Avoccados

[foxfire1977]

I don't see them on the acceptable food list, I just got done eating them because I followed a recipe from Linda's Low carb site. It stated that the Taco Bake was induction friendly ----Any one help me here and reasure me that I didn't just blow my two weeks of induction. Thank you

Re: Avoccados

You are allowed 1/2 an avacado a day even on induction. It's a good source of fat.

Re: Avoccados

Thank you for your fast reply, I was hoping that it was fine. Just found a new source of good fats and a great filler.

Re: Avoccados

They are listed under fats, not veggies. I love them myself and they are awesome this year.

Special Category Foods
To add variety, each day you can also eat 10 to 20 olives, half a small avocado, an ounce of sour cream or three ounces of unsweetened heavy cream, as well as two to three tablespoons of lemon juice or lime juice. But be aware that these foods occasionally slow down weight loss in some people, and may need to be avoided in the first two weeks. If you seem to be losing slowly, moderate your intake of these foods.



How did you like the "Taco Bake?"...I served it yesterday at out little gathering for the GAME.

Re: Avoccados

I loved the Taco bake, for me it is WAY better the day that it's made I tend to have texture issues and today when I had it for breakfast the bottom was a little soft/soggy but flavors are great.

That's true about eating it soon after baking. It seems spicier the first day. To me, most foods taste better the next day, but this one seems to lose the "kick", but I still like it.

I also make this as one of my "meal in a hurry" choices. I usually divide into 8 portions, and individually freeze them. when I don't have time to cook, or I have a day that things went nuts and I need something quick, etc. I like knowing I have one of these in the freezer. Sure, it is a bit soft on the bottom, but not enough that it bothered me.

Are you sure you are draining the grease well enough from the beef? If you don't do a REALLY EXTRA GOOD job, the grease will seep into the crust for sure, and get quite soggy when you reheat.

Re: Avoccados

That's probably what it was--because this time a totaly forgot to drain the grease, luckily I used very lean meat. But will make it again and remember that important step
