It’s cold outside Papa Bear, drizzling a little bit. So what’s for breakfast or snacks? First experiment of my keto supposed to be pancake but looks like crepes. Anyway, they tasted soo good made 6 and when Gerry came back from outside he had 2 pieces because I ate another one. Cottage cheese, coconut flour, coconut oil, swerve sugar, chia seeds for a crunch, shredded carrots, orange zest and added leftover blueberries. Baked not fried. Getting ready for my second cookbook. Practice, practice to make it the way I want. Another experiment for final recipe. Maybe tomorrow. Looks like another cold day, means more baking and cooking.

Cooking for two! Leftover to makeover: breakfast or lunch, stuffed eggplant or we call relyenong talong. Small eggplant and cherry tomatoes from our garden, leftover meatballs chopped, one beaten egg and leftover rice for fried rice. Cut the eggplant
In half, microwave for 5 minutes to soften the pulps out. Sautéed fresh garlic, onions and tomatoes and add the chopped meatballs and eggplants. Stuffed the eggplants. Cooked in a heated cooking oil while pouring a tablespoon of the beaten egg. Set aside while cooking fried rice with a splash of low sodium soy sauce, garlic powder, herbs seasoning snd leftover beaten egg.
Happy Three Kings Day.

Cooking for two! Leftover to makeover. From the vegetables I picked up turned into our dinner tonight! Chopped two leftover meatballs, added leftover rice, chopped kale from the garden, mixed with mayo and shredded cheese as binders, then stuffed the peppers. Add water to your baking dish and baked for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Served dinner with apple walnut salad. My salad had some cherry tomatoes. Gerry can’t have tomatoes but he liked green and red pickled peppers. The eggplant will be our breakfast tomorrow. Stay tuned!
