Eggstravaganza

Boy, did I do eggs today!
I sure love them, but not as much as this guy

Breakfast was a 2 egg omlette with 1 1/2 slices of cheese & half a sliced chorizo sausage at nearly 10am once everyone else was finally fed.

Lunch was brilliant but unfortunately I have no photos :( . I went for a picnic lunch with some friends in the park that is/was part of the Chelsea Sugar Refinery - kind of funny & ironic that 3 low carb lifestylers would choose a place such as that to eat lunch! What I can tell you is that I had some delicious Blue Cheese Quiche and some salad which comprised of baby spinach leaves, cheese & something that was a cross between ham & bacon (and yet I'm sure was neither of those things). Very yummy though! Dessert was my contribution to the affair - a coconut panna cotta/jelly type thing.

Which brings us to dinner - yes after all that lunch, I wanted dinner. The last remaining chorizo sausage from the fridge, 2 fried eggs & some salad greens (as if I didn't have enough at lunch!). That yellowy stuff is 'dressing'.

This will be dessert when I leave here. I fancy something a bit sweet tonight so I have some frozen berries waiting for me in a bowl. My crass upbringing dictates that I will eat them using nothing more than my fingers. Apparently this is permissable, but licking a plate is not - go figure!

  1. It was a lovely picnic Amber.
    The "something" in the salad was prosciutto - an Italian style ham that had been lightly grilled.
    Thanks for dessert; it went down a treat, and those berries look delicious.

  3. Not at all Ammber.
    It was the first time I'd used it too and I was a bit puzzled when the recipe said to grill it as I'd always thought that you ate it raw, like ham!
    I was going to phone Jo, the expert, to ask her but decided to just do what the recipe said to do for once!
    It came out quite crunchy and nice.
    I'd like to know what's in the dressing you used yesterday.

  4. That 'dressing' is Heinz Salad Cream - 15.7g carbs per 100g.
