  • daphne that looks wonderful, i may be able to adapt it to low Gi (change the rice)

    Flibsey I can only eat Wholewheat pasta for Low Gi, but the pregnancy doesn't like any pasta at all... Which is limiting my options a lot!

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Our favourite autumn meal is a melange of cubed roasted pumkin or squash (we like butternut), chestnuts (cooked in the same dish) to which we sometimes add streaky bacon, and or blue cheese. We sometimes have this by itself, sometimes as a pasta sauce. so you could add pasta for the family but have a bowlk of the real flavour bit yourself! Its autumn perfection!

    Otherwise bacon with mushrooms is simialrly warming autumnal combination. I'd probably make portabello bacon avocado sandwiches, using grilled portabellos for ''bread'' and topping with yummy garliucy bacony mushrooms warm and cold sliced avocado and have it with celriac salad.

  • I am planning on a meal with Bacon next week (I have 18-20 slices in a pack and i'll use half in the first meal) but I need idea on what to do with the leftovers.

    Big problem is I can't eat pastry or pasta or I would make carbonara or a quiche!

    Any ideas?

    Thank You x


    make a sandwich. just the one though or you won't have enough bacon to go round.
