Lettuce sticks and PB

I was looking for snacks in No carb diet. A blogger wrote of her experiences with Gary Taubes diet. Not many bloggers who follow this?
I found this peanut butter and celery as a low carb snack. I have been eating lettuce with chicken and or egg curry. I have been throwing away the thick stalks. After seeing this I realised that I could replace celery with the leftout lettuce stalks.

Regarding the diet, it is true that the pounds come off. I am eating quinoa whenever bored of the ghaas phus (grass vrass  meaning  greens).

Last week I lost 4 pounds.

The no limit on non-carbs.

I ate fried bajjis without any compunction.

And the digestive system has enough to work on.

Slices and Stallions

While there are books that are all about just one ingredient like Flavored oils and vinegars there are others that are about a gamut of things. Everything Pizza cookbook has recipes for all the kinds of pizza that there can be with different crusts, sauces, cheeses, toppings. Smoked Salmon Pizza, Polenta Pizza. Cooking for engineers Tasso Ham . When I read that Tasso is also the name of an Italian poet, I wanted to point to his work too. I looked for it but found it in prehistoric language. It so happens that I am reading poems about horses and recognised Tasso's name beneath his poem translated. Second paragraph has life infused in it with equine motions. Another poem that I like in this collection is 'New Foal' by Ted Hughes.

Banana pudding

I went over the roasted banana pudding recipe from yesterday and found it too consuming (shopping time, dishes, baking time), I finally decided on  caramelized banana pudding . And meringue making is merry. Flour is used in making the custard.  all purpose flour plays the corn starch  role of thickening the custard. I used  Parle G  instead of vanilla wafers.
