So during our Keto diet, we have been eating mainly bacon and eggs, pancakes, or these Jalapeno Egg Muffins for breakfast. While these are all very tasty, I am a sucker for either oatmeal, malt-o-meal, or cream of wheat type of breakfasts. Only problem is they are all carb loaded so I haven’t even tried anything similar. Then I read on another blog about this Grain Free Hot Cereal and decided to give it a try because more fiber is always great and no carbs!
So Grant and I have been wanting some lasagna, so after his request, I decided to try Zucchini Lasagna. I have never made it before, so I read up on how to make it. I have a great lasagna recipe that I wanted to follow,but wanted to make sure I correctly do the zucchini portion.
So, I feel like all of the recipes that I am posting are sweets. We do eat a lot of veggies I promise! Most of those recipes we eat, I have already posted like the baked squash that has been a favorite of late. Also, for lunches, I have found that taking frozen veggies like broccoli or green beans placed in a tupperware with a little bit of seasoning are great for lunches. Just microwave for a 2-3 minutes, and you have perfectly steamed veggies. Since I work from home it is easy to ignore my lunches or crave things I shouldn’t, so I have found the most effective way to eat well is to pack myself a lunch at the same time that I pack Grant’s. That way, I almost always eat what I have packed since it is easier to do that than prepare something else.
Since we have started our diet, we haven’t felt very restricted; there are a few things that we crave but nothing to terrible…. I have a HORRIBLE sweet tooth, so I am always on the look out for good desserts that I can have. Grant and I like ice cream,but I normally don’t crave it very often unless it is moose tracks/happy tracks. I stay far away from that crack as I can cause once you pop you can’t stop. Anyway, for my birthday, I got an Amazon gift card from Amanda & Bryan, and I had been looking at buying a certain something for a while, and broke down and got it with that gift card.
Grant and I have been eating Pork a lot, and one of my favorite recipes is Teriyaki Pork that my Sister-in-Law, Sarina, showed us. But I was wanting something different, and happened to stumble on this recipe that happens to be Keto as well.  http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Simple-Time-Pork-Chops/Detail.aspx
Grant and I have been doing the Keto diet which is a high fat, low carb diet, and here is just a glance at some of the foods we have been eating.
