I did 6 months on the Zoe diet at the start of last year. It completely changed the way I look at food.
My supper last night was a baked sweet potato with cheese and an enormous salad of avocado, lettuce, cucumber, courgette, tomato, onion, beetroot, grated carrot, nuts and seeds.
I went on the diet because I was pre diabetic, within the 6 months I had corrected the problem.
Most of my meals are low in carbohydrates nowadays!
I’ve seen that advertised all over social media. You recommend it?
I have a small sliding diaphragmatic hernia and I would love to get off PPIs

I found it a great way of changing my diet. Not cheap (it cost me about £500) but it achieved what I wanted and I feel fit, healthy and 10kg lighter.
I would certainly recommend it but read up about it and make sure it fits your needs.
 
Saturday night rib eye, followed by Sunday brunch fry up. I missed Sunday's sausage dinner with mash, veggies and onion gravy but followed on with Monday and bubble and squeak with the left over veggies.
Got room for a lodger?
 
By coincidence, this week the Food Foundation reports that it now costs £8.80 to buy 1,000 calories worth of "healthy" food (fruit and veg) whereas 1,000 calories of ready meals and processed meat only costs £4.30. Adding insult to injury, items in the first group have increased in cost by 21% over the last two years whereas the latter only increased 11%.

I can't help wondering if the price of "healthy" food items might be raised more than for others by supermarkets and suchlike, purely on the grounds that the customers will "stand more pain" to get what they want rather than having to buy whatever is cheapest. I accept that decisions on pricing may actually be quite complex, but the thought still crosses my mind...

We always buy the large bag of chips when having fish and chips.
That's enough for four people is their response.
The secret is to freeze the remaining chips for later and put them in the oven and you get well done , browned and crispy !
I've never thought of freezing chips. I didn't think they could save. I'll have to give it a go
