What Did You Keto Today? The Trilogy!

(Full Metal KETO AF) #3844

I just slice them and fry in a tiny bit of bacon grease usually. They cook fast. :cowboy_hat_face:

(Wendy) #3845

Me too! (Want the recipe that is) :yum:

Sorry, no pics. You will have to use your imagination. It was a re-feeding day after a 24 hour fast.

Breakfast (at home): 2 eggs over easy in olive oil with a little butter, and 2 strips of bacon, with black coffee.

Lunch (out): Spinach salad (with diced tomatoes, mushrooms, chopped bacon, hard boiled egg) and grilled salmon. Water with lemon to drink, coffee afterwards.

Dinner (home): Two baked chicken thighs (reheated), small mixed green salad with blue cheese dressing. Dessert of about 2 oz raspberries, some almond whipped cream topping, and pecans. Water to drink. Black decaf coffee after dinner.

Had a happy accident today. My youngest likes me to make him cheese crisps. I did his in the microwave with cheddar. Nice and crispy. I also had some Kraft Deluxe American slices. I cut a slice in half and microwaved it for a minute. It puffs up! I have to play with it some more, but it worked pretty well as a sort of bun! It was a little crispy/ messy, but tasty.

Big day for me today…I have a Junior Leadership Course today, which means I have to drive myself to Maidstone…on a motorway :scream: with town centre driving :scream::scream: but I’m gonna do it. Getting myself all suited up for the occasion too!

(Susan) #3850

Best wishes for great success on your course, Clare =-) and safe driving!

I hope your day goes really well. Enjoy the drive. :slightly_smiling_face:

David, I have an avocado trick that works for me.
Before the avocado gets too ripe cut it in half, remove just the seed and submerge it totally in water (I use something made of glass). Stick it in the fridge. The oil in the avocado helps prevent it from going soft, mushy, black or waterlogged. You can milk a couple of more days out of it easily.

Greetings from Bologna :slight_smile: I did my best to sneak in my toes, the plates were huge and tables tiny - even the waiter was surprised how much we ate. :wink: This morning, our host made us coffee and we were chatting away, sharing stories. He shamefully commented that they don’t eat pasta, to which my husband and I replied “neither do we!!” His wife has MS and they removed all carbs from their diet.
@ClareBear 2 kinds of proper fancy bologna :slight_smile:

Wow, I so envy you your beautiful holiday. Italy is my favourite place :sunglasses:

#3855

It has been great, far better than expected :slight_smile: we’ve decided to dedicate the next few vacations to Italy :slight_smile:

I had a beautiful 2 weeks in Sirmione on Lake Garda with a friend. We did Verona, for the Opera, and Venice. I particularly remember enjoying every mouthful of food we had😋
We went back to Verona to see another couple of Operas.

Another Topless fish pie! I feel better today and planning to eat the lot!

(John) #3858

Guess I should take pictures of my food but I’d rather eat it.

I’m out of bacon! Plenty of eggs, though. I was thinking I might make an omelet with a green bell pepper I had on hand. Then I remembered I had a piece of sirloin in the freezer.

So today breakfast was 2 eggs, scrambled in olive oil and butter, 8oz sirloin steak pan cooked, with sauteed green pepper strips cooked in the same pan with the steak. Black coffee, lemon-infused water.

That was a big, filling breakfast. Should carry me to dinner time no problem.

I know - someone should revoke my keto card.

I’m going to be out of town for a few days and don’t want to buy groceries right before I leave. Cooked the last 4 slices out of the package yesterday, which my wife and I split for our breakfasts.

Friday will be a driving day so I probably won’t eat until I get to the destination in the evening.

Thank you @CrackerJax! With the exception of a minor hiccup where I took a wrong turn and found myself en route to the Isle of Sheppey on the way home, the drive was successful! :laughing::rofl:
