You are so amazing at coming up with original ideas. You took canned beef and butter and made it into a gourmet meal. I have never even heard of a rillette. Did it taste good?
ReplyDeleteHow much canned beef do you use at each meal? Do you weigh it out still and if so by ounces or grams? Is it the same meal for breakfast, lunch and dinner? You mentioned that you are changing your macros. Are you changing the amount of food and the number of calories you eat in a day? Is it tasty enough that you can continue eating this meal indefinitely?
This is all so interesting. What a huge change you are making in your life. What great dedication to a issue that you are passionate about. Wow!
Thank you, Lori! Yes, it tastes great! I love it! If you have ever had Underwood deviled ham or chicken, it reminds me of that. I do still weigh my meals in grams. I'm eating about 120g per meal. I'm eating local pastured eggs for some meals too. I'm still eating the same calories per day, but the fat/protein is more around 52%/48% now. I think I could eat this for a long time, it is really tasty. I just might order their canned turkey or pork occasionally for some variety, or maybe occasionally pick up fresh fish at the meat counter.
DeleteI looked into the canned meat on their website and the cost with shipping is a bit pricey for me. I am trying to buy local beef or lamb. I am interested to see if your new fat/protein ratio changes anything for you. I had to adjust mine in the opposite direction. I was still feeling hungry and so worried about the amount of protein raising my insulin levels. My ratio is 85%/15%. My meals have been getting very boring lately and not tasting good at all. I was using salt for a bit but that increased the pitted edema in my legs . So I had to cut the salt out. Not sure what to do.
DeleteI look forward to hearing about how all these drastic changes work out for you over a period of time. Perhaps I need to make some changes as well. Thanks Mellie.
Oh, too bad. I wonder if your shipping is higher because you are farther away. I calculated wrong, my fat/protein is now at 60/40. Yours at 85/15 must be hard. What are you using as your fat source?
DeleteMy fat source is beef and lamb tallow which I render myself from fat.
