Shepherds Pie! A classic.. 
What's For Dinner?
- Thread starter Namaste Jesus
- Start date
Light Caesar salad,, iced decaffeinated Constant Comment and a chocolate candy bar with medications for dessert (the chocolate is to celebrate World Chocolate Day.)
The Trio had their usual crunchies along with cool Milwaukee tap water (to contradict the heat.)
I'm planning on having Asian Apple Salad tommorow along with similar stuff [except for the chocolate.)

Be your own guru.
May be 'once in a while', but will hardly suffice for me. Our basic food is lentils with wheat bread or rice.
Government has determined the price of one meal at 0.36 USD. Non-veg at 0.72 USD.

We had stuff that didn't require any electricity this weekend due to severe thunderstorms that took out the electrical grid here (no stove, no oven, no coffeemaker [which I use to brew tea], no refrigerator, nothing.)

We are so dependent on electricity and gas.

I tried an experiment, making a pizza waffle (it was pretty successful imho) as well as a no sugar added peach pie (diabetes is a pain in the glutes, trust me), and I accompanied them with iced decaffeinated Earl Grey and medications.

I had vegetarian "shrimp" ramen with Chinese vegetables, vegetarian stuffed "chicken" with sharp Cheddar, diet Earl Grey tea that I let cool down, a slice of cranberry apple pie and my ubiquitous medications.
The Trio had a tin of chicken and duck gooshy food along with Milwaukee tap water from their flower fountain (not that they minded...)

Diet tea?

I suppose 'no sugar' and some ingredients which reduce weight.
I suppose Phyllis would be horrified by India/Pakistan/Bangladesh tea.
More than one teaspoons of sugar and water and milk in equal quantities, sometimes only milk, and on top of it boiled for 10 minutes to get the deep brown color, fortified with cardamom and ginger in winter, sometimes cinnamon too.

Though, I can't drink black tea. Gives me heart palpitations.
Green tea is fine.
I use either stevia or sucralose as a sweetener. Reduces the carbs dramatically, yet is just as sweet (might try your "receipt" for tea, substituting the other sweeteners for the sugar and substituting decaffeinated tea for the regular.)I suppose 'no sugar' and some ingredients which reduce weight.

I reserve the sugar and or honey for times that my glucose levels are too low.

I'm going to try the "receipt" using decaffeinated tea instead of regular.
Anyway, have you ever tried white tea? I have some loose leaf white with rose petals, and I believe that it has less caffeine than even green...

For me the default is to drink my tea plain black, with nothing in it. So I think of tea as inherently calorie free.
(Good thing 'cause I drink it nonstop)
I am or once was vaguely aware people put additives into tea... but I tend to forget
and don't think about how sweet or spiced or milky/creamy tea is someone's idea of a regular cup of tea and that diet innovations have to be developed...

What, what? Decaffeinated? Like non-alcohlic beer? Not for us.
