Thanks Orca, had forgotten about freezing salmon. Yes tarama not very good I think and we have pretty much stopped eating it, though still sometimes indulge when we are in the UK. Eggs also a good idea, will put those on the menu, I love egg sandwiches. Love marmite too, but never sure about how much salt there is? Will give banana a try too. Would banana and dates work? Am also looking into the low fat cheeses, but no cottage cheese here and not sure I fancy a ricotta sandwich?
