    Dinner was BLT, and chicken salad on a bed of kale. The BLT was surprisingly easy to eat. emxm6oxaq4qc.jpg

    You are off to a great start, that is a wonderful meal for day 1. You will do great if you can keep this up.

    That looks scrummy @EllaLeahB - I must admit though - I would probably have eaten two drumsticks - and the thighs too!!
    I often make spiralised courgettes too! Love 'em! Nice dinner!

    Two nights ago: My husband's favorite vegetables, Greek Salad (1/3 Feta). Not Keto but LC.
    41 hr fast after that, til this afternoon.

    This is my fave kind of summer salad! Also, is that an Early American Pyrex bowl? I have a brown one (it was my grandma's) and it's my main salad bowl!

    Yep on the Pyrex @bjwoodzy, lol, but it's the Canadian (?) version 'Autumn Harvest'. I have the whole 4 pc. multi-tone set (wedding present - I'm that old hahaha). The other day I saw a partial set of 3 at a vintage & antique shop for $65!! I'm a fan of vintage Tupperware too as you can see from my hubby's water cup for his lunchkit.

    I'm learning how to prepare my own sashimi as I love it so much. My agedashi tofu in dashi broth is also pretty good!

    Grilled skirt steak, roasted Brussel sprouts with red onion and bacon, and a cauliflower "tater" salad. 6oeie8jr33ab.jpg

    Did you make the cauliflower "tater" salad the same as you would make traditional potato salad? Can you share your recipe?

    To be honest... tater salad is a "wing-it" recipe. I first steam and chill a chopped up head of cauliflower. Then add chopped up red onion, celery, boiled eggs, and dill pickles. I mix it all together with some real mayo, and add salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder, and then paprika. I don't have exact amounts because I taste as I season, and season to taste. If you find a recipe online, just sub a head of cauliflower for the Taters. Oh and topping it with green onions, bacon, sour cream, and cheese is amazing.

    I tried something new today - I made a steak tartare. I've never had it before but I saw them make it on a cooking show and it looked pretty good.

    It's sort of akin to a tuna salad or a chicken salad, but with lean, raw beef. I used a lean beef tenderloin, diced it up to 1/4" pieces, and mixed with some olive oil mayo, onion, diced olives, and seasoning.

    It was actually really filing. Not bad either, just needed a pinch more salt and spice.

    All you really need to do is to make sure your fish is fresh, even if you purchase fillets.
    I freeze my fish, for 24 hours (this absolutely eliminates any possible little nasties, which with fresh, commercially-available fish, is highly unlikely anyway) and then I thaw it, but while it's still semi-frozen, I slice it really thinly, lay it on a spotlessly-clean dishcloth (Teatowel) and leave until fully thawed. Arrange artfully on a dish. You can use salmon, Tuna, mackerel and any good firm white fish.
    The dipping sauce: I use Japanese rice wine, a little Mirin, Kikkoman soy sauce, a drop of tabasco and lemon juice. I add salt to taste. The carb content, for a dipping sauce is, in my opinion, totally negligible for it to matter.
    (Adjust these ingredients to taste, but obviously, the soy sauce is major....)

    For the Dashi/stock, I use Kombu seaweed and Bonito flakes - all available online or from a good Oriental grocer/supplier.
    I make my own Miso paste, but you can also buy this commercially, and it's an indispensable seasoning/paste for anywhere requiring that glorious Umami flavour.
    A few sliced spring onions (Scallions to our USA buddies) and carefully quartered silk Tofu, makes for a stunningly good soup.
