Was the wife's birthday today... she wanted chicken parm. I've never made it... until today.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.

Taco Tuesday...

Purely by coincidence I assure you. Had ground beef that needed to be cooked, and thanks to the low carb tortilla shells that is one of the things I can quickly fix that won't mess up my blood sugar. Because I scheduled this week off to burn the remainder of my use-or-lose leave, I just now realized that it happened to be Tuesday.

Now I just wish someone would develop a GOOD low/zero carb tortilla chip. I've tried what I've found available around me, but none are good enough to warrant buying again.

Bake your own chips?

I'm not aware of a homemade receipe that would be low carb. Even if I could find one, making from scratch is really more effort than I care to invest.

I could cut up the low carb tortilla and bake it, and have done it before, but the results aren't the same. They are regular flour based instead of corn flour, so flavor and texture aren't really worth the effort.

That said, I did find that Old El Paso recently released a low carb hard taco shell. I intend to buy some of those and break up into chips. Maybe that'll be my solution when I've got to have chips and dip to go with.

Its probably better to be self deprecating than self defecating.
I had some succulent hot pockets.

Almost completely forgot to get a pic from the other night. Flank steak with spicy Mexican rice and a can of corn. I was handed the flank steak folded and frozen and after grumbling about that I took my time to thaw and flatten it back out before cooking it low and slow. Came out tender and juicy.
