I ended up making the French toast a few days ago. I used the Aldi zero carb bread and of course whipped cream because this was essentially dessert

I made cheddar biscuits or Buns with the Carbquik flour. I used 80% carbquik & 20% regular flour because in still nervous about using alternative flours now 😔

No noticeable difference to me

 

And these are regular cheddar biscuits. They look and feel the same, but I haven’t tried the regular ones so idk about the flavor

Haha...totally planning this as my first Carbquick experience. Have the recipe printed. Just haven’t had time to make the yet. I will be using all Carbquick when I make them. I will let you know how they come out. 😬

No, it just has a smoked flavor from smoked paprika being one of the major spices.

Breakfast/Lunch: Scrambled eggs made with Portuguese linguica, yellow onions, and scallions. Ate it with the 1 net carb tortillas and topped it with habanero hot sauce

So I have pretty much been doing nothing but Meal Replacement again since November, so no fun dinner experiments to be found. Decided today I needed something after a kind of confusing cardio consult brought on my my syncope incident Sunday night. They checked my blood pressure and it was 85/52, which is obviously ridiculously low. So, they are treating me for low blood pressure (even though I have NEVER had low blood pressure any of the times it has been measured post-op). My options were to try medication that would bring my BP up...or to increase my Sodium intake.

I opted to try the dietary route (since next week I finally start post-op work with the nutritionist so I'll be moving towards normal foods) because I don't want to contend with medication side effects unless absolutely necessary. Granted, I also don't want to lose consciousness and bounce my head off the floor again either.

So tonight I made myself a Mexican pizza. Taco seasoned ground chicken, taco sauce, and some shredded Mexican 4-cheese blend on a Protein Pizza shell. I should have put the pizza shell in the air fryer for a few minutes on it's own to crisp it up a bit better, but it came out pretty yummy and I am happy with my little culinary treat.

Oh that looks good. Cheesy awesomeness.

Sometimes I eat weird sh*t. Usually its because there is nothing else to eat, but sometimes, I am actually WANTING weird sh*t.

Case in point: todays lunch: shiratake noodles, a can of smoked oysters, 3 anchovy fillets, crumbled feta cheese, a pinch of candied ginger & BBQ sauce: 260 calories.

Ate it all.

No, I'm not pregnant.

Here's something a little more normal, lol:

I have turned into an avid bread baker lately and bake a loaf (or batch) 1-2 times a week. (Have also started eating bread since my bread is AWESOME)

I don't usually eat in the mornings, but the aroma from this morning's bake was calling to me.

36g of homemade onion bread (yes, i weighed it!) + 1/2 tsp butter: approx 150 calories

A whole days worth of food (today)

Breakfast/Lunch: Scrambled eggs and linguica again but this time with some oranges and avocado.

Dinner: Thin crust Alfredo, bacon, onion, spinach and diced Tomato pizza w/ a side of kimchi. Weird food combo indeed but I highly enjoyed eating the rest of it out of a jar while I watched the movie Greenland lol

Snack: 1 mango w/ fat free whip cream

My version of Carbquick cheddar bay biscuits. They are decent. My hubby is eating low carb right now, and he loved them.😊
