Mattessons Fridge Raiders Tikka Chicken Bites

January 9, 2011 Leave a comment

Fridge raiders Also come in roast Chicken Flavour

Great for a snack at only 1.3 grams per pack.  Its something to buy to stick in the fridge at work or at home, for those days when you haven’t got time to prepare lunch and you’re so hungry you would gladly run over to the shop for a lovely carb loaded sandwich.  Or when you get in from a busy day and you know that preparing a meal and cooking it is going to take an hour and you are so so hungry, that the cheese and onion pringles are actually begging for you to eat them.  say NO to evil pringles, and munch on these instead whilst you are prepping and cooking.

M&S ‘The Grill’ Peppered Chicken

January 9, 2011 Leave a comment

M&S ‘The Grill’ Peppered Chicken is only 0.4 grams of carbohydrates per pack.  The pack contains 6 strips of chicken.  My husband and i had 3 strips each with chargrilled veg.  Pepper, leek and courgette.

1.5 pepper= 8

1/2 leek = 1.5

4 large mushrooms=2

and 2 courgettes=4

total 15.5 veg + 0.4 chicken – lets call it 16 carbs for two people so a lovely meal for only 8 carbs.

I heartily recommend this, it is truly honestly totally delicious.

 

 

At the moment these are three packets for £10 in M&S . So at roughly £3.33 per packet to feed 2 people, its not so bad!

Pataks curry

October 28, 2010 2 comments

i was told about Pataks pastes not being so high in carbs, so i bought a 283g tin Tikka Masala. used 1/3 of a can added 1/2 can tomatos and an onion as well as chicken.  You can also add cream.

Pataks 1/3 tin tikka massale = 7

1/2 tin toms = 6

1/2 onion = 4

Tortilla = 3

total carb count for this recipe is 20 grams.  Be careful if you are on induction. this is quite high.  Be careful if you aren’t on induction – don’t have a carb loaded lunch

sugar free lollies from lowcarbmegastore  because of the fake sugar substitute if you buy these or any other low carb sweets, you can only eat about a handful – please see polyol isomalt article in introduction for more info

I Want Sugar in my Coffee Because I Will Kill The Kids if i Don’t Get Caffeine

October 15, 2010 Leave a comment

I know, I know.  I am addicted to coffee, i need two cups before i even leave for work.  depending on the Journey i might even do a cup and take it with me.

I have learnt to live without milk, it was quite easy.  but coffee is too bitter without  a little sweet stuff.

The best sweeteners to buy for brew purposes, is SPLENDA

sweeteners do have a carb value, and if you are a coffee hound like me, all these carbs can add up.
