    You have to go into your phone settings and allow your phone to share photos with MFP.

    I've had a very low meat week as my stomach has been feeling a bit sensitive, but today I had a MIGHTY craving.

    Stomach a bit growly now but I think that's because I inhaled a gigantic fillet in about 30 mins flat.

    Basically snacking tonight. Didn't feel like cooking and this is what I came up with. Now I have a steam bag of brussel sprouts in the microwave, just sounded good. We call these "scrounge for yourself" nights.

    Just realized that baby bella cheese rounds between pepperoni slices would be a wonderful sandwich substitute.

    Such an inspiring thread.

    Finished eating most of it before taking the pic. My version of Buffalo wings using drumsticks because wings are too small with a side of riced cauliflower.

    Yes! I don't add heavy cream, but put half a tbs of cocoa powder and sometimes a pinch of cinnamon. Blending is key. I am trying to quit coffee, I need to find a replacement to have the same taste. Teecino tastes like coffee but has carbs.
    Would really like to see a cup of bulletproof coffee if someone would share!

    Here's how I make my bulletproof coffee.

    Look at that beautiful frothy cream and butter top! This stuff is heaven!
    I go with 1tsp coconut oil, 1tsp butter, 1Tbs heavy cream and 2Tbs sugar free syrup in 12 oz. coffee.

    I eat this with two hard boiled eggs for my late breakfast. Crudites with 2oz of my "Guilt free Ranch" I make it with Strauss Full-Fat Yogurt, salt, pepper, onion, garlic powder, dill, chives, basil, oregano and a squeeze of lemon wedge. The dip is soooo good I cannot imagine I ever ate yogurt with honey because savory yogurt is much tastier.

    Yoghurt mixed with thick tomato sauce and melted butter is an amazing sauce for grilled meat.

    It is pretty good. I ate some plain, some, I mixed with the extra wing sauce and some I put butter on. I think it needs a little something extra like butter. But then again, butter makes a lot of things better. When it says "lightly"in relation to the garlic, it really is light as in barely taste it.

    I used to complain about my mother in law cooking while I was trying to lose weight in the past. That was before lchf. Now she past away but I am revisiting her culinary heritage. She was from Tunisia and was literally using 2 gallons of olive oil per month. If you ditch the bread Tunisian cuisine is actually lchf. I'll try to share those oily recipes with you. Today for lunch I had mulukhiyah. It's a plant they crush the leaves into a fine powder then MIX the powder with olive oil. Add water and meat of your choice, garlic paprika bay leaves and here you go cook forever....for 4 person I use around 200g of olive oily. It's rich green and looks yucky but it's amazing in terms of macro and taste

    Much of what I make doesn't necessarily look pretty but tastes great. How it looks doesn't push me off anything. Based on ingredients listed, this sounds good. A recipe would help from the standpoint of getting the right proportions, though. hint hint

    200g olive oil
    125g of mulukhiyah powder
    10 bay leaves
    1 or 2 whole head of garlic
    1tsp paprika or to taste
    Salt to taste
    400g of veal or lamb shank or chicken

    Dissolve the powder in oil. Then add 1.5L of hot water. Simmer 1h. Add all other ingredients just throw the garlic head as it is. Simmer until meat is tender and oil floats at the surface which is many hours, 6hrs. I don't have a slow cooker but it might work in it.
    The mulukhiyah powder I found it in stores where they sell Mediterranean products

    Thanks. I will look for mulukhiyah powder. I definitely see this as a slow cooker meal. I got one as a wedding gift in 1996 and just started using it a couple weeks ago. In fact, I have some pork shoulder in it right now.
