Best dinner ever In South Africa we have a thing called skilpadjies. It’s lamb liver wrapped in a net of fat that basically melts when it cooks. Pre keto me never even tried these. Liver… Gross.
I am slightly anaemic and once a month (lol) I crave iron like crazy. Almost to a vampiric level. So this is making me so happy right now
All the quarantine crumpet pictures were making me jealous. So I made my own. 4 eggs, 4oz cream cheese, ½ cup almond flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tbsp erythritol and some orange zest. Blended in a jug with a stick blender and then fried. I used a bit of fresh orange juice and butter as a syrup. Not sticky keto but ♀️
My husband’s version of eggs on “toast” for lunch. #keto #lowcarb #lchf #bantingdiet #banting #lunch #eggs #socialdistancing #lockdown #covid_19 #stayhome (at Pretoria, South Africa) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_Z5A7FAGLl/?igshid=1ozf06tgjhtah
Yesterday was a pamper day that involved taking time off to play Steam games, watch LOTR and Poirot, read my book(s), have amazing steak green beans and gem squash dinner and then a full blown DIY Spa night. Treating myself was amazing and we should all do it more often #keto #lowcarb #lchf #bantingdiet #banting #dinner #steak #spaday #diyspa #selfcare #selfcareday #socialdistancing #lockdown #covid_19 #stayhome https://www.instagram.com/p/B_CH3ZrAj0X/?igshid=dyfqksqw1gfk
Fondue night in our garden. We have been meaning to do fondue again for a while (like, years) so we decided to do it during lockdown. We had all the stuff. It’s a oil fondue and I precooked the veg to save time and be a little healthier. And we had two sauces. It’s outside because waide says it makes the house stink so I decided to make it fancy. (I’m even wearing a dress) #lockdown #stayhome #staysane #datenight #fairylights #fondue #fonduetime #keto #lowcarb #bantingdiet #lchf #southafrica (at Die Wilgers) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-5B4ftANg5/?igshid=xbxd6ow1txa9
Pizza bowl for lunch This is literally a combination of anything that needs to be used up in the fridge work cheese over it. And sour cream. #keto #lowcarb #lchf #bantingdiet #banting #dinner #cucumber #salad #socialdistancing #lockdown #covid_19 #stayhome #staypril (at Pretoria, South Africa) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-rYPYIg2tH/?igshid=132g55ue5gswg
We had leftover pork belly so we shredded it and added it to a stir fry with a bit of soya sauce. I don’t like stir fry… This I can eat until forever. #keto #lowcarb #lchf #bantingdiet #banting #dinner #stirfry #porkbelly #pork #chinesefood #socialdistancing #lockdown #covid_19 #stayhome https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Xf6_jAycV/?igshid=fueh26qw5ob4
Fried eggs and pecan flour scones for lunch. The scone recipe is in my story highlights. They are amazing but if you don’t eat them immediately they get a little soggy. Solution: pop them under the grill for a minute or two. #keto #lowcarb #lchf #bantingdiet #banting #lunch #pecanflour #pecan #ketoscones #eggs #socialdistancing #lockdown #covid_19 #stayhome. https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Wwp9WAH8Q/?igshid=1f3lipm68xcwh
Woke up this morning feeling good (unfortunately that translates into unhealthy body image as “small”). I’m coming up on four years of this life style. I haven’t been 100% keto because well… Onion rings are life but I’m 80% keto and 100% low carb.
I went and had my A1C done last week and honestly I was expecting it to be in the 6’s because to summarise 2019 I would call it my “ohfuckit” year. But it was 5.2%
Anyway, hi. Here’s my face. Have a great Saturday.
