I went food shopping today and by the time I came home, unloaded the groceries, put them away in the fridge and freezer, I was totally pooped.. There was NO way I could even think of cooking supper.. Yup, I ordered a pizza.. A large vegetarian with thin crust.. Now we have enough for supper another time as it had 8 large slices.. Each 2 slices is a good meal.. Half of the pizza is left over for another meal..
Pizza. Don't get me started, I'm drooling already. The closest thing I've allowed myself for a while is: a slice of toasted previously frozen bread (both freezing and toasting are supposed to help alter the carbs to slow metabolizing them) with unsalted tomato paste spread on it, a few herbs sprinkled on and a slice of Gouda or Mozzarella. Then a quick trip in the microwave to melt that just a bit. Actually not bad. No pizza, but with all that I've cut back it counts as a treat here.
When I was on induction low carb, I made my own pizza at home... I took some mozzarella cheese, shredded it, put it on a cookie sheet in a circle, added to it some pizza sauce, some sliced mushrooms, and green pepper slices.. I baked it till the cheese made a sort of a crust and.... VOILA... a pizza....
Turkey sausages on the BBQ... Even if it is cold out, I still BBQ.. As long as it isn't windy.. Baked potato, pureed carrots, peas... Clementine, and pineapple bits.. Pot of tea....
B/S chicken breast pan fried on a honey/garlic sauce..... Baked potato, steamed broccoli, pureed carrots... A banana for dessert.. Pot of tea...........................
I made a meatloaf using minced chicken last night.. I added some ketchup and herbs and spices with some breadcrumbs and it came out very good.. Naturally there is some left over for another meal for us.. A large baked potato that we shared, peas.. A banana sliced, pineapple tidbits, blueberries, and clementine segments made a sort of a fruit salad for dessert.. Pot of tea.....
I made these a few days ago ….i call them eggplant pizzas @Steve North They are sliced slightly cooked 3/4 inch eggplant …then topped with a little pasta sauce , a bit of cooked bacon / oinion / tomato/ capsicums parsley and topped with grated cheese they were delicious ,and most of most of the ingredients are from my garden with the exception of the bacon and cheese
I was never a lover of eggplant mainly because I don't know what to do with it.. This looks good, but does the eggplant end up mushy??
We had a broccoli and cheese with sausage scrambled egg this morning, and it was a good breakfast and filled us both up.
Supper tonight was chicken thighs bone in, dry marinated and on the hot BBQ they went.. A large baked potato that we shared, steamed carrots pureed, and steamed broccoli.. A banana with yogurt.. Pot of tea.......
