Your PV day looks tasty but make your next one a little more protein and less veg if you can. (Think 2/3 protein, 1/3 veg/salad where possible).

It would be good if you could get your diary moved into the diary section (PM the mods!)

Hi Ruth it wasn't like real bread but was good coz I could make soldiers and dip it into my egg !!!! I used the microwave recipe from the recipe thread on here so it was easy peasy x

Dukan Bread in the Microwave

2 tb oatbran
1 tb wheat bran
1 tb quark
1 egg
1 level ts baking powder
small pinch of salt if preferred

Mix all ingredients and beat well. pour into a microwaveable dish with straight sides (I used one of those plastic takeaway dishes).

Microwave on full power for 3 mins. you may need to adjust the time. at 800W I took mine out after 2mins 30 secs and it was done.

Take out of dish and leave to cool on a rack. It comes out very moist and somewhat 'rubbery', but quite a light spongy open texture. I left it out to cool & dry out a bit overnight. Depending on the size and shape of your dish you should be able to slice it convincingly for 'sandwiches'. I also make iti n silicone muffin cases (5 or 6) and munch those through a day.

Note: this contains ALL your bran allowance for a day so if you eat the lot then no other porridge, galette or cake allowed...

O and good luck with wi this morning after your first pv day ...how was it ????

 

[charlies mummy]

Morning ruth - you are doing fab!!!!

You are making a lot of effort with your menus which is great gives boredom less chance to sneak in- I sometimes get lazy and have easy stuff!! Its nice to get some ideas. Planning a baking day today - once I have battled supermarket.

Thank you for everyone's comments I think you have to make something good aesthetically as well as tasty to enjoy it!

Well I put on 0.25lb but I was unsure about the 1/3 2/3 ratio so now I know that I will be fine and that 1/4 of a pound will be gone in no time!

PP day today!

Will update later with my menu! Have a fab day everyone!

1.5 Tbsp Quark, 2 Tbsps Oat Bran (1.5 on Attack), (Sweetener, Salt or Vanilla Flavouring up to you!) 1 Egg.

Mix everything together so it looks a bit like gloopy porridge, heat a frying pan and pour in, cook like a pancake and add sweetener if you'd like!

I do it every morning
