Hey Barbie

On the first page where you posted, the second thread is a sticky called how to start a journal

I look forward to visiting your journal and hearing more about your journey.
(This food thread you started makes me hungry! :lol:

Make a pot of something. Chicken cooked with celery and some onions, herbs like poultry seasoning with has all of the herbs in one container.
Eat some of it as a soup and take some of the chicken out and chop it up to make chicken salad made with mayo and some chopped up boiled eggs. Eat it with a salad/lettuce or just by it's self.

There is a recipe on here for ground beef with shredded cabbage, all cooked down....its good.

Here's the new location of the Crack-slaw recipe
http://victoriahaneveer.com/recipes...assic-crackslaw

I looked at this recipe and it looks delicious. I haven’t made it, but looking at the bottom of nutritional info - 1/4 of this is 24 carbs. I don’t know how much 1/4 of this recipe would be, but 1/4 of 14oz of cabbage and 1/4 of ground beef should not be very many carbs. Anyway for me that is staying at 20g per day this would not work for me. What in it is 24 carbs - soy sauce?. I’m still learning.

I made myself a journal on here and hopefully we can figure out what I am doing wrong... or if it is just the way my body is holding onto the fat...

I just reread that recipe and it''s the Fat that's 24g but the carbs are only 4.5.

Hi Blue,

I finally made a journal. It should be on my site! I hope I did it right. :)

Hi Meme!

The Crack Slaw is 24g of fat but only 4.5g of carbs. I thought that was a bit high too so I looked again.

Yes, we all read it too fast I think.
I also posted a thread with Linda's crack slaw. Did you see that one?
She has a great collection of LC recipes on her web-site.

Sorry! My error. You are right - read too fast. Too much focus on Carbs. Glad it IS so low in carbs. :yum:

Yes it should be on induction because it's ground beef, cabbage and green onion.

Here is the induction page which will answer a lot of questions on what to eat.
