Hot dogs, sweet potatoes, and a tomato. Weird, but it was delish.

yum!

I had a grilled sirloin steak with garlic butter on top. Had some sauteed broccoli on the side.

last night was-
parmesan broiled Cod
green salad with roasted bell pepper and vinaigrette
sweet potato fries for the fella

last night...
peanuts and cheese

cheddar quiche
mashed cauli

I might be the only lowcarber of all time who LOVES cauli, but never bothered to try the famous "mock mashed potatoes" for 9 years of lowcarbing, until tonight.
i loved them, and my boyfriend who feels very "meh" about cauli LOVED them.
WOOT! will definitely be on our list now.
He loves veggies, but only like 5 kinds, which won't fly now that we live together! Time to expand those horizons.

Sauteed sliced chicken breasts with bacon crumbles and parmesan cheese. Broccoli with butter on side. Was one of my first dinners I've prepared on this diet. It was amazing.

Good for you, Robin!

My hubby when we met and were eating out told me he didn't like mushrooms, so I never used them in meals I made for him.
Then one day I was short of salad-y stuff and added a few sliced raw mushrooms to his plate.
It turns out he doesn't like overcooked mushrooms cooked in water - he loves eating them raw and when I fry them in butter.

So sometimes it was the cooking method that turned people off foods, not the foods themselves.

I made a big batch of a new (to me) Chicken Soup the other day, made with diced chicken thighs, LC veggies, HWC, chicken stock, seasonings and lots of roasted garlic. I didn't much care for it. The roasted garlic was just a bit too potent. Last night I had a bowl (after it had sat in the fridge for 2 days). It was much better. No, it was actually quite good. The garlic flavor had mellowed out and it was very tasty.



I was never much of a cauliflower fan for most of my life. Yes - I'd have a few bits in a salad or put a few bits in when steaming broccoli -- but more often than not, I'd never get trough the entire head before it spoiled. We didn't buy it very often.

But I must say, now that I am learning what you can do with it -- cauliflower is quickly becoming my best friend. I use it so much in our daily family meals that I go through 2 or 3 heads a week. I had no idea it could be so versatile. I've made a cheesy mashed cauliflower that is very good, I do 'riced' cauliflower for stir-fried dishes & an LC form of mac and cheese. And cut into little cubes, it makes a great potato substitute in soups. Cauliflower is now an essential for me and on the top of my shopping list.

Low carb Pho soup

I use the 0 carb shirataki noodles, 0 carb beef broth, thinly sliced beef strips, and the only carbs come from a few diced green onions and a handful of bean sprouts. Almost tastes like the real thing

Lettuce wrapped bacon cheeseburgers with mayo! So good.

roasted duck with a side of roasted pork and broccoli followed by a serving of strawberry no bake cheesecake from the induction friendly list

cabbage and ground lamb in a tomato sauce I love this stuff its like a deconstructed cabbage roll =)
