Anyway prior to my operation I have to do a liver reduction diet and it doesn't look interesting at all.
Basically everyday for the next 2 weeks I can have
Breakfast
30g cereal
or
1 slice of bread with a scraping of low fat spread
Lunch
4oz meat or fish or cheese or 2 eggs
1 slice of bread or 2 Ryveta
Unlimited salad or tomatoes
Dinner
4oz meat or fish or cheese or 2 eggs
4oz potato or 2 tablespoons rice or pasta
unlimited vegetables
Plus
an apple & a banana
a low fat yoghurt
200ml milk
unlimited diet/low calorie drinks, tea or coffee ( using daily milk allowance)
So my plan for the week is
Monday: chicken thighs with butternut squash and rice with veg
Tuesday: Lamb steaks with mash, peas, and carrots
Wednesday: Spaghetti Bolognaise
Thursday: child free night - carvery at pub
Friday: Use the leftovers of the Spag Bol
Saturday: Portabello mushroom pizza ( see below for the recipe )
Sunday: roast dinner with all the trimmings ( minus a yorkie pud for me! )
I've decided to use my fruit and yoghurt to make a nice pudding in the evening but if I do get peckish during the day then I will have my banana then.
I came across a recipe for Portabello Mushrom Pizza in a magazine in the hospital waiting room, it looks really quick and easy to make.
Heat oven to 180 degrees C
Take 2 large Portabello mushrooms, remove the stems and bake for 5-10 minutes, then fill with chopped tomatoes and top with buffalo mozzarella cheese and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes.
