Wife has been wanting me to make her Stir-Fry, but then mentioned she took Hamburger out and needed to use it. So I asked if she would like to use that instead of Steak? Said she didn’t care, that she would try it. So I made a make-shift Hamburger Stir-Fry, just adding some stuff to it. (Hamburger, Scallions, Broccoli, Bean Sprouts, Baby Corn, Brown Swerve and SoySauce, plus some Worcestershire sauce. Plus some Cheese, Pepperoni and Shrimp. Wasn’t too bad and would have had seconds, but we still had some left-over Dungeness Crab, so pulled that out as well. We shared the plate, plus the Pups love seafood, both Shrimp and Crabs) Also ate a couple Sweet Italian Sausage.
The Chaffle craze is still in full force at my place!
This chaffle was made with a layer of cheddar cheese, then egg mixed with heavy cream, sliced scallions/spring onions/diced ham, salt and pepper, then another layer of cheese on top.
Heaven! Roast chicken salad, tomato, lettuce and avocado got sandwiched between two of these beauties.
Thanks! It came out pretty good.
I used a “mini-blender”, kinda like the “bullet” things to mix the Greek dressing and the sundried tomatoes.
Oh no! did you get to enjoy at least one meal there before they took it away?!
It’s a smiley meat face left over from last night’s dinner, and some pork parcels. Had a late-ish breakfast again so I’m hoping this sees me through til dinner. I’m trying this new thing where I listen to my hunger signals rather than just ‘eat cause I want to’
Ground beef, 2 x kiolbassa and another (the last) slice of hogshead cheese**.
** sorry, the HHC was a little camera shy … or I ate it before I took the pic … don’t judge me
I am going to go back to OMAD, so there may be less pictures.
Just another regular breakfast.
Nothing to be proud of today! Took my car in for it’s 1st MOT! Then off to a study day!
Took a thermal dish of meats and cheese. Came home and just felt lazy… so … 2 tsp peanut butter and this mini portion of ragu with parmesan
Had this today for lunch;
Sausage and Cauliflower Bake (Keto)
Delicious, moreish and rich - this low-carb sausage and cauliflower bake comes in at 6.6g carbs per serving.
Ingredients
17.64 oz cauliflower florets (2.2 cups)
2.29 oz full-fat cream cheese (approx. 1/3 cup)
salt and white pepper
4 pork sausages
1.41 oz Gruyere cheese finely grated
Pink Himalayan Salt
freshly ground black pepper
chives snipped to garnish
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C / 390°F.
Cook the cauliflower florets in a large pot of salted, boiling water on the stove top until completely tender and very soft. Drain well in a colander and leave for a few minutes. (Failing to leave it to ‘steam off’ may result in a watery mixture after mashing.) Tip the cauliflower into a bowl or return to the (dry) pan and add the cream cheese. Mash well, then season generously with salt and white pepper. Set aside.
In the meantime, place the sausages in a greased roasting dish and bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20-25 minutes or until colored and crispy.
Once the sausages have finished cooking, remove them from the oven (do not turn the oven off) and allow to cool slightly before chopping into smaller pieces. Do not discard any rendered fat: instead add a tablespoon of the rendered fat that ran from the sausages and stir into the mashed cauliflower. Add the chopped sausages to the cauliflower and stir well to combine.
Transfer the mixture into a suitable-sized casserole dish (mine was 15 x 20cm and 5 cm deep / 6 x 8-in and 2-in deep) and cover with the grated Gruyere.
Bake until the cheese is crispy, approximately 15-20 minutes. (You can increase the oven temperature towards the end to get the cheese to really ‘gratin’.)
Season with Pink Himalayan Salt and freshly ground black pepper and garnish with plenty of freshly chopped chives.
