I ate it all. A pound of sirloin, veggies, a pound and a half of mushrooms, plus... two pounds of cabbage? Well, okay, so I probably only ate two thirds of the cabbage. But, still, that's... a lot of food. Not... fully carnivore. But of the sort of keto I don't mind.
Wonderful though. Yes, and probably with a stick of butter. Stick and a half? Boi, that was delicious. I haven't eaten like that in... nearly a year. Couldn't. Sure can now. I am hoping that settles me down, my hunger anyway, for a while. Steak tomorrow. Wow.
But the mix? Beef, mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, and butter? I'm telling you, if I get really hungry, or cold, this winter, I'll hit that again. Even just cabbage and beef, maybe mushrooms, if blood sugar doesn't settle on broccoli and cauliflower. Will see. Would make an excellent stew/soup, too. Which would make it last a lot longer. The thing is, I have been undereating as is. So I don't think I really need to thin out my proteins and fats. Plus, even everything I ate (especially since it was probably only half a pound of the harder veggies) wasn't that many calories. Well, the beef added a goodly bit, and the butter. So... okay. :p
Not going to get to bed all that early. Hoping by midnight. No promises.
Later, or good night.
Easy morning, simple quarterly PM on a boiler, nothing else happening so was a long morning. Time to kill.
ReplyDelete1/4 head cabbage shredded and "steamed" layered over with the last of her lentil soup, and pepper lots of it. No dogs yet, but I'm saving the carrots for them. I was right there's no meat in this, I'd add spicy hot Italian sausage, or a Cajun boudin.
24hrs and another 80 mi. tire pressure hasn't changed, so I got that going for me. It's the little things.
I like lentils, didn't at as a kid? But, they are pretty high in carbs. I like beans in general, but they are so high in carbs. Was raised partly on Mexican food, so beans are... a big part of my culinary background.
ReplyDeleteLentils and ham, is great, too. Of course, ham is all sugared and else (these days, or was it always?). Oh, but bacon would be good to fry, just a few pieces, and toss in. Though... bacon is all sugared, these days, too. Used to be, but you could find some clean bacon. Not anymore. I like the sausage ideas, but again, finding them, good quality, is a bear. And at a good price, boudin is so very expensive on top of being so corrupted.
Yes, the little things. I did a whole haiku on that topic. Believed it then, believe it now.
