That sounds pretty insubstantial for a keto meal--it's certainly not representative.Quote:

Homemade spaghetti, salad and garlic bread.
Yeah, in this house that would be a side dish. Where's the protein and the fat? If that's all I got to eat, I wouldn't be eating keto, either.Quote:

Baked tofu cubes and roasted vegetables over rice with peanut sauce. It's on my favorites list to do routinely but requires some extra prep time.
Eggplant parm.
Curried red lentil "stew" cooked with coconut milk, sweet potatoes and cauliflower. Served over brown rice. Salad. Trying to eat less animals.
I’ve been well enough to do some things at home - so about 3-4 times a week I make something in the kitchen. (Husband does all the grocery shopping for me. It’s awesome.) I’m enjoying getting back into the simple healthy habits I had in the 80s. Being at home accommodates this. Bright side of my situation.
I made this one a few weeks ago, and again today. It’s a winner. We like it with taco chips.

Steve - I’m wondering if this would be keto approved?
Locally sourced artisanal jalapeno Havarti cheese surrounded by wild yeast leavened baked wheat dough seared in grandma's cast iron pan. (yes, I'm having a grilled cheese on sourdough, but the cheese is soooo delicious that saying grilled cheese wouldn't be doing it justice.)
red clam chowder
Last night was an Amy's shepherds pie.
We had a stressful day so went back to the drive-in for another fish basket. I think fish and chips is kind of the high point of fast food.
If you mean the bean-and-corn salad recipe you posted, at 23 net grams of carbs per serving, it would be okay as-is for someone doing One Meal A Day/intermittent fasting.Quote:

Thai green curry with chicken.
Homemade chicken noodle soup
Dinner tonight will be Thai. We were booked to go to a B&B in rural Minnesota, and figured early on that we'd be OK for a couple of nights in our own room and with breakfasts dropped off outside the room. But with a four hour trip to get there (pit stops) and not a lot to do but drive around (we didn't want to be poking around inside cramped gift shops and county historical museums -- if they're open) and the flareup in COVID-19 cases, particularly in outstate MN, we just thought better of the whole thing. We're staying home.
So we'll honor the desire for a change in scenery by taking a short drive and then picking up takeout dinner. Staycation it is.
Last night was hamburgers, tater tots and salad. Tonight is pasta and a hot sandwich from domino’s.
Meatloaf and roasted carrots 🥕
I was going to add rice also, but ran out of energy. Less carbs so it’s a win win.
My favourite for dinner is noodles. It's so easy to make and so tasty. I have a great julienne vegetable peeler so I julienne zucchini and carrot easily with that. I love sometimes to difersfiy and add some more veggies like corn, mushrooms etc.
Taco Bell.
Pulled need-to-be-used veggies from the fridge and some pantry items and now have cheese-y butternut squash and seasoned mashed cauliflower *soup*, and a chickpea, swiss chard, spinach, and roasted red pepper soup on the stove. Choices!
Butternut squash is baking now and will be served with butter.
We took a trip to Lowe's this afternoon and stopped at our favorite fish market, which is across the street, so we're having fresh salmon in a honey balsamic reduction sauce, fingerling potatoes and broccoli florets.
Salami and cream cheese roll ups and a salad.
Grilled cheese and soup today.
Black bean and rice burrito and a refried bean tostada.
Macaroni salad that is 50% veggies. All sliced finely. (My back hurts now but my time in the kitchen is now about 45 minutes before I have to lie down. Progress!)
Leftovers tonight. Keto chili tomorrow. Always a hit in our house.
Leftover tonight. Busy slicing a couple pounds of apples for the dehydrator and then making tortillas.
I ordered a pepperoni pizza from Dominos. I have very plebeian tastes in pizza. :D Don't do this very often.
Stuffed grape leaves and a clementine. I am thinking I should eat more vitamin C with cold and flu season upon us. I am also taking zinc and an Airborne daily.
Pork loin was BOGO Wednesday. Hubster smoked 18# today. OMG it is fabulous and we've got lots for the freezer and future meals.
I defrosted 2 bags of green beans I stocked up in early April when the world cried food would vanish. I mixed in a can of Cr of Mushroom soup, 2/3c milk, a few tsp of soy sauce and 2 big handfuls of grated cheddar. I melted 3T butter and mixed in 1/2c panko crumbs and sprinkled over the top. Baked 350 30 minutes and then broil for 4m.
Hubster makes the best Bourbon BBQ sauce.
YUMMERS!
DW and I decided we're going to get takeout once a week from a local indy restaurant to help them get through our second lockdown. Tonight's dinner was from a soul-food-inspired restaurant that opened a couple of months ago. Very nice people but, boy, they didn't have their act together on the order. The food was tasty, though. DW had chicken wings and a peach cobbler dessert; I had collard greens and a chicken/brie/spinach sandwich minus the bread (I explained I was eating keto so would they leave off the bread? They did. Then they filled the rest of the container with tater tots *sigh*). Good thing DW likes tater tots...
Tacos with homemade sourdough tortillas.
Croissants that I bought for Thanksgiving but that DS pointed out will expire on Tuesday.
I'm embarrassed to admit I had onion rings for dinner.
So? Onion rings are YUMMY! Frozen or from a good carryout place? :DQuote:

I am going to going to have stuffing by itself someday soon. My mom gave me some she mixed up to bake since we will not be together on Thanksgiving. Yesterday was her birthday and we got together on her patio. Temps were in the thirties and they put a small space heater out but it didn't do much. This is going to be a hard winter and I'm not talking the weather.
I have been so miserable all weekend. I think I have an abscess and will need a root canal. It is especially frustrating because I tried to be proactive and went to the dentist twice, but everything looked OK and nothing showed on x-ray. I could feel that something wasn't right, but couldn't even tell exactly what tooth it was coming from. He did the tapping test Fri, and that must have really awakened something, because I woke up with so much pain on Sat morning (at least now I know exactly which tooth is the problem). So I am living on grits, scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, cream of rice and smoothies ( with a generous helping of Tylenol, Motrin and Orajel). I will be calling my dentist first thing when they open.
