Onto day three and I'm starting to realise that the right breakfast is able to carry you right through to lunch - yesterday's hunger was actaully just a rumbly tummy right on cue at lunchtime!! Only having enough oats left for one more portion of porridge and wanting a change from fadge. This morning we had welsh rarebit....
Welsh Rarebit Recipe
1 tbsp margerine
1 tbsp SR Flour
2oz Cheese *
1/2 tsp mustard powder **
Milk
Wholemeal Bread
* add what ever amount you have - this is what we had and was enough for 4 of us
