** Claire's low carb blah blah chit chat gabbing **

[Quak]

Afternoon Claire, I just seem to have less and less time for cooking during the week, probably due to going to classes lol - I can't win can I anyway a couple weeks of Exante should help get the lbs coming off and I know I won't drink while I am on it, and weekends won't be the same temptation because it is so rigid. Will be good for me I think. xx

Sadly I went to morrisons for a change instead of asda or Tesco as its a lot closer. They only had one tub of full fat cream cheese! Their own brand, 300g n I need 400g for the curry n quichey-cheesecake thing. Only had light Philly which was 1.2g carb per spoonful! I'll just make up the difference with cream or something. It'll be reet.

'twas

Swapped the peppers for mushies, milk for soy milk n added one fresh red chilli n a tsp garlic purée. Used three chicken breasts rather than four n had half the mix. So gives me two chicken breasts left to make the savoury cheesecake mix thing tmoz.

Evening claire - we always pick the tesco or waitrose own brand as its lower carb than philly

Evening Claire, your dinner looks lovely - and what's this about a savoury cheesecake???

 

[British_Claire_84]

I kinda bodged the recipe I found on the Philly app.

My version -

Cooked chicken chunks (I just fried off two breasts but u could use any variety)
Two leeks
Six cherry tomatoes, quartered
300ml sour cream
250g Philly but I had 180g morrisons version left from tea so used that
Grated cheddar
Five whole eggs
Splash of soy milk n cream (to make up for the lack of cream cheese)

Pre-heat oven to 160'c.

Slice up the leeks n sauté in butter, add the tomatoe pieces after a couple mins n sauté all together. Fry off the chicken breast (I chopped it quite small) n add to leek n tomato mixture or add the other cooked chicken.

Beat the cream cheese, sour cream, soy milk n cream till smooth. Crack one egg in at a time n beat in. Then repeat for all eggs. Mix in the chicken, leeks n toms.

Lob it in a greased sprung tin (I didn't have one so chucked it in silicon bakeware instead). Sprinkle a little grated cheddar on top n put in oven. Bake for 45-50mins or until set.

I've got mine cooking now. Used muffin holders n a loaf type tin (silicon). Guessing the little ones will need less time to cook so I'm keeping an eye on them.

 

[British_Claire_84]

Little ones out after twenty mins. Starting to brown. Dunno if egg cooked n set lol.

 

[ladyfelsham]

Oh yum am going to try them this weekend - taste scrummy?

 

[British_Claire_84]

Dunno hun they're still cooling before I turn em out. Big loaf still cooking.

 

[British_Claire_84]

Little ones now turned out onto wire rack to cool. Came out of silicon muffin tray very easily
