I just ate sushi and that'll be it for me for today. I usually have a nut bar in my bag in case I feel hungry at work, but that rarely happens anymore. On weekends I do better.

I do the same thing as I am trying to do high protein and very low carbs, at least for a few weeks. I never get sick!!! But I have had this lingering weird thing for a month now and I am determined to get rid of it. Hence my new approach.

I agree Cods. My sister suffers from Coeliac Disease and, although I don't, I am finding that as I get older bread and carbs just don't make me feel good.

I made some scotch eggs just recently.

I favour very sparse toppings.

I've discovered a really good pizza hack.
I pull this out when daughter had friends over at last minute. I always have nepolitana sauce in the freezer so that takes 2 mins to sort out.

Get the toppings ready and put them on Lebanese bread and into the oven. It's different from pizza but really good and really quick.

I find the bread burns before even the cheese melts sometimes. Maybe being frozen could sort that

No I lay them out on the kitchen bench for 10 minutes before I put the toppings on and I turn the oven to NO more than 180 degrees and check them in 10 minutes. I haven't burnt any yet.
