B- 2 cinnamon goji berry muffins & vanilla quark icing
L- omelette with chopped up ham (2 eggs)
D- chicken & BBQ sauce, 2 scones & jam
S- muffin

having a PP today as would need to swap at end of week anyway as going out to dinner saturday with hubbys work collegues... not looking forward to that as its in an itallians and ive been sent the menu and there is very little thats dukan friendly lashings of oil on everything grrrr

It is always harder when cooking for family.
I was "forced" to taste corn muffins,brownie + fudge and traditional pancake.... last year.

Nothing a few PP days won't fix..

Have a great Monday.

Oh Ellie blimmin scones!!! At least they should now all be gone!! Come on you glamourous gal - you and I have a date at the Royal Highland and we defo want to be skinny minis together both on conso so we can get some treats in the food hall - never know might find some tablet cheesecake!!!! But can't have it if we're still messing around on cruise!!! My mouth is watering again - that blimmin tablet!!! LOLOLOL. Hope you put extra effort into the garden/horses/housework to get rid of that scone belly!!! x

 

[ellie1969]

lol im just sitting doing my highland entries.... im going to be there for the 4 days members bar for pimms ??

the weather forcasters were right....woke up to a good few inches this morning .......... of snow ponies were might annoyed that i put them out in a snow storm last night... they stood at the gate looking at me as if to say you gotta be kidding right... away to get dressed to get them in. not sure if blacksmiths here today or tommorrow so have to nip to the village to get cash.... hubby not long text saying the roads are terrible

 

[CHRISR]

Oh to have a nice warm scone with best butter ............:drool: sorry - I was thinking of brown sauce yesterday - WHY!

Mr Ellie is the biggest saboteur and he should bake his own scones and then eat them immediately !!! LOL

 

[CHRISR]

Oh awful weather - for once I can say the weather is good here compared to yours - dull but dry - hate snow with a passion - has someone forgot its April .......... My birthday is next week and when I was a child it snowed then.

 

[FlickaFlea]

I hope your horses are well and not too grumpy with the snow ellie! Even with the bad weather it still sounds idyllic for me down in London...I really don't think I'm born to be a city dweller.....I noticed you have a rayburn and I wondered - do you ever do fried eggs in the oven? It's a sort of cross between a fried and baked egg, cooks it all round. We've had an Aga for years and years and I've always done them on in a non-stick aga pan and bung it in and they are the best eggs and come out really well with no oil/butter, so I just realised perfect for dukan.

 

[ellie1969]

ive never done them in the oven just in the pan on top of it

 

[FlickaFlea]

well, I recommend them that way too....

And I love all this Dukan cooking - It's strange how now I'm finding time for cooking, because I have to, when I didn't always in recent years. Really enjoying it

 

[ellie1969]

tuesday PP
B- 2 hazelnut muffins with chocolate & hazelnut quark icing
L- salmon & cottage cheese
D- turkey mince flan & BBQ sauce
snacks- turkey, ham, sf jelly, muffin

[lorlypop]

Your menus are always sooo lush Ellie. You could very easily start your own business doing mail order Dukan ;-)

 

[FlickaFlea]

I was thinking you could publish a dukan recipe book! He does say in his book to write in with recipes that are good maybe you could team up.....

 

[trudyc]
