Here we go, the first weekend of World Carnivore Month! Are you nervous or worried about temptations? What are your plans for the weekend and how are you ensuring you will stay on track?
Today we have the Healing Humanity event Meat-Up, hoping to see some familiar faces. 🥰 I will try and get some pictures to share later today!
Have a wonderful weekend!!
I don't typically love cooking with cast iron, despite the excellent results they can bring. It's messy and smells up the house. Add to that, the one we have is super old and not very good. We were recently gifted a really good one from Lancaster Cast Iron so today I decided to give it a try. We have a side burner on our Weber so I could do it outside. I sous vide a steak, then seared it in tallow on the new pan. Man it was incredible. What a difference it made from our old one. Super easy clean up too. Below is the pan, of course I forgot to take a picture of the steak haha.
Do you love using cast iron? What are some favorites you make in them?
Yesterday we surprised the kids and brought home a puppy!! They have been begging for one for years and we felt like the time was right to bring one home.
Meet Angus 🐕 He's a Golden Retriever/King Charles Cavalier Spaniel mix. He's 11 weeks old and currently weighs about 8 pounds, he should be around 35 pounds fully grown. I know it will be an adjustment for a while as he gets potty trained etc but we are so excited. 😂 Wish us luck! 🤪
Cheese is good! I ate a block of chipotle oven baked cheese with lunch yesterday and it was divine. I love it, but know that it halts any progress I'm making, and will even trigger eating in excess to where I'll gain weight. It's sad but I have accepted it. If I eat it in small quantities with a meal, it's ok, but I really have to work to keep it in check.
What's your favorite cheese? How do you incorporate it? Do you see negative results when eating it?
Good Evening Y'all!! Here's my stats for today. As I'm typing out this post. It hit me that I ate dairy in my Evening meal. I ate sushi bake this evening. So I guess we will see how I feel. Blessings!!
I live in the deep south and had to stock up on some “hurricane snacks” this morning. Because of Katrina, I think we all learned to have at least 3 days worth food on hand before a storm. I probably have 5+ days considering I have some canned fish already in my pantry. And, while these may not be the “cleanest” options, they will do in the event we are without power for a few days. If not… I can just incorporate them here and there with my daily foods.
Before I changed my way of eating, this haul would’ve looked very different: cereal, granola bars, mixed nuts, chips, bread, peanut butter, crackers, cookies, cans of ravioli or spaghettios, cans of soup, maybe some oranges or apples.
Not sure how many of you could use some hurricane or other wise “no lights” food ideas, but just thought I would share.
