Having a fun weekend so far! Made these for breakfast yesterday.... the boys scarfed 'em right up. Grilled salmon & veggies last night; biscuits n gravy for breakfast today!

( The blueberries are wild-caught. :~) )

Yum..

After you "catch them" how do you clean them??

There is a wild black berry as well as introduced European varieties which are awesome but usually covered in cobweb & bugs etc..

I put them in a large colander and rinse them well, them spread them out on a clean towel to dry. They're typically not dusty/dirty/buggy at all. The shrooms I find are a little more work. Because our soil is so sandy, they need a lot of brushing with a soft toothbrush to get the grit off. If you don't go out and pick every other day or so during the height of shroom time, they also tend to get slugs and beetles on them.

Awesome! I do keto, or lazy keto rather. Let me know if you need any tips or suggestions. Once you get the sugar out of your system, you will feel amazing. It's poison I tell ya.

It sure is. To me store-bought berries are nearly tasteless. It's like they develop them for size and keeping ability and taste is a distant third. When they were up here last year I took my g-daughter (just a toddler) berry-picking. My daughter said that she wouldn't eat the blueberries because she hated them. She sure didn't hate on the wild ones! We came back with blue faces and seven berries to share. lol

Keto? I think the "keno diet" is cigarettes, comp drinks, and bankruptcy. lol

How non-dairy do you mean? Can you eat eggs? I'd say eggs any way and even deviled.

Dill pickles, tuna salad, mixed nuts, beef jerky, slim jims, avocado-guacamole, peanut butter, for a few. Basically you're safe eating any kind of meat and a non-starchy vegetable or salad.

My diet is quite different. Basically, I'm limiting fat, fermentable sugars, spicy things, and cruciferous vegetation.

There you go.

Squash, zucchini, greens, green beans, okra and tomatoes (tomatoes have a bit higher carbs but not bad)

A lot can be done with cauliflower as well, such as making fake breadsticks, pizza crusts, etc.

Are you doing the serious keto where you calculate the "macros", fat, protein, carbs? I do the lazy keto where I *strive* to stay under 20 carbs a day. Doesn't always happen though. lol

Hey, I bought some of these bogo the other day and they are good, high in sodium but good.

You still need some good carbs and fruit. Even diabetics need some. Good ones I've seen are papaya for fruit and quinoa for grains.

Green vegetables are the good carbs.
Grains are pretty much a nono
