What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

B- scrambled eggs with avocado and fermented red cabbage. My egg supply is drying up - daughter’s chickens have found a secret place to lay and nobody can discover it!
L- at a tapas place. We chose 3 small dishes each. I had smoked salmon with fennel and samphire, meatballs in a spicy tomato sauce and the simplest but most delicious salad of yellow and green courgette ribbons topped with goats cheese and sunflower seeds. The dressing was made from lemon thyme, ACV and olive oil. I could eat it for every meal.
Dinner at home - wild Alaskan salmon with airfried red pepper and patron peppers, kimchi and a mixed salad. Glass of dry white wine.
 
I'd lost this thread from notifications again.
Today was the third day of zuurkoolstamppot. (Cauliflower purée mixed with sauerkraut and eaten with smoked sausaged and brined pork belly, both boiled and fried after boiling.)
Heavy on the meat this time, I'll be on holiday for two and a half weeks starting tomorrow, and if I have to choose between eating the meat and feeding the leftover stamppot to the chickens or the other way around, it's an easy choice.

Four dogs and a cat had a substantial piece of sausage as well.

Do you make the kimchi? I’m thinking of giving it a try.

Do you know why the lamb was tough? @IanBish. Was the lamb tikka a take-away or did you make it yourself?

It was a takeaway, @LivingLightly. I guess it's a bit like steak in so far as you don't know how tough or tender it will be until you eat it. I'll mention it to them next time I'm there.
