What Did You Keto Today? The Trilogy!

Salmon and mayo in an omelette.
I made a bold decision today…I do not like tinned salmon! I’ve tried various brands now and they’re all quite gross in my opinion! salmon fillets only from now on!

I do not like tinned salmon!

I sometimes whizz some up with a handful of coriander leaves, a load of grated ginger and a squeeze of lemon or lime. I call it ‘dip’ but naaaaaah, I just eat it with a spoon!

It’s now struck me that I haven’t had any tinned salmon for ages! #makesshoppinglist

First appetizer… greetings from Verona

[Kage]

Swiss steak from the instant pot and frozen broccoli buttered with a sprinkle of Parmesan. I ended up eating half and packed up the other half to take to work.

I’ve tried to do OMAD but I just can’t eat very much at one sitting. Two eggs with a couple slices of bacon leaves me pretty full but that’s not enough food to go on for very long.

Same for me. I can’t eat that much in one sitting to make OMAD sustainable. Every once in a while I can, but not often.

Question: what is the sauce on the Swiss steak made from? Looks amazing.

[Kage]

This is BEAUTIFUL! Yum.

No pictures today … because I ended up fasting. I just wasn’t hungry.

Eggs and asparagus

On another note… how did this concept of dipping steak into melted butter occur? Where did this idea come from?

Chefs have been placing butter or flavored compound butter (i.e., butter w/ herbs, garlic, etc.) over steak for years. It’s a wonderfully delicious way to finish off a steak, and something that’s been around for a while. Therefore, it’s probably no big stretch to think that people dipping steak into melted butter would be a “thing.” Then, combined with some people’s meticulous desire to chase macros and “get their fat up,” voila, steak dipped in butter…

I love Verona! I have been to the Arena 4 times!

After mum’s appointment, we went for lunch at the Bent Arms. I had my favourite bacon and brie salad with avocado!

[Marlitharn]

Thanks! The recipe I used is here: https://www.meatloafandmelodrama.com/instant-pot-swiss-steak/

I left out all the cornstarch and used a can of drained diced tomatoes.

[Kage]

Thank you! I really need to use the Instant Pot more often. I tend to forget about it.

I just made these little pork thingies wrapped in bacon for breakfast tomorrow! I can’t wait til the morning I just tried one and they’re so yummy!

[Momof5]

They look delicious!

[ClareBear]

We need to give them a name! ‘pork thingies’ doesn’t do them enough justice!

[Janie]

Thanks! I will try this when I get home. I have some garden tomatoes in the freezer I can use and may have to thicken a bit in the pot on saute setting after the steak is cooked. This woudl be good with cauli mashed.

That looks really lovely! It’s similar to a dish in a video I watched by Jamie Oliver for a fish pie (subbing cauliflower mash for mashed potatoes). I just don’t know where to buy smoked haddock locally.
