Fat Bombs for Hitting Your Macros on the Keto Diet!

To maintain ketosis on the keto diet your intake needs to consist of about 70%. I up my fat intake by eating these yummy yummy fat bombs!

Here's the ingredients:

I'm not really sure about measurements- I normally just whip them all together according to taste!
I don't always use the goose fat, I just had some hanging around so I threw it in. Also I use very little sweetener, like less than a teaspoon!
Make sure to use unsalted butter!

I bought all of these ingredients in Tesco- I love their 85% chocolate it's so rich and has an amazing toasted aftertaste. 

I found these cute heart shaped chocolate molds in the euro shop so I made heart-shaped bombs- Just in time for Valentine's day!



Toss them in the freezer for a while until they are rock hard. Then you can take them out off the molds. I normally store them in the freezer afterwards also- They are very melty, after all, they're basically fat!


 Here's the finished result: How cure and appetising are these?!



Enjoyed best accompanied with bulletproof coffee of course!!




Truth, Beauty, Freedom, Love,

Tayto Cheese and Onion Chocolate

I finally got my hands on the limited edition Cheese and Onion chocolate made by Tayto. Apparently there's only 100,000 of them going to be made available and myself with others had been looking for them everywhere!

I saw them on sale in Superquinn, Ranelagh so I picked up three. At 99c each they were expensive! Also, the picture makes them look quite large- This is diceiving! They are about the size of an animal bar (tiny, I know!) but a bit thicker.

Tayto Milk Chocolate with Cheese and Onion Crisps
Apparently generic milk chocolate with a Tayto wrapping has been on sale for over a year at the Tayto park. Also apparently there are people who mix chocolate with cheese and onion crisps on a regular basis? Sounds awful... And it IS awful! This chocolate bar was the worst thing I have ever tasted! I managed to swallow one square only- And I'm not one to ever not eat chocolate!

My conclusion: I'm glad I bought, tried, took a picture etc... But never again!!
