Chicken Marengo - Napoleon's favorite.
Black burger.
Home made cannelloni filled with the classic "ragu alla bolognese".
Pork filet "Normandy" with creamy apple sauce.
Chow Mein Cantonese style.
Potato soup Berlin style.
Fried veggies with yoghurt sauce and eggs.
Fried veggies with grilled chicken kebabs.
Beef and eggplant Egypt style with Harissa.
Ossobuco and risotto alla Milanese. To die for.
Eggplant-avocado cream.
Marinated goat cheese with fermented walnuts.
Ragu d'anatra - Duck ragout with home made pasta Venetian style.
Functionless art is vandalism. I am the vandal.

Today I took the planned over standing rib roast from New Year's Day, a planned over braised beef short rib, and about a pound and a half of raw top sirloin steak to combine in the crockpot for beef stroganoff. Serving atop Dreamfields rotini, which while not strictly keto, does not seem to interfere with my weight loss the way regular pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes would. A simple field green salad alongside, and call it good.

My apologies for the delay in answering, Sky. For some reason, the orange dot tree never showed me that post.Skyweir wrote:Have you reached your target weight Menolly? Or do you have a new target?
I had reached the short term goal for the reconstructive surgery, but I want to drop at least another 60 lbs., so there's a way to go yet.

Tonight is game night, so the group is dining out at a local bbq restaurant. Because I'm still eating carbs even though I've been back from Hawaii vacation for 11 days (WHAT IN THE WORLD AM I DOING?!?!?!), I plan to have barbeque nachos for supper.
I'll go back to low-carbing next week. That should be fun, since I'm also doing a dry February....
