fingers to sprinkle over the top of the cake. Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes, or

baking, poke holes in the top with a toothpick. Pour glaze over the cake,
making sure to cover all surfaces. Serve cake warm or at room temperature.

Spanakopita Bite

1 Tablespoon vegetable oil
1 small onion, chopped
3 green onions, chopped
10 ounces frozen chopped spinach. thawed and squeezed dry
4 to 6 ounces domestic feta cheese, crumbled
1 cup cottage cheese
1 egg
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pound phyllo, thawed
8 tablespoons butter (1 stick), melted
2 tablespoons vegetable oil


Preheat oven to 375 degrees

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in medium skillet over medium heat. Add white and
green chopped onions; cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes.

Meanwhile, mix spinach, feta, cottage cheese and egg in medium bowl. Add cooked
onions and season with salt, and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to
use.

Combine the remaining butter and oil and set aside until ready to use.

Remove the phyllo dough from the package and stack up. Carefully cut the phyllo
dough into 2 inch by 2 inch squares; set aside.


Prepare your mini muffin pan by brushing butter in each well. Place 1-2 squares
of phyllo dough into each well, pushing down to create a cup or crust. Brush
the top phyllo filled wells with more melted butter and repeat by placing 1-2
squares of phyllo dough into each well and pushing down to create a cup or
crust again. Repeat with another layer of 1-2 squares of phyllo dough and brush
with more melted butter.


Place a heaping teaspoon into each well, filling the phyllo cup. Bake in the
preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Stop it tara... I just ate cheesecake and I feel like yacking...that will learn me.

Oooooo I love it when you girls do the dukan and post your stuff... it gets me all in the mode for doing the right thing...plus I secretly follow your tips and apply them.

Delia,

Did you bake any Dukan stuff or was it all decadent yumminess ???


Craving cheesecake atm. Ooooh OR Lemon Tart. Drool.

Tara

I am not counting today I did eat things I baked but tomorrow is back on the straight and narrow for me.
Del

Day 1 successful. Will have a roast chook tonight so might have some veg but stick to protein breakfast and lunch. Will leave off the potato.

Well done Linda it will be great to have someone to do this with again.
Delia

Well I started again today. Poached egg on smoked salmon. Very nice. I have some eggs boiling for lunch. I also have some smoked chicken ready. I will have a piece of salmon tonight. I have greek yoghurt but also some nice vanilla yoghurt that is probably not suitable but I will have it anyway. I will try for 3 protein days.

If you stopped loosing weight, Dr Dukan advise to do a " white day" made out of white egg, white meat ( chicken) and white fishs and yoghurt only to get pass the plateau.

Tolerated Foods


Here you can find a list of "tolerated
foods ( TF). These foods you can have from the cruise phase but in limited
quantities.

You are allowed a maximum of two TF portions per day.
Note: if you are experiencing stagnation, please avoid TF every day.

• Fat free fruit yoghurts with fruit pieces 1
• Plain soya yoghurt 1
• Soya milk 1 glass (15cl)
• Corn flour 20g
• Cocoa powder 11% fat, sugar free 1 tsp
• Wine (red/white) for cooking 3 tbs
• 7% or less fat cheese 30g
• Rhubarb 100g
• Oil 3 drops (3g)
• Gaspacho (not home made) one glass
• Soy sauce 1 tsp
• Extra light Philidelphia 30g
• Light cheese like laughing cow 30g
• Spiced Goat sausage 50g
• Poultry sausage 100g"

So you can have max of two portions of tolerated foods a day, eg 1 fruit yogurt
and 30g of cheese with less than 7% fat.





This is not in the book but is given to
people who pay to be coached on the Dr’s site.


Lorraine and a few others pass on the
information to us

Thank you Deb for the compliment.

I feel good also big bonus.
Del

Deb I would just eat the lamb. Go for inner meat and it should be fine. You are just starting so will do well anyway.

Deb I have lost 4.6 in 6 weeks. I have just had a 2 or 3 week break but am ready to get back into it. I started on 2 Jan.

Deb I just tried to ring you but got the servo then you were engaged.
lol I was caught up in the traffic. Hours.
So what happens in the accident did you hear?
Del

Can I come and help you eat the smoked salmon.
I noticed on the Dukan forum that the Dr has said no to smoked salmon now as it is too salty... what the hell I will still eat it.
I brought it last week and the caviar to have with poached eggs and forgot and ate it alone.
Del

Hi Del.....you have probably seen all my posts lol....fancy taking it for granted lamb is allowed. Ive just made it harder for myself sitting here smelling it cooking lol...Never mind I won't touch it.

Can I have any salt and pepper at all?

I loved the oatbran muffin by the way .I made the savoury ones.

The servo was so busy yesterday with all the traffic diverted along Steve Irwin way. I feel sorry for anyone caught in the traffic...

Hey Linda have you lost much on the Dukan? I got a nice surprise when I saw Del as her weight loss was very noticeable.

Cheers Deb

Yes Deb use this thread to talk and you can make a thread for yourself or I will do it if you like and you can post what you are eating and your thoughts like I do on mine.
You are doing well today.
Can have two of the muffins from my recipe.
I get the Atkins plan mixed up with this also but think I am getting better at it. I actually like Dukan more as I like the dairy we can have.

I haven't made them yet. I still have muffins left. I am eating a lot of smoked salmon today as I opened a new package that expires tomorrow. DOH

bugger or right.
How did the biscuits go/?

bugger I saw you were going to cop it today.

Thanks for posting that for Deb. It would have saved me a lot of typing. Dah You know I am blonde.
With the muffins I use the tupperware silicon muffin container.
They never stick.
If you spray the paper the muffins won't stick either.
Try and let me know and also how the biscuits come out.
I wonder if you could use some rhubarb in them.
I may try that later.
It is flooding up here everywhere. So many roads cut. We had to go to Beerwah before and there was heaps of water over the road this side of Landsborough.
As the road is cut north and south of Gympie I don't think we will be getting to Frasier Is on Thur. maybe Friday have to see how it all goes and how much more rain we have.
Delia

Deb I will ring you
