@JeanLouiseFinch I want to come to your house to eat! I eat low carb, too, but my meals are not nearly as yummy as yours sound... I basically grill a steak and have a salad....pretty much every night. You inspire me.

We just finished the New Years pork loin roast. I had added mushrooms and caramelized onions with garlic, mushroom soup, and wine in the crock pot for something different.

Saturday is steak, but we went out for our birthdays last night, so tonight I had steak, he had mushroom roast.

Tomorrow will be chicken.

I never know from one day to the next what I am going to eat.

This morning, I found very thick cut port chops in the freezer. i cooked them with about 6 very large onions browned in a cast iron casserole and finished them in the oven. The meal was rounded out with oven roasted Brussels sprouts and mashed potatoes and white cake.

I have two boxes of mushrooms I need to use up, so tomorrow night it will probably be cottage pie.

I had some ham on the bone left over, so I made ham salad for lunches and froze the bone for use later.

I have leftover roast beef and sour cream in the fridge, so beef stroganoff is in order for Tuesday.

After that...who knows? I have been trying to use up the food in my freezer.

Thank you, @Goldengate8361! You can do it! There are many great recipe sites on the internet. We love eating this way. Yes, it requires some planning and stocking the right kind of ingredients, but it's worth the effort. I feel so good now and havent been sick since I started and had the keto flu. i do my best to have a decent variety in my menu plans, to keep things from getting boring, but there are times where I really enjoy a simple steak and a salad or veg., or grilled pork chop and side veg. If I make steak or grilled chicken breasts, i always make enough to have some left for a big dinner salad another day. Casserole type dishes are always good for multiple servings. I usually have Two Good yogurt in the fridge and keto granola in the cabinet but I ran out of granola so I couldn't add that to the list.

I am trying to do better with planning. We are retired and what to fix can become daunting and irritating. So I'm going to plan 3 or four days at a time.

It helps us be sure we are getting good variety, helps think about it and cook ahead (take things out of the freezer), and it helps make sure we have the ingredients.

I have a pad with space for each day and a side area to make your grocery list and it is so helpful. If I use it!
