Lamb is one meat I have never really eaten much of, but since I have just started Atkins, I will definitely be giving this a go. Cheers.

Very helpful, cheers. Egg Foo Yung is looking like a definite possibility!

I am currently enjoying a plate of greasy pan fried bacon and scrambled eggs with a big dollop of full fat mayo on it. It feels so wrong, but yet tastes so right! Sometimes comes with optional lettuce, but not today!

Great idea! There are quite a few though, are they all roughly the same?

Omelette is my usual order, but it comes with a big bag of Chinese Chips included in the price, so I will be giving those away before the devil on my shoulder talks me into it! Any suggestions for accompanyments? There are many veg but unfortunately most come in a sugary sauce, so perhaps...

Thanks for the mayo tip. I would have never guessed that the full fat mayo would be better on this diet than the supposed low fat dieting mayo. Crazy! In other news, I couldn't find the Atkins book in Tesco, Asda or Sainsburys. I guess I will have to try WHSmith. Oh, and I just got the...
