Sorry it took me so long to respond! No, no sorbitol.
What did you Keto today?
Sous vide beef cheeks! Salt and pepper, vacuum seal and drop in 155 degrees hot tub time machine for 24 to 36 hours. Pour out the juices and boil to reduce. Strain through a coffee filter and pour over the shredded meat!
Make omelettes, tacos etc.
Cow and pig in a blanket dusted with Togurashi. Teton Waters Ranch Jalapeno cheddar beef and pork brat wrapped in Carlshead dough and dusted with togurashi. These did not suck.
This looks like my perfect ratio of fat/protein to veggie… looks divine!

Ernest, Wonderful strategy with eggs. I want to eat them too but always screw up frying and can’t do too many hard boiled. A naive question if I may. When steaming how is it done? How long to get them to the consistency that you like for frying them later? Thanks in advance for your help Mel
Have you guys been hearing about the Naked Egg Taco’s from Taco Hell? I saw a couple vids last night where they took off potatoes and the nacho cheese and thought they were good to go… Turns out, not so much. The egg alone has 6 carbs in it! Leave it to Taco Hell to mess up a good thing! So I tried making my own this morning. I’m definitely going to work on my technique and honestly picking up and eating it isn’t going to happen. But it was good!
I already had some cooked sausage and bacon, so I heated it up.
My fried egg wasn’t too pretty. I think I’ll try 2 eggs next time for one larger “taco.”
Ok, so regarding food lessons from childhood…

@circesdad bring enough water to not touch the eggs to a boil. Place the eggs in a steaming basket, cover pot and steam.
8 minutes = poached like consistency
10 minutes = solid white, soft yolk
12 minutes = hard boiled eggs.
When time is up, drop them in ice water to stop cooking.
I like 10 minutes
