Today is the first day of January and is also the first day of World Carnivore Month. To that end, let's challenge ourselves to eat a carnivore diet for the entire month of January. The type of carnivore diet and the level of strictness you choose to do is entirely up to you. Examples of carnivore diets include the following...
1) The Lion Diet. A person eating the Lion Diet only consumes the flesh of ruminant animals, water, and salt.
2) The BBBE Diet. BBBE is an acronym for Beef, Butter, Bacon, and Eggs.
3) The Carnivore Diet. This allows for the consumption of any and all animals and animal by-products, including dairy.
In any of the above examples, the object of course is to not consume any plants as part of your diet. Of course, we're not going to micromanage hoe you prepare your food, so your use of seasonings is entirely your own personal choice.
IF your circumstances don't allow you to go full on carnivore in January, then you can participate in this topic by challenge yourself to do better, above and beyond what you have been doing. For example, if you have still been eating grains, seed oils, refined sugar, or drinking alcohol, challenge yourself to avoid these items and just eat a clean, single ingredient whole foods diet such as clean keto, ketovore, or animal based.
We encourage you to check in daily, and share what you have eaten, perhaps a weigh-in if you're willing, and enjoy in some small talk. Participants in this topic will be entered into a drawing for a prize at the end of the month.
Found this in the comment section of a carnivore youtube video. (Didn't save the username unfortunately.)
" make a similar "gravy" for my eggs, I fry 2 eggs in a good amt of butter, sunny side up, plate into a warm bowl, while the butter is still hot, add about 2 TBL of cream cheese, Whisk a bit then add H&H or heavy cream, very slowly, add pepper, shake in parmesan cheese to taste, spoon over eggs. Use amt of cream, pepper, crm cheese you like for the amt of gravy you need. I also use this gravy over my meats. it is delicious in flavor and FAT. your kidddos are growing so much, good to see them in your videos . keep styling and smiling!"
Here is my version...
1 stick of salted butter(add salt to taste if unsalted)
2 tablespoons of cream cheese
1/4th C of whole milk(all I had on hand, feel free to use fattier milk/cream)
1 tablespoon of parmesan cheese(optional)
Melt the butter on low heat, add the cream cheese and whisk. Do not be alarmed if it separates. Add milk/cream and whisk until combined. Grate some parmesan into the mix while still hot. Whisk it while it cools to make sure it doesn't separate. Serve warm.
Feel free to use less butter and more parmesan, I went slightly overkill with the butter but it turned out delicious so I decided to keep it. Also if you need to reheat it as leftovers you will have to add more milk and whisk it back together.
