One More Thing
You've probably already noticed that I've kind of drifted away from low-carbing. Hopefully, I'll get back on track soon.
Low Carbing
Here's the thing - I'd been trying to cut back on my carb intake to 20% of my daily calories. It's hard for me to get creative with breakfasts when basically all I'm having are eggs, maybe with sausage or eggs.
One idea that hasn't gotten too boring for me is 2 eggs, scrambled and cooked in either butter or bacon fat. Then I sprinkle on a little cheese, maybe about 4 crushed tortilla chips and about a teaspoon of sour cream. I don't have the numbers right in front of me, but that works out to about 60% fat; 20% protein; and 20% carbs. I think that's about the proportion that Sally Fallon recommends.
