Of all the Christmas food in the shops it's the chestnuts that are winking at me!! I have checked them out and they are around 50% carb :-(

So, last night I fried some cooked brussel spouts in butter and walnuts. It was really tasty and a good substitute for those gawjus chestnuts I am craving.

Also struggling to resist Christmas cake and Quality Street............ It's a long challenging build up to the actual day!

I'm that one person in a million that loves fruit cake. I could probably make a low carb version with coconut flour, pecans, and berries if it haunts me too much.

Nancy, looks like you and I are 2 in 2 million!

This one brand of candy cane ice cream; my all time fave and only available now through Christmas. AHHHHH!

good idea to do the sprouts with walnuts instead of chestnuts... dont forget the bacon too!
