Keto Day 23 - Best leftovers ever!

I made crockpot broccoli and cheese frittata/casserole, and twice baked mashed cauliflower for dinner on Saturday with my amazing but non-keto boyfriend and 2 Mormon missionaries, and they could hardly believe the cauliflower dish wasn't potatoes! That's a WIN

You know what that dinner produced?

The best leftovers ever for Sunday after church (which what is in the photos, 'cause I forgot to take photos of the original dishes)! Recipes included in images too!

Even Mango, my crazy orange tabby cat, wanted in on the yummy food!

I'm still doing well, and my digestive system continues to cooperate better than it has in years. So grateful!

Keto Day 5 - OMG Smoothie

OMG[oodness], I made (it was an experiment) the BEST smoothie this morning!!! Low carb, high fat, low-ish protein... it fit perfectly into my macros goal for a well-balanced keto meal!!! I will definitely make this again!

You must try this!

Throw all this in a blender (love my personal Ninja blender cups) and enjoy!
*1/2 avocado
*3 strawberries
*1 tblsp heavy whipping cream
*1 cup plain original almond milk
*2 packets of stevia/monk fruit sweetener

Yesterday morning, I also made an amazing meal that was perfectly balanced for keto and just as good as a "throw everything in the pan" meal that I used to enjoy a few times a year (mostly around my boyfriend, since he's more of a Spam person than I am).  The cauliflower and broccoli replaced the rice I used to use, and is by far a smaller amount.  I will also be making this again!!

Throw all this in a pan/skillet, cook till the spam is browned, and enjoy!
*1/2 cup riced cauliflower
*1/2 cup chopped broccoli
*2 oz Spam (1/3 can)
*1 tblsp extra virgin olive oil
*Half of a handful of dried roasted seaweed, crumbled (or crumble it on after everything else is cooked)

***Note: The batch in the photo is doubled so I would have leftovers.
