[Brewbuzzard]

Finished product - actually one I made a few weeks back but I expect this one will look the same!

If that doesn't make you hungry nothing will.

 

[Bklmt2000]

Made some wings today.

Prepped, tossed in a heavy load of Penzey's BBQ 3000 rub, and contemplating life while the oven preheats (they sat in the fridge, and not on the countertop, while the oven heated up):

Loaded onto a stainless cooling rack set in a rimmed baking sheet, and ready for an hour-long nap in the oven:

Sauced, plated, and ready for devouring:

They ate good. Only ate half (trying to watch my calories a bit); the other half will meet its end as tomorrow's lunch.

You forgot the naan bread. Love the spices. Butter chicken is one of my favorites.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Hearts were only $1.59 lb.

Nay nay. Last picture shows the garlic butter for the naan.

Ten pictures would be obnoxious.

Grilled a couple of skirt steaks. Served with a chimicurri sauce I made out of cilantro and parsley and garlic. Man that was good. Also, snap peas and roasted onions with rosemary.

As happens often, no plated pictures.

Chicken tika served with salad, basmati rice, and garlic naan.

They are. Marinate overnight to make them awesome. Recipe here: https://keviniscooking.com/roasted-onions/

Skirt steak and roasted onions. Mmm. Get about as much respect as Rodney Dangerfield, but have way more taste! [emoji16]

Oh Merry!! Wow!

If I press the "like" button 10 times can I get a piece of THAT??

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Fly over and I’ll make some coffee to go with it.

Sadly I don't fly but that's a sweet offer!

You could fly it HERE and I'll make the Sumatran French pressed coffee for you....

Same to ya!

I made keto-friendly kung pao chicken with cashews last night. It was decent, but needed more flavor in the sauce. I'll punch it up a bit next time.

Chicken & Veggie Miso Soup.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Cheese and meatball pie. Yup homemade meatballs, sauce and crust.

Chicken & Veggie Miso Soup.

YUM that looks really good and relatively easy to keto-fy! Thanks for the recipe!

One minor suggestion, next time you buy fish sauce, look for RedBoat instead of 3crabs. If it's not available, look for one that has the fewest ingredients. Ideally anchovies and salt.

*Opinion: this minor change makes a noteworthy improvement in flavor.

Absolutely. For meals use Redboat save the 3crabs for kimchi or ditch it all together. MegaChef is ok too for the money. Its Thai fish sauce. There is another from Vietnam called "something" 60n, Its good but its not better than regular Redboat 40n.

 

[S-Met]

MegaChef is my backup, but the taste is not as clean as RedBoat.

The 3 crab is ok but I won't buy unless it is the only available option.

Will do, thanks. Couldn't find the usual fish sauce that I normally pick up so I thought I would try the 3crabs.

Yesterday was the first time I made the recipe, and it was awesome. Next batch I will leave the cabbage out and add it to the serving bowl, and maybe heat alittle in the microwave. That way leftovers doesn't have any wilted cabbage. We also air fried some wonton wrappers to put into the soup.

Made Crusty Italian Sandwich Rolls last night to go with an Italian Beef Sandwich recipe. New to baking bread but they were great.

Did chocolate chip cookies in the middle of it all. The Sandwiches were phenomenal, and a lot of that was because of the dipping jus reduced. Beef done in the Instant Pot, btw.

 

[TwistedGray]

Coconut oil for future bakes

 

[Priti Ranjan]

Why don't you go with some noodles?

 

[Temptd2]

@Travis those rolls look fantastic! Yummy sandwiches too. I LOVE me some French-dip sandwiches. Sadly not on my keto plan but every now and then I sneak one in!

I've made these, too, per Passedpawn's recommendation. They're good : )
