Am in a lovely little fish restaurant in Vienna and ordered grilled seabream. This was perfectly cooked and came with spinach. I opted not to have the potatoes due to the dukan restrictions but I honestly didn’t miss them  

Am in Vienna and thankfully its a protein and vegetable day. I ordered this mix of grilled vegetables which were marinated in garlic and herbs and I have to say that it was heavenly. I don’t think I have ever enjoyed vegetables so much!  

I really couldnt face salmon today, so prepared this coronation tuna.  Normally I would have mayo with tinned tuna but today mixed it with fat free natural yoghurt, curry powder and ground black pepper.  I have to say it was lovely and made a very satisfying change!

I just had to have a different breakfast today as I have smoked salmon coming out of my ears!  I cooked some low fat bacon medallions and had them on top of oatbran galettes. They were delicious!!  I put a little bit of natural yoghurt on the galettes to moisten them a bit,  This was […]

Am having hard core will power today as I am still feeling guilty about breaking the Dukan plan for some glasses of bubbly. I have loads of social occasions coming up so want to be as good as possible in the run up to those! For lunch I took the remainder of today’s allocation of […]

Despite my desperate craving for some toast with marmite, I managed to keep strong and committed to the dukan plan. For breakfast I had oatbran galettes topped with natural yoghurt and smoked salmon. I squeezed plenty of lime juice over the top which gave it a real zest!

I fear I may soon look like a piece of smoked salmon! This was a very light supper of smoked salmon with plenty of freshly squeezed lemon juice and some cottage cheese. Added a few gherkins on the side  

I lapsed from the dukan plan yesterday with several glasses of bubbly so am feeling guilty and worried that the few pounds I have managed to lose will jump straight back on! Am back on plan today and fingers crossed I haven’t done too much damage! For lunch I enjoyed black pepper roasted salmon with […]

This is probably my favourite dukan style breakfast and it is perfect for a weekend treat. Bacon and egg with oatbran galettes. I only eat the egg yolk which is a shame. I can’t bear the texture of egg white (unless its in a meringue- yummy!!!)  

Always looking for a dukan version of tasty favourites so made this cottage pie with swede mash instead of potato. Really lovely!  I never normally bother with swede as it looks so unappealing but it has a delicious almost sweet taste and mashes really well  

For lunch I had my leftover indian marinated chicken mini fillets with natural yoghurt on oatbran galettes. A perfect little dukan friendly lunch  

Today is a protein and vegetable day on the Dukan plan but I am saving my vegetables for a dulan friendly shepherds pie later. For breakfast I opted for smoked salmon and cottage cheese on oatbran galette. I tried to make one big galette like a pancake that I could flip but I think that […]

Decided to try cooking turkey breast in cajun spices. I tossed the breast in cajun spices and fried in a pan which I had sprayed with oil and wiped off. Once the meat was bown on both sides, I baked it in the oven until cooked through and then let it rest. I served it […]

I marinated these chicken mini fillets in natural yoghurt and curry spices and baked in the oven. I served them with oat galettes and natural yoghurt for lunch. I think I overdid it with the spices- they were just a bit too hot!

These breakfasts on the Dukan diet are getting a bit monotonous. I fully admit that that is entirely my fault and nothing to do with clever Mr Dukan! Its just hard to think about variet when your body is screaming out for peanut butter on toast!!!! So here I am again with oatbran galettes, smoked […]

I was delighted with these dukan friendly beef burgers. I layered up 2 oatbran galettes with fat free natural yoghurt, balsamic fried onions, home made burgers and slices of gherkin on top. They looked like a top notch meal and tasted delicious with a really good range of tastes and textures. I throughly enjoyed this […]
