30 Day No Repeat Dinner Challenge...Day 30! (Last day)

Tonight's dinner:
Fried Cabbage with Bacon

Decided to make my last dinner for this month the easiest one to make, but it's also one of my favorite meals. Filling, fast to prepare...bacon! It's been an interesting month with a different dinner every night. It was definitely challenging towards the end. The challenge has helped me break my dinner rut and branch out to try new things.

Recipe:
Chop bacon and fry till desired crispiness.
While bacon is cooking, chop the cabbage. Take bacon out of pan, but leave the bacon grease. Add cabbage and season with garlic powder and onion flakes. Let cook with lid till the cabbage cooks down. Then add bacon in, stir to mix. Then enjoy!

Tonight's Dinner: Bunless Chili Cheese Dogs with coleslaw!

Link to recipe is below.
I didn't fully go by the recipe. I decided not to make it into a casserole. I did the chili, but added tomato sauce instead of water. I boiled the hot dogs, which I buy Hebrew. Everyone loved it!

Tonight's dinner: Bacon Calzones!

Used my fat head dough recipe.
https://www.ketofocus.com/recipes/keto-fat-head-pizza-crust/
I rolled it out oblong and added my toppings to one half, but leave some space from the edge. Then fold top over and roll from the bottom up to seal. Then I scored 3 lines on top. 400° oven for around 15-20 minutes.

30 Day No Repeat Dinner Challenge...Day 23!
Tonight's dinner: Shrimp Alfredo over spaghetti squash.

For the squash:
I cut my squash either way, horizontally or vertically. Scoop out the insides. I spray each slice with avocado oil spray and season with salt and pepper. Put in a 400° oven for about 45 minutes or until your desired tenderness. When done take out and let it sit for a bit before you shred it.
*COMMENT BELOW IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE A VIDEO ON HOW I PREPARE IT*
Alfredo sauce:
4 cups of heavy cream
4 tbl of butter
6 garlic cloves (minced)
1 cup of Parmesan
1 cup of Mozzarella
Melt butter, add the garlic and saute for a minute or so. Add the heavy cream. Cook on medium heat until it starts to bubble, then I turn to low and let it simmer for a bit. Then add the cheeses and stir to mix until melted through. Then I let it sit and simmer to thicken.
