So I have a surplus of lemons - what can I do that is Lchf to use them up?
 
Lemon cheesecake? Almond flour for the base. Mascarpone cheese and the lemon juice and zest? Couldn't give you a recipe, must be one out there? Or just the cheesey bit without the base?
 
Should you happen to have an aubergine or two you could make baba ganoush.

And use the lemon cest in nice marinade.
 
I squueeze them over cubed pork, add garlic and make kebabs to bbq.
 
Lemon chicken, if you can't use it all, juice the lemons and zest them an freeze the juice in ice cubes for a later date, make A lemon butter, lemon juice and zest soften butter and mix together, make it into a roll with grease proof paper and pop in the freezer, a nice quick slice of it onto steaks, chicken or fish. I do lots of different butters like this, also great for adding to veg
 
Like the idea of the butter and / or freezing the juice/rind
 
Lemonade.

Blitz one whole lemon and the juice from a couple of squeezed lemons in a blender.
Add water (i like sparkling water) til the lemon concentration tastes right.
Sweeten to taste (i use xylitol or erythritol but you can use whatever you like, including crushed sweetener tabs).
Chill.

Enjoy.
