Happy Fastiversary to my fasting buddie gillymary well done on all you've achieved in the year and if a BMI of 27 is your "set point" so be it in my eyes that's very good indeed. Sue
Congratulation, Gillymary! Sounds good: slow and steady.

Fastiversary and other tasty rumblings

Thoroughly enjoying cooking at present and have churned out some 10 out of 10 meals according to my DH, the constant recipient of my culinary delights and disasters. Last night was my favourite way to do turkey mince in cottage pie which is lots of small chunks of chopped up veggies, garlic, the turkey mince fried up and then flavour with nutmeg, soy sauce and veggie stock, thicken with cornstarch. Pop this in a pie dish and my 5:2 low carb tweak was to top with a celeriac mash and then on top of that a crumble of chopped fresh parsley, flaked almonds and grated havarti cheese. Bake to golden. Serve with a leafy salad and my current favourite dressing. To 3 tablespoons of good quality egg mayo add smashed cooked egg yolk and 2 anchovies. Also add 1/2 lemon juice and good virgin olive oil and grind S&P. stirred to combine and dolloped over the leafy mix. Some gleaning from my poor neglected garden, which keeps on giving, were included in the salad eg rocket, basil, chives and tomato. Yummy
