Low carbing
I
am on a weightloss trip at the moment and Tim is very kindly on the
trip with me. To that end we are following a low carbohydrate diet,
which to a carbohydrate addict as I am, is quite difficult. Tim is
coping quite well, because bad carbs, as a rule, he can take or leave.
I, however am having trouble. I love bread, fresh hot homemade bread,
dripping with butter and real honey, and chocolate really is the food of
the gods.Low carb substitutes are not the same. Nobody could ever claim that mashed cauliflower is equal to mashed potato, but it is yummy, and because cauliflower is fairly bland as a rule, you can jazz it up with so many different herbs and spices that you can have a different taste experience every time.
Example from last night -dinner was lamb leg steak marinated in honey and mint, with carrots, green beans and cauliflower mashed with mint and butter. A dash of salt and ground black pepper, perfect.
