No new recipes tried as such, just a LCHF friendly version of a Cottage Pie, or Shepherds Pie as RMR calls it. Standard mince "filling" as you would make yours for Cottage Pie, and the "mash" topping was caulimash, which worked beautifully.
My mince was a bit on the runny side which made for a more "mash and mince" feel than a Cottage Pie, but it was tasty regardless. The topping is just grated cheddar mixed with Celery Salt as I felt the caulimash was a tad on the bland side. The caulimash was a head of cauliflower, florets steamed until mushy, and that was then combined with a good dollop of ghee and crushed garlic and pureed to a mash consistency with my hand blender. Et viola! The words best LCHF friendly mashed potato replacement!
Sadly, up 400g this morning. No cheating since Monday this week and three dog walk days down, so I am a bit disappointed, but will see what the rest of the week holds. I suspect I just ate too much of the good stuff yesterday / last night :P
There are a thousand different reasons you could be up this morning, hang in there... you'll probably drop it quickly again!
