Cheese Herb Bread – low carb
Cheesy low carb bread Much as I am enjoying baking and being able to eat sweet – low carb – treats, my craving is not for sweets, but rather savoury flavours, like cheese and Marmite. I made Lemon Poppy Seed bread from the New Atkins Cookbook a few weeks ago with this...
Cardamom Butter Cookies – low carb
Cardamom Butter Cookies I am still baking. And using Patrick’s low carb vegetarian blog as a platform to share the results of my efforts. Patrick, as some of you may know, works in the marine oil industry in summer in Scotland and has been a bit predisposed. This...
Low carb choc chip cookies

Last of the Indian summer
Andhra Carrot Curry We are great believers in using up what we have, rather than throwing it away and buying more. When Karen went back to SA she left me a well stocked fridge, amongst which were a lot of carrots. Also being on an Indian crusade, I had all the spices....
