I am now going to attempt to make oopsies.
Trouble with doing LC just for myself is i cant be bothered to cook anything that takes much effort, its usually quick grill or fry or salad stuff which is why i probably get bored.

Know what you mean. I live alone so everything I cook is just for me. It's worth making the effort (and it IS an effort) to make oopsies, though. They keep, can be frozen, I believe and are so useful. If you like them do a big batch next time so you dont have to be mithered as often

Always feel like I can't be bothered with the recipes that have split eggs and folding in, but once it's done (and takes less time, more practise) it's always been worth it

Does anyone have any ideas for a gravy substitute or I fear for Sunday lunch, or is that pushing low carb too far

Here are some thoughts and suggestions about gravy from this thread

Oh, it's dead easy - you can use any cool liquid, so I've used fruit tea but you could use sugarfree squash:

- Mix up one pint of your cold liquid (if making tea, boil first and then leave to cool)
- Add one sachet of Vege-Gel (from the baking aisle at Tesco) and whisk until dissolved
- Over a hob, bring the liquid to boiling point
- Pour into molds / bowls etc and immediately refridgerate. Personally, I put the molds in the freezer beforehand just to ensure instant cooling.

An hour later, the jelly is solid and ready to eat You can experiment with any flavours you like, and any shapes! And even vodka jellies would be low-carb, though of course alcoholic.

Have you tried this with mint tea? Thinking minty voddy jelly Well, I would:D

Let us know if you did the cherry cinnamon one. That sounds v nice

You're on the list again!

Is there any carbs in the vege-gel and is it Induction friendly? I really like the idea of peppermint tea jelly :j

I don't know details but reckon carb count wouldn't be much as it'l be a little package

If you try the mint tea version do let us know, thinking of doin that miself

Thanks Mercy for the links and badgerlady for the jellies, will def be trying them. Have never liked jelly, didnt see the point of it really but find it really refreshing now.

Made my oopsies, they came out brill but the mix was a bit runny as i was afraid to overbeat the eggs, put two on tray and had brainwave to put four in my yorkshire pud pan.. result, they are the best cos they are thicker and just the right size for a burger the ones on tray spread (my pan makes the larger puds) would post a pic as they look fab but i cant get it to paste into the thread, any ideas
