I'm pretty sure the first is a pickled tree-person, the second is possibly supposed to be a dinosaur burger, and the last one is a protein shipping boat.
They've got quite the appetite and are a very creative chef.
A fucked up mushroom omelette that decided on its own to turn into scrambled eggs halfway out of the pan for breakfast. Coffee included. For dinner, some pretty nice leftover spaghetti & meatballs I made last night. Just water for a beverage. I don't really bother with lunch.
my homemade fried rice, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, ~4oz smoked beef roast, w/Hong Kong sauce corn on the cob and water
one avocado with pico in a course guacamole with some tortilla chips and a beer
That's pretty much every day eats for me. Sometimes I skip the eggs for just toast. Sometimes I skip the beer for water. Lunch is either chicken or beef, is mostly rice, and is mostly a large bake I do where everything for 8-14 days is cooked at one time and I reheat daily. It is good enough to eat daily. My techniques are the result of a couple of years of tweaking.
For lunch today I had the same thing as breakfast except sub the margarine for a slice of Velveeta cheese and the chicken for 2 slices if honey smoked turkey. Also, 1oz of snyders of Berlin bbq chips
(11 WW points)
For dinner I will have a Stouffers lasagna with meat sauce and 3 slices of 100% whole wheat bread... I might put some margarine on them
(12 points, 13 or 14 if I add margarine, depending on the amount)
Brunch: Asian pork and rice
Dinner: Korean hibachi (an irresponsible amount of meat) with traditional sides (kimchi, broccoli, japchae, bean sprouts, etc.)
An Italian-ish sandwich (ham, salame, lettuce, tomato, cheese, giardiniera, oil+seasonings, and mayo, on wheat) with peperonicini-flavored kettle chips/crisps
Pork carnitas "street" tacos with borracho black beans
I have a tooth infection and can't be seen until Thursday.
I have had 3 cups of luke warm coffee and a glass of water.
if I had some soup or broth I would try that but my cupboard is about bare these days as I live paycheck to paycheck.
If you have cloves in your pantry and a spare teabag, you can make a little spice pouch snus that will numb the area and take a little of the pain away. Ibuprofen only does so much, especially for teeth stuff, and clove can give a little extra relief. Not a doctor, just someone that never had insurance til recently.
I only eat two meals a day. I guess I'll say it was breakfast that I skipped since I don't eat start cooking or myself until noon. For some reason I think of it as breakfast still, though.
Sardine guacamole toast on scratch-made-during-my-lunch-hour keto toast. (Less impressive than it sounds, but I'm proud of it.) I eat it for my first meal basically every day. (Edit: Oh, and I forgot to mention the hot rooibos earl grey tea.)
I haven't eaten it yet, but I've got one andouille sausage and a disgusting (in a good way!) amount of roasted brussles sprouts in the oven now. (Edit: And another cup of rooibos earl grey tea.)
It's a little sparse because I'm trying to lose weight. Operate at a calorie deficit, basically. It's all pretty low-carb, not that I'm big into keto or anything. I'm a little closer to paleo and have had tons of dietary restrictions for upwards of 15 years now. But there are some things I eat that paleo folks would tend to recommend against like chia seeds (which are legumes.)
If folks want the bread recipe I mentioned, I'll be happy to share. I'm irrationally proud of it and have been evolving it for many years. I measure almost none of the ingredients at this point, but I can certainly estimate.
I’m interested in the sardine guac, do you just essentially add sardines to a regular guacamole recipe? I really enjoy sardines and would love to find more ways to incorporate them into meals.
Also curious about what goes into your keto toast!
I'm afraid I didn't make the guac. And I just lay the sardines on top of the guac.
But! I'll give you the whole recipe exactly how I make it (estimating measurements).
1 rounded tbsp of raw sunflower seeds
2 rounded tbsp of chia seed
1 rounded tbsp of hemp seed
1/8 tsp of baking soda
1 tsp of ground turmeric
garlic salt to taste -- probably 1/8 to 1/4 tsp
about the same amount of garlic powder
1-2 dashes of black pepper
1 tsp dried sage
1 tsp dried thyme
1 rounded tbsp of blanched almond flour
1 large egg
2-3 tbsp of water
Mix all the above together in a ramekin or paper ice cream up with a flat bottom and straight sides. About 4" wide is optimal. With the water, just add water until it's just batter-y and not solid. You want runny, but not entirely liquid.
Add 2 tsp of white vinegar, mix a little more but not too much. You don't want the vinegar/baking soda reaction to go to completion and all the CO2 to escape before you get it into the microwave.
In my 1250-watt microwave, it takes 2 minutes and 50 seconds. I usually use disposable 16Oz paper ice cream tubs. If you're using something stonewear, it might take more time. To see if it's done, you'll want to take it out and look at the bottom of the loaf.
Once it's done, carefully cut the loaf into two slices. Toast to taste. Spread guac (the guac I use comes in 2Oz containers, so I use one ounce on each half) and lay one 3.75Oz (or at least that's the size I get) tin worth of sardines (I use the ones in olive oil, but the ones in water would be fine) on top. I don't mash the sardines or anything. Just lay them in rows to cover the toast. Then juice one wedge of lime or use one packet of crystalized lime like the stuff by the company True Citrus sells. Sprinkle over the top as evenly as you can.
And then eat!
And have rooibos earl grey tea with it if you like. :)
And, yeah. I really like sardines too. I got a craving for them a month or two back after not having any for quite a few years and decided to incorporate them into my guacamole toast breakfasts.
It's just before 8am here, so: oatmeal, tbd (maybe Cincinnatti-style chili over genmai), and tbd (probably grilled chicken, genmai, veg, and various pickles). I don't typically snack.
Noon update: yep, cincy-style chili over genmai with freshly-shredded cheddar cheese and raw red onion. Had a few chocolate chips (fresh out of the freezer) for something sweet. Dinner is probably going to be something very small as I ate too much and am not really moving a lot today.
Dinner update: we had to go shopping so I got a 10-piece sushi set (and stole two of my wife's tekka hosomaki) that was discounted for dinner and had a couple bites of chocolate icecream for dessert
Breakfast: Mushroom, spinach and onion omelette. One piece of avocado toast. Lemonade.
Lunch: Cheese and ham sandwich on rye bread, two boiled eggs,half a cup of cherries as dessert. A diet Coke.
Dinner: Chicken broth with carrots, celery, potatoes, zucchini and mirlington squash sprinkled with tajín. One serving of gouda cheese. Sparkling water.
Well yesterday, coffee for breakfast, a bean burrito with chips and an apple for lunch, a half a steak and beans burrito with chips and a Paloma for supper
Today coffee for breakfast, the other half of the supper burrito for lunch with another apple, and either skip supper if not hungry, or black beans & potato picadillo for supper.
I eat twice a day, usually not thrice. Not usually so many burritos it just worked out that way this week. Aim for 2,000 kcal or less, but not too much less.
