    Batch two: First two pics is lomo saltado - Peruvian steak stir fry (fiancés plate) The other three are from a second cook out I had where I made carne asada tacos with a homemade tomatillo sauce, avocado sauce, and not in the pic but a red guajillo sauce. Also in the pic is cotija cheese and crema mexicana. I have more pics but I'll leave it at this lol I've also went to a few AMAZING restaurant while I've been away but as usual I'm still always asked if I even liked the food because I can barely fit anything in. And HAPPY BIRTHDAY @Starwarsandcupcakes!!!! ❤️

    I finally finished going through the 58 pages of deliciousness I missed and all I can say is WOW 😋 everything looked sooo good! I have pork skewers, an iced skinny chai latte, salads, chilis, sushi, tofu, steak bites, and lots more stuck in my head. Here are a few dishes I made while I been away: First 3 pics are from the summer when we had a cookout. I made rice, chicken wings, a rack of ribs, bbq pork, steak, hot dogs, and two types of macaroni salad with tuna and smoked ham. I still mostly stick to eating just meat and make regular sides for everyone else. (1st pic is fiancés plate) Pan seared salmon salad (my plate and this was an all day meal) Veggie and cheese omelet (my plate and something like this typically gets me full until dinner but I'm picking at it all day) Ground turkey veggie wraps (my plate and remember I finished it all - lighter than what it looks). Oatmeal banana pancakes with sugar free syrup (my plate and get me full until dinner). Shrimp and squash salad and I believe I used trader joes green goddess dressing for this (my plate). Chocolate covered berries I made for a party. Colorful ones were for the kiddies and the bottom for the adults. I covered the bottom ones with coconut, choco chips, and walnuts.

    Hi everyone!! OMGGGGG..... UM WOW! I sure missed a tonnnnnnn since the last time I logged in! So sorry for going MIA ... a lot has happened with me in the many months I've been gone but I'm so happy to see some "familiar faces" and to be back. I cant wait to go through EVERY SINGLE POST I missed! I hope you've been well and happy holidays! I truly missed you all! ❤️❤️❤️

    I spent the last two weeks cooking for friends but nothing really bariatric friendly. I'll usually take like two bites of whatever I make and always make sure I have some kind of app or side dish that I can eat that way no one notices that I'm not eating what I made them. All pics are the fiancés plate or a friends plate. Featured dishes: Tallarin Verde (Creamy basil & spinach pasta dish) Kimchi fried rice w/ pork Tallarin saltado tipo chifa (Peruvian/Chinese veggie lo mein) Arroz chaufa de mariscos (Peruvian seafood fried rice) Green enchiladas General tso tofu Veggie and pork stir fry The veggie and pork stir fry is an example of what I make for myself while everyone is eating the "regular" dish I made. I usually just alter it in some way or craze on something else I prepared. I still find joy in cooking and watching everyone else eat :)

    Late dinner featuring fiancé’s plate: Seco de carne de res aka cilantro beef stew. Ate one piece of beef and half a potato and I was stuffed. Tried getting fancy with the plating but I think it looks like I was trying too hard lol

    That Char Sui and Bao looks amazinggggggg! You killed it! And you awoken my cravings lol I haven't had Char Sui in years and Bao since right before surgery. I will admit though that I'm not familiar with making the dough for bao. What's the difference between the Chinese style and Filipino? Also, I think we were best friends or even sisters in another life because my dream has also been to own a cafe with a focus on Latin American pastries and lunch (roast meat sandwiches, empanadas, etc) But you're right, its a ton of work. Both my uncle and cousin own their own restaurants and they practically live there. Maybe one day when we are both up for it we can co-own!

    Food from the past few days and weekend: * Veggie and Turkey hot dog omelette w/ keto toast (finally got my hands on some!) * More Pho *Chocolate chia seed pudding *Oven roasted chicken, salad and mashed potatoes *Steak, Mac and cheese, and sautéed mushrooms and onions (This was a fail. Went out to Longhorns for the first time since surgery, took two bites of steak and was full. Went home to eat the rest and threw it up. I didn’t even bother with the Mac and cheese, my bf ate that) *Ole extreme wellness Turkey and fat free cheese wrap (Thank you @GreenTealael for the recommendation and @ms.sss for helping me find them!) * 1/2 of a grilled chicken blt sandwich on keto bread Side note: I obviously did not finish each plate. I usually over serve myself, take a couple bites, and give it to my bf or save it to eat the next day. I tend to have a lot of leftovers 😕

    Cambodian! She learned to make it from her bf who is Lao and he learned from his Vietnamese friend. It was some of the best Pho I've ever had ❤️ I'm looking forward to next month. They will be coming over again and we will be making Korean BBQ. I'm currently looking for a table grill on Amazon.

    One of my friends came over yesterday and cooked me Pho 🍜 So much Pho that I will be eating it for a few days, and I couldn’t be happier! 😩 This one is beef and meatball. I later went back and topped it with siracha, roasted garlic, and hoisin sauce.

    WOWWWWWWWW! That came out absolutely perfect!! Seriously! You can really tell the meat is super soft, and that skin .... my mouth is watering just thinking about it 🤤🤤 Using pineapple on the pork reminds me of Cuban style pernil where they use sour oranges. I need to try making one this way! Was it sweet? But you're right, its a ton of work just because you have to keep an eye on it. I believe the last time I made one I through it in the oven covered for 7 hours and then uncovered for about 3 so I can only Imagine what 19 hours did to it ❤️ Cant wait to see how the estofado de res comes out!

    Vday dinner was Korean food. I definitely indulged! Apps were Korean chicken wings and pork and veggie dumplings and my dish was braised pork belly. I wish I remembered to take an after pic. I was able to eat 3 wings, 3 dumplings, and one piece of pork belly. Ate more when I got home.

    Omg thank you thank you thank you! So I’m not able to order via Walmart or Amazon, it’s showing out of stock and not sure if it will be back but when I clicked your instacart link and entered my zip code it showed that one of my local grocery stores, Price Rite sells it. I’m going this weekend!

    I’ve been trying to find these wraps ever since I saw you post about them and I can’t seem to get them anywhere I went to Walmart and target and they were all out. I also saw this YouTube video on low carb Keto wraps and one of the wraps that were tested were these and they did the best as far as keeping you in ketosis. Minute 8:33 is where she tests the Ole brand I also went on the hunt for more keto bread from aldi and it was wiped out. I went to 3 Aldi’s ...
