Salad lunch
A bit of a haphazard salad at work after I wasnāt originally going to eat. Ended up with salmon, sardines, a very small portion of chicken, spinach, egg, blue cheese, pink Himalayan salt, and an olive groveās worth of oil.
Lazy dinner
Couldnāt find the energy to make a proper meal for dinner. Cooked a full dinner for my daughter (obviously, otherwise sheād go without anything!) but couldnāt even think what to make for myself. Ended up with my ultimate fallback lazy dinner. Just some heated up Australian corned beef bathed in its own juices with a bit of cream cheese on the top. Ridiculously tasty for the minute amount of prep it takes. Also ate a bit more of the jerky I made recently.
Thank you (sincerely)
Australia for exporting the most delicious corned beef. Iāve never found any other imports or local brands that come close. I pick this one up in Asian supermarkets in the area.
Birthday drink
I was originally going to have a nice glass of Scotch tonight but not feeling well and not in the mood for it. Obviously non-keto stuff like birthday cakes are out of the picture and I avoid most sweeteners. After a long day that really dragged on, I made myself a hot chocolate with some cacao powder my wife had picked up, hot water, and a splash of heavy cream. The taste of the raw chocolate was really nice. Not exactly the same sort of hot chocolate Iād have had pre-keto (hot milk, milk chocolate, sugar, marshmallows etc - ugh) but made a nice change from the usual coffee or salted water.
