My blog has been broken for the last couple of days, so I missed getting to share my food diaries with you! 🙂
Nothing major it was just a technical glitch, but we’ll have to play a little catchup now.;)
In this post you’ll see ALL of my low carb meals for the last three full days, including my MyFitnessPal diaries so you can see how I logged them.
I eat very simple low carb foods with ideal LCHF macros, so hopefully this will give you some fresh ideas to mix things up a bit if you’re looking for something different to try.
By the way…
I had a GREAT time in our Low Carb Class yesterday! 🙂 I hope you got a chance to join in live, or at least listen to the replay. If not, click that link – you can access SIX low carb classes and watch them at your leisure.:) Enjoy!!
My Low Carb Meals on Sunday
I had my favorite “low carb cereal” I make with pecan pieces, cottage cheese, strawberries & blueberries. I use frozen berries, dice them up (which is easier while they’re still slightly frozen!) and then mix it all together. 🙂
This bowl was 6 net carbs and 86% healthy fat:
I had a busy day, and I had my breakfast late, so I snacked on a serving of raw pecan halves in the early afternoon.
They’re a great low carb snack – very portable, not messy, and super low carb / high fat.
For dinner I made some zucchini noodles and baby asparagus, then topped that with my leftover beef tips & mushrooms I made on Saturday.
Aaron came over, and he doesn’t eat red meat (he’s mostly “keto pescatarian”) so I added Coconut Oil & Himalayan Salt Pili Nuts to his meal. 🙂
That looked so good that I ended up adding Pili Nuts to mine too! 🙂

I *LOVE* cooking with them! Especially the Spicy Chili flavor. It adds a nice buttery crunch and a little kick to any meal. 😉
Here’s my MyFitnessPal Food Diary for Sunday:
My Low Carb Meals on Monday
My breakfast on Monday was more like a dessert plate. 🙂
I had 60 grams of pecan halves, half a serving of Lily’s Sugar Free Dark Chocolate, 4 fresh strawberries and kosher cream cheese. Yum!
Tip: If you put your cream cheese in the microwave for a few seconds, it “fluffs it up!”
I had kind of a late lunch / early dinner…
It’s cauliflower rice sauteed with Pili Nuts (these are addictive, seriously!), topped with shrimp – with steamed broccoli on the side.
That’s all frozen foods except for the nuts…
You can get “riced cauliflower” in the freezer section now, the broccoli was Pictsweet Steamables (steamed right in the bag, straight out of the freezer), and the frozen shrimp was just pan fried in real butter with Oh My Spice! Sweet & Savory spice added to it (that spice is gluten free & paleo friendly – and delicious!!).
So yes – this was a super FAST meal to put together. 🙂
But healthy and delicious too, and all “real food”…
After dinner Aaron did some baking, thanks to Deana of Good Dee’s. 🙂
Her sugar free baking mixes are SO good!
Here’s my low carb recipe for the Peanut Butter Pecan Brownies (although we used walnuts this time, and made a double batch!!).
And here’s my recipe for the Low Carb Pecan Blondies. My special recipes really dress these mixes up nicely. 😉
I had one of the Low Carb Blondies later that night with fresh strawberries. 🙂
Tip: You have to let them cool ALL the way before you cut them!;)

My Low Carb Meals on Tuesday
I had one of those beautiful blondies for breakfast with some raw pecan halves – which made for an easy LCHF breakfast at my desk. 🙂
For lunch I finished the last of the beef tips & mushrooms, mixed with some leftover cauliflower rice & pili nuts from out dinner the night before:
I had some raw pecans for a filling snack in the early evening:
And then I had HALF of this HUGE low carb peanut butter walnut brownie later that night – with two fresh strawberries. 🙂
Here’s that low carb brownie recipe again.;)

LCHF Macros: A Simple Explanation & Illustration
As you can see, I keep my meals & snacks pretty simple…
It’s rare that I do any real cooking. That’s one of the things I *love* about Good Dee’s baking mixes by the way: you can literally put those blondies or brownies together in 10 minutes tops… and they come out so “gourmet” like! 🙂
When I do cook I like to make plenty, because as you can see – those beef tips & mushrooms I made in the slow cooker on Saturday made several great meals. That makes it easy, which I love.
Speaking of Saturday… THIS Saturday I’m hosting another LIVE Low Carb Class. This class will be Open Q&A style, so if you’re planning to attend… bring your questions!
The classes have been SO much fun. Have you had a chance to watch any of them yet? I would love to hear your feedback. 🙂
How are things going with you?
I would LOVE to hear how things are going with you now that the summer is starting to wind down, and how your own low carb journey is going…
Leave a comment & let’s chat.;)
Oh… and my weight is dropping again too – finally. YAY! haha…
Best,
