Round-up – Nothing spectacular going on in the kitchen this past week …
Typical salads at lunch (grilled chicken, greens, avocado, radish, cheese, baby tomatoes, green onions), I made another big batch of garlicky green beans to go with a few meals, plus beef with tomatoes and zucchini was dinner a couple nights. Radishes fried ’til crisp in bacon fat went with my breakfast today.
This evening, I attempted (new to me) peanut butter cookie dough truffles. I’ll make a mushroom and Swiss quiche and some Italian sausage egg muffins this weekend, and if I’m not too peanut-buttered-out (easy for me, I’m not a big PB lover & I did too much taste-testing tonight), I’m going to attempt sesame peanut chicken with zucchini noodles later in the week.

OH, and I have POUNDS of pulled pork still, from the 7 lb roast I made last weekend. Some is frozen to keep for later, some is sauced (bbq) and some un-sauced, for tacos. Am either going to attempt a flourless tortilla recipe or just stuff some into cabbage leaves with salsa and fixings.
Wait you saute the radishes? That looks so good. I love radishes
I want those Truffles. Desperate. Want.
I didn’t get my Friday cheat day treat and have a sweet tooth tonight.
yessss, Megan V
a little bacon grease and a little butter
salt & pepper, yum
They are my new “potatoes”
Gabrielle M. these would not be a cheat at all. No sugar and only 3 grams net carbs per piece. Almost golf ball size!
Bobbi Jo Woods Oh hell yes they’d be a cheat treat for me because they look fantastic. I bet they taste wonderful too.
I don’t mind low / no sugar “candy “. If I feel like I’m cheating it is still cheating ( head game). ?
Thanks. They don’t even taste like “sugar free” stuff you’d get at a store, like Russel Stover’s or whatever sugar free brands.
There’s supposed to be some chocolate chip flakes in the dough, but because it was not as chilled as I wanted it to be by the time I was done beating it with the mixer, I didn’t want to mix too hard and have the chips melt, so some of them didn’t incorporate evenly, and this pic shows none.
Bobbi Jo Woods I’m drooling thinking about them. Lol
I had to settle for a sugar free strawberry jello cup. Not. Even. Close.
I like Jell-O. With real whipped cream on top. Cheapest dessert ever for me.
Bobbi Jo Woods ill skip the bacon grease, but a little bit of butter sounds good to me. Grease makes me really sick. I can’t tolerate it very well. (Dont have a gallbladder anymore)
I wonder if you thinly sliced radishes with a mandolin and baked them if they’d turn out like potato chips…
I really want to try the radishes.
Bobbi Jo Woods what did you “sweeten” the truffle with?
Oh love the idea of using fried radishes to replace potatoes.
Bethany Montgomery Van Doren-Smythe III I doubt it, they still retain much water no matter how long I’ve roasted or fried them. People have done “chips” with turnips or parsnips, though. I’ve seen many YouTube vids on it back when I started keto, am not really interested in that anymore, so I never tried it. Pork rinds are my new chips when I need crunchy snacks.
Kelleigh E. Swerve or erythritol/xylitol, and a little stevia
Susan Lewis they fry up nicely, but like I said, they still have moisture, so they’re tender-crisp. I’ve also used them cubed, in stews, and jicama the same way. Jicama stays pretty tough/crisp in stew, though (like undercooked potato), and radishes get more tender as they cook. But the really sharp peppery bite of radish tempers down a lot (to almost nothing) when you cook them.
Bobbi Jo Woods I used to love pork rinds but now I’m sick of them so I have no crunchy snacks other than the occasional baked cheese.
Omg I make baked cheese in the microwave on parchment probably twice a week – this week, it’s been mozza mixed with shredded parm
In the microwave?? I never thought of that. If I did that it wouldn’t heat up the whole apartment. I do pepperoni too with a little mozzarella so it’s like a pizza bite.
YAAASSS GIANT CHEESE CHIP WITH PEPPERONIS
I do this all the time, as well for a fast pizza craving fix.
Megan V this is for you. I also know some people (online) who have literally rid themselves of their asthma and allergies with keto.
