What did you Keto today?

Love the DIY snack packs.

Great idea! Speaking of sauce, for your pizza, wonder what everyone uses? Anyone with a good recipe? I’m highly allergic (throat closes) to tomatoes, plus their higher carb anyway, so I’ve been using a liberal coating of olive oil with garlic/parsley or an alfredo type sauce.

Seen other folks use sauerkraut, swiss cheese, and corned beef (like an open-face ruben) too.

Needed something quick and easy today, so 2 of the last mass-produced pre-made ā€œPC Prime Rib Burgersā€ from my freezer, with a couple slices of crispy bacon and a bunch of old cheddar on top. :slight_smile:

Greasy yummy goodness!!! :smiley:

The grease spot at the top is where I carried the stack of the other two burgers in (was a package of 4) - haven’t decided their fate yet…another day. :slight_smile:

And, yes, I had a salad first…gotta keep the liver happy. :slight_smile:

I did one similar with some smoked pork a while back, but I didn’t think to use smoked cheese too. Next time…

Hmm. You could try taking the spices from the ā€œexquisite pizza sauceā€ recipe, and making a bit of a pesto sauce with them. (the pizza sauce I use, I use this combination with 1/4 cup of the Hunt’s low carb pasta sauce).
Here’s the spices:
1 tsp garlic powder
3/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp dried marjoram
1/4 tsp dried basil
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
1/8 tsp dried red pepper flakes
(there’s also normally 3T of parmesan cheese in there)

Please share back what you come up with!! :slight_smile:

Are you alregic to canned/cooked tomatoes too? I’m allergic to raw, but I’m usually fine once they’re cooked.

Depending on the pizza toppings, either oil or Alfredo like you said, or a pesto works well too. A hollandaise or bernaise would work well and add even more fat.


(TJ Borden) #7002

Hmm… now I’m thinking an eggs Benedict pizza…

OR, actual eggs Benedict using small rounds of fat head pizza crust as the English muffin.


(E.O.) #7003

Anaphylactic allergic to soooooooo many foods, including all nightshades (tomatoes, eggplant, bell peppers, paprika, potatoes, etc.) Some of the folks allergic specifically to tomatoes seem to react to the citric acid used in the canning process (which as I understand it, comes from a chemical process involving black mold). Perhaps in your case–it helps with what causes the allergy for you? That eggs benedict pizza sounds wonderful!


(TJ Borden) #7004

Same here. Mine is to most fresh fruits and vegetables and most nuts. Generally it subsides, or at least greatly diminishes when I cook the veggies. I used to love eating melon (pre-keto) and figured it was worth the ā€œdiscomfortā€, until we figured out that ā€œdiscomfortā€ was a mild form of anaphylactic shock. Then my wife wouldn’t let me touch fruit anymore. At least it made that part of keto easy. I couldn’t eat it anyway.

I made this recipe for chicken cordon bleu. Turned out really good over some spinach!

I just spent about an hour checking out this thread. OMG who want to come and be my personal chef? For Keto compensation, of course! :slight_smile:
This is day 9 for me. I’m keeping it very simple but I see wonderful concoctions being created in my kitchen very soon!

Half a steak with butter & garlic cream cheese.

I know this isn’t the best place to ask this, but I don’t see a better one. Apologies in advance.
I am technologically challenged and I would love to join in on the food porn.
What is the easiest way for me to post photos on this forum from my android phone?


(Ashley) #7009

If you hit reply and look at the top bar of buttons with the B, I, smiley face etc. it’s the seventh icon looks like a retangle with a arrow on top. Hit that and it should say upload from device, click that and it should take you to your photo option on your phone to select photos on your phone.


(grace elizabeth) #7010

Thanks Ash,
I view this forum from my laptop and my photos are on my phone. I do know how to transfer them from phone to laptop, just wondering if I could go directly from phone to here.
Sorry I’m so clueless here.


(Ashley) #7011

That method I told you should put it right on from your phone. All you have to do is go to the website through your phone, sign it like you do on your laptop and then be able to do it as I mentioned.


(Central Florida Bob ) #7012

You can upload pictures from your laptop, since you read from your laptop. When I hit the box with up-arrow, I get two choices: From Your Device and From the Web - any photo sharing place. When I click on ā€œFrom your Deviceā€, it takes me to my computer; actually to the last directory I used when I shared a picture.

Or as Ash says, from your phone.


(grace elizabeth) #7013

Thank you both. Now I just need some good photos! I’m eating pretty basic these days…just had a big fat burger patty with cheddar melted on top and 2 pieces of bacon. Fat bomb for dessert. I’m full! Yay!
