Sorry for the background but this was just off from the eye.

Meal prepping for the next two days.

OC With my wife out of town I bought a rotisserie chicken and stretched it for 4 meals, reusing as many ingredients as I could

These all basically use the same ingredients:

- Rotisserie chicken
- Cottage cheese
- Romaine lettuce
- sweet potato
- tomato

I had some leftover quinoa, pickled red cabbage, and pickled onion so those are used as well.

After the enthusiastic response over my last ‘dinner for breakfast’ post, I’m back for some sweet sweet dopamine and pseudo-socialising with this one.

Pork shoulder schnitzel, mustard mash, cabbage, spring greens and sauerkraut all fried in pickle juice and butter, and topped with a homemade preserved lemon, anchovy and rosemary butter.

It’s 10am here. Breakfast of kings. Or at the very least, a short hungry lesbian with a tendency to forget to eat during the day, so now I’m frontloading 😆

4 steaks for 50 bucks. The steaks are massive so I can easily have two dinners out of one steak.

I hope this is allowed. I started my new diet at the beginning of the year, well, not really a diet, more like eating better foods and cutting out bread. I wanted to try something quick and new, this didn't disappoint.
