Leftover spicy salsa sausages for brekkie, cheese and nuts have powered me through a day on the cricket pitch and now I have a load of calories leftover and I'm not particularly hungry.
But I need to eat or MFP will have some kind of fit and I'll be diagnosed with some kind of eating disorder by the calorie police so some scrambled eggs, bacon and veggies will fit the bill nicely.
Or I may just drink them :P0 -

WOOHOOOOOOOOO found a hella-sexy sale on chicken-breast tenders (the nice strip of chicken meat behind the breast)... only $1.58/lb so I purchased almost 54lbs worth and broke it down...
So - dinner tonight (Monday 07/09/2012), I am planning on a Chicken Parmesan Bake.
Penne for my husband's while I plan on making some faux noodles out of eggplant and zucchini.
Homemade marinara and I have a wonderful Mozzarella and Provolone blend to get all melty gooey and then that light browning frmo the broiler.... mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm yeah!!!0 -

Kangaroo sausages (extremely lean), cheese, raw nuts, spicy tuna salad and a widdle bit of ice cream
I had some processed-to-the-max garlic bread yesterday, I used it to wipe up some meaty sauce ... it was great and highlighted something yer average piece of lettuce cannot do Only one bit though 0 -
Nothing too adventurous today:

well, thanks to this group, I started the day with a MIM with cinnamon and almonds topped with butter and my usual coffee with heavy cream. Lunch will be an arugula salad with a few cherry tomatoes, spanish almonds, tuna, grated parmesan and a balsamic vinaigrette with garlic and chilli flakes. Dinner is open...I'll recheck this thread for some excellent ideas.0

1,381 calories, 21 net carbs - a little high on sodium, but a good deal of potassium to offset it too.0 -
Sausages, mustard, cheese and nuts took me through to dinner with an 8km brisk walk in the middle.
Dinner was some spicy chicken and beef mince cooked up in some rather splendid 100% animal fat I have found with some leafy veggies and a large serving of a basic salad, filling.
I then went nuts and also had a bit of garlic bread, some breadcrumb-laden meatloaf I've cooked up for tomorrow and followed it all with a large spoon of premium ice cream.
That's exercise and sea air for ya 0 -
Was going to have left over pork loin and fillet mignon but change of plans. It's been almost 2 months since I started Fast-5 so it has been that long since I have had a breakfast break-fast. So I'm going to make some pancakes, maybe a couple of versions. Sour cream and coconut flour, sour cream and flax, some nice greasy breakfast sausage and some fake maple syrup.
That should put the breakfast monster to bed for a while.
I should not be thinking about it so early in the day. I'm getting hungry already!0 -
I made a breakfast frittata that turned out all right. I will make it again with more ingredients - some onions and peppers maybe or spinach and sour cream. It was good though.. filling and low carb.
For lunch I had a brisket taco made from Mission Carb Balance tortilla, leftover smoked brisket, and cheese (YUM!) and a Kiwi. Stupid Kiwi has 11 carbs. Oh well.
For dinner probably left over brisket since I have about 20lbs of it in the fridge. Will probably steam an artichoke to go with it and maybe a salad.
I seriously need to learn how to cook more "exotic" things because I get tired of the same old menu rotation all of the time.0 -
I'm going to grill some salmon tonight, love it just the way it is. I have a head of iceberg and I'm going eat a chunk of that and steam up some fresh cauliflower, I love cooking in the summer, the veggies are just so fresh and yummy!0

This is so so true. Can't say it enough. This is why this forum is so helpful. We get new ideas. When you get bored with the same old same old the easiest thing to do is to grab something off the shelf, and unless you are in Sweden the likelyhood of it being low carb is not very high.0 -
Today I've managed to get pork into every meal:
breakfast: pork chorizo with a egg and scallions scrambled in. Cholula on top

Dinner: polish sausage with sauerkraut and mustard.0 -
mmm pork 0

Snacks: 1 x passionfruit & Mango sugar free jelly pot, 3x mini austrian smoked cheese pieces.
Lunch: Salad (small side salad bought from shop) with a sliced grilled chicken breast, marinated in indian tikka spices.
Dinner: Leftover enchilada bake from last night. I adapted the recipe from here:
http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/enchilada_bake.html
I added 1/2 a tub or soured cream and 2 roasted green chilli peppers (blended) to the topping and removed the cheese & taco seasoning. I then sprinkled some mozarella on the top. Instead of enchilada sauce (the only ones I could find were really high in carbs) I used 1/2 can of chopped tomatoes (low sugar) and 2 tsp tomato puree. Instead of the can of green chillis I used 1/2 a green bell pepper.0 -
