Every tweak to the low-carb pancake recipe seems to work better; this time I increased the protein powder to one scoop, and decreased the water to 1 tablespoon instead of 2, and that was pretty good. I also used some silicon pancake shapers that I have (they go directly on the griddle, and you pour the batter inside), and those were helpful except that I poured them a bit too full. Still pleased with the results, though! I used sugar-free syrup, and had sausage on the side. About 3g carbs and 26g protein in this breakfast.
Lunch was another of my odd weekend assemblages. The round pinkish stuff is braunschweiger (liver sausage), which is one of those things I can't believe I actually like but have enjoyed since childhood. It needs plenty of yellow mustard. I also have about 2oz cheddar, and some sugar-free (made with Splenda) bread-and-butter pickles. About 4g carbs, and 21g protein.
For a snack I had these flavored almonds. Tasty! And quite low in carb; the herb coating basically didn't add any. 5g carbs and 9g protein in this.
For dinner I had leftover mashed cauliflower with cheese and sour cream, and meatballs. About 16g carbs, and 34g protein.
This odd brown goop is actually fudge; I made Jenny's no-hidden-carb fudge in a quadruple batch, and poured it into heart-shaped molds. This little bit is what didn't fit in the molds, and got poured into the cream cheese container because we can't waste chocolate, now can we? So I ate it later, to make sure it came out okay. :) The recipe made 28 little heart-shaped fudge pieces, which have a little less than 1g carb and about 1g protein each. This amount is about 2g carbs, 3g protein.
Totals for the day are about 30g carbs, and 93g protein.
