I did it. Ambrosia, nectar of the gods bone marrow butter is delicious… The salty crusty bits inside…

Thanks so much for the recipe :heart_eyes:

(and yes, best way of consumption is the direct route via spoon :drooling_face:)

Yeah, stick blenders come in handy. :slight_smile: I’ve had one for years, and mostly used it for baking, such as when I Make Cheese Cakes. (Grinding crust, etc.) … But would like to try some of the ideas here for Avocados. I only bought the two, and I did eat them straight with nothing on them. Didn’t think they had much taste, but I do see a lot of folks using them along with other stuff. … And from what I’ve read, they do have some good stuff in them, so they seem beneficial. :slight_smile:

I think someone else told me before that you need to put at least salt on them. But for some reason, I was thinking of trying them in a Salad too. Thanks.

I’ve heard of folks using the Trader Jos’s Everything, but have never tried it. (Another store that is not very near to me.) :slight_smile: … But I might be able to try adding it to the Chicken or Eggs, thanks. :slight_smile:

Mamma mia

My new favourite way to start the day. I started getting ‘coffee rage’ after my daily morning coffee so this week have switched to turmeric lattes. I feel a lot calmer without the coffee!

2 tsp turmeric
1 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp ginger
1 tbsp cream
1 tsp coconut oil
1 pinch Celtic sea salt
1/2 tsp 50/50 erythritol/stevia blend

Whizz it up and taste the goodness.

Supposedly you can portion & freeze it… not that its ever lasted long enough for me to test that…

#4188

#4189

tonight’s dinner is a pesto veggie-chicken cheese casserole with a side of zucchini, mushrooms, and onions sautéed in enough butter to make Paula Deen faint

#4191

Had a Chicken Salad with Pepperoni, a side of Pickles, Olives, Deviled Eggs and Shrimp. Then 3 Sirloin Burgers, covered over with Butter soaked Mushrooms and Onions, and Broccoli with even more butter.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that I made this batch of Deviled Eggs with Thousand Island Dressing & Taco Seasoning on top instead of Paprika, which I’m finding quite nice indeed. :slight_smile:

I can see how that might work :drooling_face:

#4193

Yep, it did, nicely. :slight_smile: … I usually like adding something else from time to time, along with the Mayo and Mustard. I’ve used Horse-Radish, Blue Cheese, etc. But after adding the Thousand Island last night, I decided to try using some Taco Seasoning for an extra punch. … My son liked it like this as well. :slight_smile:

@Digital_Dave Me too, I either make my own chocolates and ganache, or have a Choc Zero Salted Almond Bark. I also usually swap out for homemade Keto Chocolate Mousse. I just think the bitterness of the chocolate fonshes off the eating day, kind of like a fine espresso!

#4195

That sounds nice. Do you happen to have a recipe you wouldn’t mind sharing? :slight_smile:

(Virginia ) #4196

and Choc Zero Salted Almond Bark

#4197

Yep, that sounds good too…

Avocados: Always salt them, otherwise they are pretty tasteless. I always love them on salads. I actually salt them after I cut and before I put them on the salad so I make sure they get enough salt. They are also great eaten with broth soups. Not mixed in cause they lose the salt. Same thing with tacos etc. guacamole made right with a tablespoon of very finely minced onion salt and lime🤤

I make a chocolate mousse by dumping in about 3T of cream cheese, and a 1/2 cup to a cup of HWC. I blend it together until it is stiff, a little more than whipped cream (it should firmly hold it’s shape) then I add 1 1/2 teaspoons of cocoa (from my actual silverware not an actual measuring spoon) and finally sweetener to taste. None of this is measured exactly except the cocoa because once or twice I added too much and it made it too bitter. Turns out great every time, I also usually add a handful of berries afterwards. it makes enough for 2-3 servings.

Liverwurst/Hot English on Flax Muffin with Chilli Cornichons, Feta Stuffed Olives & Walnuts/Brazils.

(Jane) #4200

Stopped in at Chuy’s in Little Rock tonight for dinner. We can split fajitas for ONE and be stuffed … even w/o the tortillas. It’s pretty good for a chain restaurant.

They sell cute t-shirts. This one was a photo on the wall but if they had this one for sale I would have bought it in a heartbeat!

Very cool, thanks Ice. :slight_smile: Will have to check into that.

#4202

That looks good. I was just telling the wife about Liverwurst. It’s been quite a while since I had some. :slight_smile:
