Maintenance
Simple Meal or Filling Snack
Sometimes you’re just not very hungry or sometimes you’re hungry even though you’ve had your one-meal-a-day! Either way, a small meal or a substantive snack is quite all right! This is one of my favourites: Kirkland cheese and bacon egg bites from Costco and a few baby tomatoes with salt and pepper. Lots of flavour,…
Read MoreGoat Meat Hash with a Fried Egg, Red Peppers and Dill Pickles
This meal contains half the amount of hash as yesterday’s meal because I wasn’t overly hungry, but I did want something fresh and a bit tangy, so I added the fresh red peppers and dill pickles. I also added an egg to increase the protein and add some creaminess to the hash (I ate the…
Read MoreAsian Cauliflower Rice with Goat Meat, Eggs and Green Onions
Today I made fried “rice” using frozen “Asian Cauliflower Rice,” goat meat (pre-cooked and seasoned), scrambled eggs and green onions. I also added garlic, soy sauce and sesame oil. Note that the peas and corn will raise the carb level more than some people may want. If so, you can simply use plain cauliflower rice.

An easy stir-fried dish using cooked, peeled and deveined prawns, konjac noodles, broccoli, red peppers, red onion, garlic and Asian seasonings.
Read MoreChicken Thighs, Salad and Brussels Sprouts
Low-carb is such an easy “diet”! I simply air-fried three pre-seasoned chicken breasts, then added some bagged salad and leftover Brussels sprouts. It doesn’t have to be complicated!
Read MoreCurried Ground Lamb and Veggies
I love lamb! This ground lamb was sauteed with onions, mushrooms, canned diced tomatoes, frozen Asian cauliflower rice and spices for an Indian flavour. I served it with buttered Brussels sprouts and parsnip fries. Not super low-carb, but I do fine with some carbs on maintenance.
Read MoreMeat Sauce and Brussels Sprouts
I often make a sauce with ground meat and veggies. This one is lamb, Italian-seasoned sausage meat, cauliflower rice, diced canned tomatoes, spinach, onion and seasonings. I also steamed some Brussels sprouts, which I absolutely love, and slathered them with butter.
Read MoreTofu Greek Salad
I have to avoid eating a lot of dairy, so this Greek salad uses marinated tofu instead of feta cheese. Note: For some really good fat, I added an entire diced avocado after this photo was taken.
Read MoreSausages, Sweet & Sour Red Cabbage, Sweet Potato
This was a really tasty, filling meal. English Banger Sausages (Save-on-Foods, Vancouver area), sweet and sour red cabbage (use 1/3 c. allulose instead of the sugar) and a small piece of sweet potato.
Read MoreChicken Thighs, Spinach and Sweet Potato
Worried about being hungry on a low-carb diet? It’s very unlikely unless you are deliberately restricting calories. Here’s one example of a low-carb meal that is very filling. Even without the small piece of sweet potato, this is a lot of food. I couldn’t even eat all three chicken thighs, so I have one for…
