I’ve done green giant. It was good. But I haven’t made my own so nothing to compare it to.

Has anyone tried jackfruit? Looking at this made me think of it.
https://tasteaholics.com/news/the-pros-and-cons-of-jackfruit-20753/Ketogenic dieters and those who are eating low-carb will want to be careful when choosing their jackfruits, as there are two types of fruit typically available for purchase. Sweet ripe jackfruit (the kind most commonly available in Asian supermarkets) is bright orange in color—however, it contains more carbohydrates and sugars as it ripens. You’ll want to look for the bright green underripe “young” jackfruits; this type of fruit has the texture that vegetarians look for in a meat substitute, and fewer carbs and calories.

I use the Walmart brand (I think it is). I like it and it is easy for sure. If I grate fresh, I like to brown it in a frying pan, but the packaged stuff just gets nuked and eaten with some xanthan gum gravy.

I improved my cheeseburger salad
Ground beef, Colby Jack, sautéed mushrooms, tomato, bacon pieces, dill relish, Dijon mustard, baby spinach. It’s my new favorite meal.

Today has been super productive as far as food goes. Chicken fried rice! I used miracle rice, chicken, eggs, and broccoli. 4g net carbs. 5-6g net if using soy sauce.

I get the frozen kind at Costco. I keep them on hand. It comes in 6 baggies(?) and tastes good. It's convenient and versatile.2 -

I make my own. Cut cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor. I generally do it in batches pulling out any big pieces for the next go round. Then I saute in a pan with a little butter. I made it for a family get together dinner one night for someone low carbing and everyone fought over it rather than the regular rice that was also on the table, lol.2 -

Its a modified version of Joe Duff's banana bread. Essentially, I replaced the nuts with chocolate chips

Salmon, zucchini spirals cooked with bacon, konjac rice, yogurt-dill sauce. This was leftovers from a couple of other meals. Had a flax muffin for my evening snack to bring my fat levels up.4 -
Tonight it was grilled marinated flank steak over lettuce, tomato, onion, sour cream, shredded cheese and hot Taco sauce with a dollop of homemade Queso on top.
Also splurged some carbs on a weighed out portion of good Tortilla Chips, with some more homemade queos.
Lunch was 6 strips of pan-fried center cut bacon, plus 3 eggs and 1 white fried in just a smidge of the leftover bacon fat, plus a cup of coffee and half and half
Indulged in a drink tonight. 3oz absokuty vanilla vodka mixed with diet A&W rootbeer.
Lindor Extra Dark chocolate truffle as a small treat. I freeze them and then consume slowly over about 10 minutes.4
