Today I enjoyed 2 small ribeyes air fried and 4 juicy eggs. Weird part is I still feel hungry or should I say not fully satisfied. I am going to try and refrain from eating anymore today but I may have a slice of bacon or two. I am off tomorrow for a Drs appt with my son and he has asked for Culver's. I may get a couple patties for lunch however, their food always makes me snackish...why is that I wonder?
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?
When Laura is away like she currently is in Spain, I usually struggle, as I've mentioned before. This time I'm doing quite well. I decided to prioritize some proper fuel. Picked up some picanhas from Costco and grilling them fresh daily. Good food has a tendency to wash out the bad habits.
You know picanha is my favorite, what's yours? When you have it, does it help you avoid temptation?
Hey everyone 💜 Hope everyone is doing well. I’m just lurking in the background 😝
