    Tahini is just ground roasted sesame seed. Way too strong for my tastes, and peanut butter can be a replacement for it if thats the case, at least in hummus recipes for example, where some substitute it for tahini :)

    Cottage cheese + crushed pineapple

    (edit: pineapple isn't "low carb" per se, but you can put a small amount to get the flavor and keep the carbs down ... or, add any other "mixer" to the cottage cheese. Sorry, need way more coffee this morning before posting!) :ohwell:

    Its okay I don't mind fruit carbs. I'm on 20% carbs so I've still got 122g for them. I'm not like those poor souls who only eat 20g of carbs a day... :noway:

    I like two eggs cooked over easy in coconut oil on top of a bed of spinach, few dashes of siricha, and a sprinkle of sunflower seeds for texture. Crustless quiche and fritatas and egg muffins all with a side of avocado make the rotation as well

    Quark

    Is that a duck?
    It's a kinda cheese curd meets cottage cheese dairy product. More common in parts of Europe than the U.S.

    I would describe it as "like solid-ish Greek yogurt and maybe slightly more acidic in taste". Or perhaps a bit like solid-ish crème fraiche (sorry about the incorrect i, it should have a hat on it, not a dot).

    The quiche is a fabulous idea, I've had lots of homemade granola, Greek yogurt and maple syrup lately.

    Actually, yes, a bit more like a solid creme fraiche (I'll use your spelling). Good description.

    Sounds like you may not have these things either (do you live in the deep country??) road trip to a Trader JOes? ;) I found a better yogurt than greek! The brand is Siggi's its about 13 carbs for the whole thing and only 5 ingredients.
    I also get the adkins shakes and put them in my smoothie blender with a tbls natural peanut butter, a handful of kale and chia seeds. That is on days I dont eat my eggs and bacon :)
