Cheese O's order!

As you saw from my previous post, my new favourite thing is "Cheese O's" which are tasty little puffed cheesy bites in a variety of flavours.

There was only regular cheese bites in Cheddar flavour and also Sweet Chilli flavour (we prefer the Sweet Chilli) in my local Supervalu so I decided to order a few of the other flavours directly from the supplier.

Well look at this - they have arrived!

I ordered 24 packets in total and they arrived all packed up in 2 boxes like this.....all the way from County CorK via the Tralee Post Office (I tracked it using the An Post number supplied by the company when they sent me confirmation of my order
The delivery arrived about 11am this morning just before I went to work so we only opened the boxes this evening. 
The first flavour we selected to taste was the Salt & Vinegar, which we both LOVED!
Unfortunately though I only bought 2 of this flavours........guess I will have to order again in the future!
If you are interested in tasting these delicions snacks you can order on their website here, or look out for them in your local Supervalu or other shops.

For me, they are a great low carb snack that fits in my keto lifestyle perfectly. There are not many keto friendly snacks available in my local shop so I am very happy to have found these, and I am looking forward to tasting the other flavours. 

You can check out the website below to see the nutritional info in order to see how this snack would fit in with your diet/lifestyle.

Well done to Dairy Concepts Irl on a great new Irish low carb product!

Edit - Tasted the Cheese & Pickeled Onion and they taste just like Monster Munch.

Saturday Night - Keto Pizza in Ranelagh

 We are expecting cold weather here in Ireland, with the arrival of what is being called an "arctic snap". For the past few days it has been fairly windy and stormy, and cycling home from work yesterday evening was one of the worst - no rain, but bitterly cold. Luckily its a short 10 min cycle from the train station.

When I did eventually get home and got in and got warm, I set about making dinner of Keto pizza. As per usual for this time of year, I am back on low carb along with Intermittent Fasting. The IF is working really well and to be honest I don't miss breakfast or lunch and generally only eat in the evening time.

The pizza turned out great - I covered the top with cheese but be assured, it is loaded with pepperoni under all of that cheese. If you want to make Keto Pizza the recipe is linked here on my blog.

As well as making the pizza I filled bowls full of slow cooker bone broth and popped them in the freezer when cooled. Again with the cold weather, I will be glad of the broth, over the next few days and will probably make some hearty soups with the bone broth as a base.
After dinner, I watched possibly the last of the Hallmark Christmas movies until next Christmas. It was called "Haul out the Holly" and in fairness it was funny and gave me a good giggle in parts. On Friday I noticed a tree still up and lit in the neighbourhood which was nice to see. So nice that I took a pic!
I'm sad to see the end of Christmas really and thinking about it as I was prepping this blog, got me thinking that I really didn't listen to enough Christmas songs over the season.
So I pulled up The Pogues on Youtube and had a listen to "Fairytale in New York". This of course took me down a youtube rabbit hole. After seeing Matt Dillon in the opening scenes, I then went on to look at him and Annabella Sciorra in Mr Wonderful and then went and looked at her in the Sopranos.......and so on - that's what happens with youtube, isn't it?!
Anyway here's Fairytale in New York for you to enjoy now!
