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 …

Best Supper EVER???

If it isn’t, it is sure close! Pete made supper tonight. I tried, but couldn’t quite accomplish it (see my chat note from earlier today), so I talked him through, telling him how I would have done things. This was a supper made up of 4 out of my 10 favorite foods: pork, cabbage, squash, …

August 26, 2021 Supper

I started eating low carb/high fat in 2004; after losing 90# in the first 5 months and NOT liking the results, I walked a balance ever since so as to get the health benefits without the weight loss. And within the last year or so I started intermittent fasting (18-hour daily fast) and increasing my …

A Quick Nighttime Note…

…because it’s too long to paste into my chat! This is what I just posted on my favorite Mastodon instance and thought I’d share here too…it’s kind of a followup to what I’d written in my chat earlier: So Pete texted me earlier that he couldn’t find a room for less than $200/night . He …

Sometimes A Supper is JUST Right!

I’m not a food photographer, although you probably guessed that as soon as you saw this photo… What’s on my plate is roasted chicken thighs, cauliflower, and asparagus, plus air-fried sweet potato medallions. Details below! I’ve never used our air fryer for sweet potatoes before, so I was flying by the seat of my pants. …

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 …

Tonight’s Delicious Supper!

I slivered about a quarter of an onion and put it in a hot pan with a little oil while I cubed some pork tenderloin. After adding the pork I stirred it around for a couple of minutes. When the onion was soft and the meat almost cooked through I added the leftover roasted cabbage …

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 …

Time With Family – May 9, 2021 – KY Trip Post 11

On Sunday we went to Gwen and Don’s new house for dinner, and to celebrate birthdays and Mother’s Day together. Extra crispy KFC was served (YUM!) along with Gwen’s FANTASTIC macaroni salad (YUM YUM YUM!!!) and a garden salad with our choices of toppings. (On the lower right are Pete’s temura shrimp from Costco, he …
