The I Didn't Menu Plan Or Shop plates

The past few days I have been really unprepared for meals. It's been a busy week between my daughter's end of year events, job related stuff, family obligations.... excuses, excuses!

What I do is survey the kitchen for what I DO have and just jump in. Since my family doesn't eat keto, that means it may nit be food they want in which case they can do their own surveying and jumping. ;-) We call those "Fend for yourself night" around here and I don't think any grown man or 16 year old girl NEED to have wife/mom solve every meal dilemma for them.

These were a few quickies I dreamed up on the fly...


Bacon n eggs, my style. Bacon cooked first, then jalapenos added to crisp it up. Used a canning lid sprayed with Pam, cracked an egg in it and cooked it to almost done, dumped a bunch of cheese on top, bacon, and peppers, covered for a minute with a lid. Topped with sour cream.

"What the heck do I do with this pork?" plate. Browned a package of ground pork (seasoned with salt, pepper, fennel seed) The fam made nachos. I just topped mine with cheddar, avocado, tomato, and sour cream. Very filling!!

Italian salad. Chopped tomato, red and green cherry pepper, baby mozzarella balls, olive oil, salt pepper.

Finally went shopping, have a real meal planned for tonight, but in a pinch you can always be creative and get your fat, protein and minimal carbs in if you keep the fridge stocked with eggs, cheese, and some veggies!
