Yes Ma’am, I agree… and if there weren’t for so many other plates involved tonight, I probably would have inquired. … But I do believe I told V just give me a few.
What did you Keto today? Part Deux!
Been a minute since I posted foods … I have been to busy eating it THEN realizing I didn’t get a picture.
Since my last picture, I have been having a lot more eggs. Here is last nights …
Under the 4 outer eggs, there is a slice of Shank ham and cheese on a slice of coconut mug bread. I could only really get 4 slices from the mug bread, so the center egg has just ham and cheese under it.
(All the dark seasoning is Sumac and pepper)
Feeling a bit under the weather today (keto flu, maybe?), so I went with something lighter this morning.
Breakfast sausage and kale egg drop soup with salt, pepper, cayenne, and ground ginger.
I love me some soups!
I had non Keto friends come over for lunch yesterday. They brought a cheese platter for starters. I gave them Chicken Kiev and Mediterranean Broccoli salad, then this most amazing Keto Chocolate Cake for desert…they wanted the recipes.
I couldn’t post anything yesterday but tried another cracker recipe, this time just ground flax, sesame seed, a tablespoon of olive oil, one egg, and enough water to bind it all together. Crispier than the last batch but BF and I agree the flavor of the almond flour crackers was better. These still taste good, testing them for shelf life and freezer storage.
Had them later on with some chili.
One pleasant thing I’ve noticed about trying these crackers is that I don’t want to snack on them all the time. Before, if I had a box of crackers, I’d eat little handfuls of them all night long until they were gone. Now I eat what I prepare and I’m done. I don’t think about them, I don’t crave more. Once I’m done eating my meal, I’m not hungry again until the next day.
Went out with friends last night. The bowl closest to the camera is the one with no noodles for me. My friend was quite shocked but is a consumate host and complied with my wishes. He then kept pushing more meat on me as he was worried I wouldn’t be full without the noodles.
The restaurant had this handy piece of art I snapped a pic of so I can study the vocabulary. I’m already stumped by 雪花肉xuehuāròu snowflake meat. My local friends didn’t know either, but there was another poster showing highly marbled, thinly sliced beef with the same thing written.
Lunch yesterday
The strawberries were very tart, the blackberries were the sweetest I’ve ever eaten. They went well with the cheese cake fluff.
Last night’s meal… (in the dark at that) Lost power due to an accident near the house, so ate my Salad and headed out to the Grill to sear the Steaks before last daylight faded. … But just as the Steaks were done our power was restored. Steak and Shrimp - Also had Pickles & Olives, 2 squares of 92% Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate, few scoops Halo Top Ice Cream & a glass of Milk. (No Dairy for March)
Spaghetti with Meat Sauce
It speaks for itself, Zucchini noodles, leftover tomato sauce (cause we’re not supposed to eat too much at a time, right?) with beef, peppers, mushrooms and Parmesan cheese. And some pepperoni to give my fats and protein a bump,
(and because it’s yummy!).
Last night I bashed a new recipe from the current issue of Southern Living. Instead of using sweet potatoes, 'cos we ain’t havin that, I subbed radishes and completely omitted the honey called for because it’s never missed anyway. Turned out really good.
Rosemary Chicken Thighs with Veggies
I liked, but only the theory of your meal as the photo hasn’t uploaded.
Same here… But it did say loading. Figured it might be a link issue, rather than the site acting up.
I think so, as other photos are loading in other posts.
@Ruina created the post last night when the site wasn’t working and it was still in the post window so I just hit the button but it took a bit for me to notice the error.
Detour Breakfast
Pictured behind my lovely breakfast are two avocados that I bought unripe about 40 hours ago. They didn’t seem ready yesterday but I thought they seem good this morning. Both full of brown streaks and bruised.
So I had to make a detour from what was planned (frustrating and it happens to all of us)! Scrambled Eggs with Mushrooms, Arugula and Parmesan Cheese. Bacon side, sometimes the road less traveled turns out to be great!
