Eggs must be a staple part of a LC lifestyle and they are really inexpensive considering their return. Do try get free range though. You can stretch meals by adding high protein foods such as chicken to lots of vegetables. Strip chickens to their bones, boil the bones for broth and stock to use later in soup. Those are a few suggestions. I am sure there are more. You can leave yours in the comments so we can all benefit.

Today I found a fabulous little Tuna Muffin recipe which is not that expensive and will go down well with Low Carb bread (although the bread is far more expensive to make). You may want to scrap making the bread and serve this with a large egg salad and avocado pear. That will make a great combination.

I know of a number of people who are going through a difficult time right now. If you are too, these words are for you,

Deuteronomy 31:8 “… It is the LORD who goes before you. He will be with you; He will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.”

Keep the smile going.

God bless you!
