Sandles - ye its funny how some things lower the GI when eaten tog.

I read in my cookbook of a damper recipe, then eat it with baked beans to lower the GI. What the.....

For dinner - I made lentils/doongara rice yest and had salad. My reading was 7.1!

But then after the 2 hr lunch test I went crazy binging on cherries, cheese, jelly and wholemeal lavash bread.

Caz, you are inspiring me to cook!!

I might drag out the ole bread maker and whip us some herb and cheese damper. I used to make it all the time before kids.

Whats the deal with flour and GD? Use wholemeal only?

I have been snacking on grapes ever since I got home. Not looking forward to the result. I can't help it though when they are sitting in the fridge, washed and chilled and its 33 degrees outside

Sandles - yep I'd say use just wholemeal. Just tested after dinner (5.2), so whipped up another batch of oatmeal and cranberry muffins for supper and im gonna put some Logical marg on them.....

What is the result after grapes. Pls let me know....
