Dinner for Two

LCHF Waldorf Salad

Chicken Breast Pesto Rollmops

Roasted Petit Peppers

Spiced Cauliflower Mash

This whole meal started with a Waldorf Salad yearning, which usually is inspired by the beautiful apples in the grocers this time of year. Also, my partner was not feeling the best. I only know how to cook, not how to heal, though in some ways food has amazing properties of healing I suppose. I also wanted to partly test drive this chicken idea as I’d like to make a version if it when our friend comes to dinner.

This is going to be more a summary of what I made and not exact measurements. I’m pretty sure that anyone who visits this blog is a way more accomplished cook than I’ll ever hope to be! Run with your own measurements, instincts and culinary acumen!

Fast forward into adulthood, and now – at least a few times a year – I absolutely must have some! When we lived in East London, SA, Continue reading →

After a day in the garden sometimes you need to throw a fast stir fry together to get a quick lunch.

Tender Pork Ribs, oven baked and grilled

Posted on March 16, 2019 by Keto and LCHF Recipes

In winter it’s no fun for my Sweetie to smoke ribs out in the chill at the back of our house. Knowing him though, if I asked he’d do it!

A friend told me he bakes ribs in the oven, really really slowly, lets them rest and then browns them under the oven grill before serving. He also said Continue reading →

Pork Shoulder Roast, Puerto Rican style with a touch of Jamaica!

Posted on March 9, 2019 by Keto and LCHF Recipes

Roasts always intimidate me. Small pork chops and I understand each other, but a hefty roast I approach with respect.

I saw a recipe that I liked for Puerto Rican roast pork and wow it looked good. Mostly olive oil, garlic and Continue reading →

South African Bobotie
