OMAD:
Egg salad (w/ homemade Mayo), 2x chicken thighs w/ skin, last small piece of brisket, pork belly, olives, spicy pickled quail egg, pickles.
What did you Keto today? Part Deux!
I use thighs as a base for pizza… fatten them out cook then add cheese and salami with maybe a touch of tomato paste…
I picked up some whole milk Bulgarian yogurt at a local market and will use it as a starter for my own yogurt. It was in a quart jar so not sure I can eat it all before it goes bad, so thinking of spooning into a silicon muffin mold pan and freezing it for future starters.
I’ve never tried culturing from frozen so will be interested to hear how it turns out.
Very useful to know as sometimes I struggle to eat what I make and it needs to be under seven days old to culture properly.
Omelet with thoroughly carmelized (to the point just short of burning) onions, sharp cheddar and sour cream.
Was a bit worried this was going to be a bit of a disaster but it came out well! Lasagne made with ground beef, layers of chicken deli meat, ricotta and mozzarella slices. Served it with a bit of garlic bread!
Cheeseburger balls! Ok mine aren’t exactly round but it was my first attempt. These were modified from Keto Connect’s sausage balls (though I made both). Filled these will mini burger with onions and sharp cheddar. Next time I would add a little garlic powder or salt. Super filling and

Had this to tell my brain and body that today is an eating day. I’ve already eaten (now I’ve had this) so might as well eat lunch and dinner.
Sausages, spam and eggs, I think. Or as I call it, the Viking Breakfast.
The PB is simply to have eaten something for the day, so therefore might as well keep eating rather than debating eat/not-eat endlessly #BRAINWARS style.
So, tonight we had carry out… um, sort of… or to a degree?
The wife made Chicken tonight, but I talked her into just adding it to the Salads, since I like meat in mine. …Then I just picked up 2 Rotisserie Chickens on my way home, since I had to stop and restock up on some Pickles and Olives anyway. … Salad w/ Chicken & Pork Rinds. 1/2 Rotisserie Chicken, Bacon, Deviled Eggs, Pickles, Olives. Then a side of Shrimp and Brussel Sprouts & Sauerkraut from last night. Plus the Hot uncured Smoked Sausage that was left. … Almost finished it all.
Pups helped with the Thigh I couldn’t finish.
I can’t believe you left the thigh … that is my favorite part. l would have left (a.k.a. shared) the breast.
Nah, I like the breast better. Oddly, the thighs were always my least favorite. The wife too, she said. … She likes the wings best. … But do know they are better for ya, as far as being fattier. But I also add some butter, HWC, etc. to fatten up the Breast.
I like the wings as well. At Thanksgiving, I start w/ the wings … then move to the thighs! I usually end up bringing home the legs because no one else wants to do all the work to get the meat off the tendons.
I don’t mind the legs either, but to be honest, I actually start with the Gizzards, Liver and Heart. … The wife is actually checking with the meat guy at the store presently, to see if he can order some Turkey Gizzards. … I already pick up Chicken Gizzards when they have them in. But would love to get a package of Turkey Gizzards. … But I’ve always like to cook these up first, or just use them in the gravy.
