If prepping for recovery, portion out leftovers and freeze as single servings.
I will go back and top these off with steamed cabbage once they have frozen and the cabbage has cooled.

I've been keto off and on for ten years, but I don't recall seeing chicken crust pizza before.
Not gonna claim it tastes just like dough, but when you're craving pizza flavors, this can hit the spot. 🍕👏

These have a chips and dip vibe--
The tips are crispy while the flesh near the root is creamy and sweet.
Maybe not so pretty,
But, oh, so tasty,
And simple too.

Today marks one year on this keto journey. I didn't take a before photo, but I have a pic of myself on 8/7/24 and one I took 8/31/25.
I'm down 67 pounds and I feel immortal.

My pantry/fridge/freezer clean out continues. Fortunately, the farm share I bought last winter ensures a weekly supply of fresh veggies.

I blanched a head of cabbage, shredded, to make my "pasta". I divided the cabbage into six containers, topped them with the stew, and finished with grated pecorino romano.

I bought this thinking it was a sardine I hadn't tried, but it's farmed salmon just like it says on the can
Tasty on spring greens and an avocado using the oil in the can as my dressing
I season the diced avocado with s&p and garlic & onion powders
