH CHEESE flatbread:

I divided a 450g bag of frozen spinach in two. Defrost the spinach in the microwave and squeezed out all the liquid. Then  mix 1 1/2 cups grated cheese and five eggs into the spinach. I spiced it up a bit of garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper and 1t of Itallian herbs.

Spread it on parchment paper on a baking tray and baked in the oven at 180dC until crisp and brown.





I made a sandwich with the spinach cheese bread, turkey cold meat, lettuce, cucumber, tomato slices and a touch of mayonnaise.



And the test is in the tasting and the smile! It did taste a bit eggy by its own but with a filling it was really delicious. I can't wait to add tuna and mayonnaise to this sandwich some time.

Had a T of peanut butter midd afternoon.

SUPPER will be lovely oven baked chicken with roasted eggplant.

Was a good LOW CARB DAY! I drank more water got my 2T coconut oil in and it was a challenge not to pig out on all the lovely low carb food. Want to give the scale a good KICK ON MONDAY!
