The one that's made out of coconut meat only. I didn't know there are several kinds?

Ah, no I was wondering if you made the coconut butter yourself

[summerset 5,261]

No, it comes in a glass just like e. g. peanut or almond butter.

chicken sandwich without bun

I had a bite and began to feel restriction (drier protein) so the second pic is where I felt complete restriction (VSG) about 16 mins later I felt fullness (RNY). I saved the rest for later

I don’t know what to call it and it looks terrible but it’s basically lentil congee with onions, celery, zucchini, garlic, Tomato paste, and flax seed milk with vegetable bouillon cubes, Water, star anise, cinnamon sticks a little cumin and garlic and onion powder.

I topped it with a Parmesan turkey and Italian sausage meatball. I don’t have an after picture but I only ate about 4-5 tablespoons of it and a bite of the meatball (had a half of one to sample with the kids as they had them with bow tie Pasta and some of the roasted red pepper Soup as the sauce.)

This is about halfway through. It was a mix of red and diamonds radish slices (1lb each) with a sweet and spicy sauce (2T gochujang, 1T honey, 1/3 apple cider vinegar, 1/3 apple juice, and 1-2T Korean soy sauce). It reminds radish kimchi but cooked. Also, I’m eating them all and might have more when I get home from work. They’re SO good!

Protein banana muffins. Cute liners, huh? 🐝

[summerset 5,261]

Apple crumble cake in the oven. Used a mix of vanilla and salted caramel Protein this time, also spelt flour instead of oat flour because I had an open package of spelt flour and an apple cake spice mix instead of cinnamon only. The unbaked dough was awesome. I'm curious how it will turn out this time.

Sometimes I really miss bananas (allergic). But those liners are bee-utiful.

I think the muffins would taste good with apple-cinnamon mix as well. Like using applesauce and a few pieces of apples. I mostly purred the banana except for a few chunks anyway.

That's how the date candies I recently posted a picture of look from the inside:

Took one out of the freezer tonight.

Sunday afternoon baking of my fave Cookies of all time: Amaretti Cookies!

This batch was made with 1/2 cup real sugar and 3/4 cup swerve.

I ate two cookies: 53 calories for both of ‘em.

P.S. I also made a small creme caramel with the leftover egg yolks. Its still setting in the fridge, so haven’t turned it out yet to take a pic of it in all its syrupy glory. Can’t wait! 😂

Pink bean quesadilla made with low carb tortilla. I remember to take the pic after I was done (I ate around 60%)

dinner. Creamy curry quinoa with currants, oven roasted veg., pot roast, and baked tofu. Stuff to make meals with all week for husband and me. Be surprised...I ate it all. And I liked it. 😬😬

Gathered together a bunch of stuff that needed to be used up and came up with.... FANCY TOAST. 😉

Ricotta mixed with preserved lemon & juice on toasted french bread slices, topped with truffle roasted figs and drizzled with honey...oh and some toasted walnuts on top.

I ate one toast: 184 calories.
