…it’s the texture! I’ve never been a fan of legumes. With the exception of refried beans, which I love. But on the left side of the image? Those are beans. I decided it isn’t the taste…well, you know the rest. A few months ago I got a can of cannellini beans and mashed ’em up …

Tasty Supper Idea – Beef & Cabbage
I had some things that needed to be used up today, including several roast beef “patties”- they taste like roast beef anyway, and are the consistency of canned tuna, then frozen together in patties which fall apart easily when they thaw – and a good-sized hunk of cabbage. So in my small casserole dish they …

Tasty Supper Ideas: Zucchini, Potatoes
This is a photo of last night’s supper, which included roast beef patties (something I got from the Amish store), roasted potato halves, and roasted zucchini halves. I would usually do the potatoes and zucchini as medallions, which is what I call it when I cut them into elongated circles before seasoning and roasting. I …

DINNER!!
This is the first time I’ve made chicken in the Ninja Foodi Digital Air Fry Oven. I set it at 400F for 15 minutes but it needed just a little more time, so 5 minutes at 350 did the trick. And it is delicious! I never got hungry today but at about 7:00 decided I …

Some Low Carb/LCHF Experimentation
First, I didn’t take any photos. I didn’t plan on writing about it, so didn’t think of it. Second, you can decide if these fit into the stricter definition of “keto” (which is what everybody calls low carb these days). If you’re doing actual keto, then the carrots may be a deal-breaker; if you’re doing …

BEANS!!!
I hate beans. I mean the starchy beans that have those skins on them that get stuck in my teeth. Like pinto, kidney, navy, and such. First of all those skins! They slide around and are hard to catch to chew and even then they get stuck between my teeth. Then, biting into a bean …

RECIPE: Easy Dipping Sauce (low carb)
2 Tbsp sugar-free peanut butter1 Tbsp SF Ginger Ale (Vernors*)¼ tsp. toasted sesame seeds½ tsp. SF sweetener (monkfruit*) *These are the kinds I used. Stir everything together until smooth. I used this for chicken but it would be tasty on almost any meat I think, or in a stir-fry maybe.
Vegan Supper Idea – Cheap, Easy, Fast!
I have used these packages as often as weekly as the starting place for Pete’s supper. Add a salad, some sliced tomatoes, some bread, or even nothing at all! Either way, it’s a cheap and easy way to make a complete meal!
Pork Zucchini Supper – Low Carb
This is quick – as was my meal, both to prepare, and to eat as it was SO delicious! (I didn’t take a photo, as it wasn’t particularly beautiful and I’m not a food stylist.) I had a pork steak thawed, and a zucchini that needed to be eaten, and I was very hungry and …

Ooooh, Gotta Try This Crust!
I found a recipe that I think Pete and I would both love, once I made some changes, but needed to find a bread-y crust-y recipe to wrap it up in. Yeah, that’s it – sort of along the lines of a calzone! It’s got to be something we can both eat, low in carbs …
