DIET?
Yes, Lynne is still following the Low/No
carbohydrate diet, when she can. She had one pita bread on Sunday and swelled
up like a balloon, so obviously the yeast and the bread are not a good idea.
Note to self: DON’T DO. Broccoli and cauliflower are two of the permitted
vegetables, so if you are struggling for ideas, try this simple supper dish –
the quantities are up to you
Florets of half a white crisp
cauliflower – 250g stems of sprouting broccoli – 200ml cream – 100g grated
Parmesan or grana padano – 25g flaked almonds- salt and freshly ground black
pepper – optional: a grating of nutmeg
Lightly toast the almonds in a dry pan and set
aside. Heat the cream and stir in the cheese until it melts. Briefly boil the
two vegetables in salted water or rinse them and cook in the microwave,
covered, for 3 minutes. Put into a serving dish, cover with the cheese cream
sauce and sprinkle over the toasted almonds and the nutmeg, if using. You can serve immediately or, if you like the
vegetables cooked a little longer, bake in a medium oven at 180˚C for 20
minutes
