Thanks Anna.

Since insulin sensitivity tends to be at its lowest later in the day, it makes sense to ensure that food eaten from 6pm onwards isn't too heavily laden with carbohydrate (unless one has exercised just prior).

Think protein and natural fat later in the evening.

Looks really fantastic, MrNiceGuy! I love avocados!😀

I love avocados too. However, I keep them in the fridge after purchasing, to ensure that they remain firm, thus, allowing the flesh to be removed from the skin far easier.

Despite their calorific content, they're also a fantastic source of fibre. As such, I eat around 3-4 large avocados each week.

Thanks Zest. It was certainly cocktail stick food at its finest (no hot dogs or pineapple in sight).

I'm sure you enjoyed that and gave a few of us a nice idea for tea...

Hopefully it's provided a window into my world. We may be in the depths of winter, but it doesn't mean that antipasti cannot be enjoyed year round. Sometimes, I even add a slice or two of cheesy garlic bread to the plate (don't tell Concerned, though).
