Lately I've been seeing photos of pretty Smoothie Bowls. They look so appetizing. A smoothie served in a bowl and topped with a little bit of this and a little bit of that. I am sure it's expensive when you eat that at a cafe.
But. Smoothie Bowls are high in carbs due to the natural sugars present in fruits and also some of the ingredients used to garnish the smoothie. I can't eat that for now. So. I needed a low carb protein bowl.
So why not bacon, eh? And perhaps a wee bit of my favorite carb - plain white rice.

First up, fry up some bacon. I used this slab.
I was much inspired by this cute glutton. She could be a Pokemon for all I care. I don't know how she can handle such a huge amount of bacon.
I didn't eat the whole lot of course. I saved some for later.
Yummmm.......bacon.......
That solitary egg was pretty much massacred. I have my bad egg days.
How about some sambal? I mean Chimichurri. I'm going through a Chimichurri phase. I eat everything with it.
That amount of bacon was very filling. I don't know how Yuka can down 1 kilo of it. She's awesome.
Wow! That is an awesome bowl. Bacons! My hubby would like this as he loves bacons.
ReplyDeleteBacon is always awesome!
DeleteNow i am cutting down on eating pork...
ReplyDeleteGood for you...
DeleteAh, I prefer a bacon bowl to a smoothie bowl! ;D Where to buy such a thick slab of bacon? The ones I've seen are already pre-sliced to thin pieces. I remember this lady...she's the one who ate the 100 ajitama eggs, right?
ReplyDeleteI bought the bacon at the pork shop at Tesco. Also available at Cold Storage. Yes, that's the same lady who ate 100 eggs :D
DeleteThat bowl looks good.
ReplyDeleteSmoothie made from chai seeds are truly in vogue. I have not tried it yet but I will soon. When I lived in London, my breakfast bowl was made from veg including some raw cabbage or kale, fruit, spelt flakes or barley flakes (soaked overnight with flax seeds) and water. I used a stick blender to bliz it. It was a filling smoothie. A small yoghurt pot of this would cost £3 in the shop.
Your breakfast bowl sounds incredibly healthy :) I have not yet tried a smoothie bowl.
DeleteWhat the... where did you get that thick cut of bacon??? I thought they only sell in slices here???
ReplyDeleteThis one I got from pork shop at Tesco. Also can get from Cold Storage.
Deletebetween a smoothie bowl and a bowl of warm rice, thick bacon, a fried egg and kitchen-made sauce, i think you can guess which temptation i'd choose! :D
ReplyDeleteBacon, right? Which indicates that you are a very normal person. hah..hah...
DeleteI just learnt about chimichurri from Nat Geo channel a few months ago. LOL
ReplyDeletehah..hah...I learnt about it not too long ago too.
DeleteWhat a bombastic word - Chimichurri!! Sounds so "Chim" in Hokkien. LOL
ReplyDeleteLast night I dined at Rocku and ate so many plates of bacon from the a'la carte buffets! Now I am hungry again at your bacons.
Aiyo, I must go to this Rocku!
DeleteYes, sure a lot cheaper if we cook our own at home. Oooo...fatty pork! I like!!!
ReplyDeleteI try to do my own cooking. No more chap fan for me!
DeleteSimple but lethal combination ever!
ReplyDeletehah..hah...I like danger on a plate :D
DeleteI want that plate of super yummy food!!!!
ReplyDeletehee..hee..come..come..
DeleteThe smoothie bowl sure doesn't sound healthy with the sugars, even though the sugars are natural from fruits. I would love to eat your bacon bowl if it is all lean meat.looks good.
ReplyDeleteSmoothies may not be that healthy after all.
DeleteOne bacon bowl over here, Please!! A balanced meal no doubt about that..!
ReplyDeleteComing right up. LOL!
DeleteOh Phong Hong, can I have your bacon bowl, please. I am drooling looking at it. Lol!
ReplyDeleteNancy, of course you can!
DeleteI can smell it from far far away
ReplyDeleteSo fragrant....
DeleteIt's simplicity at its best, PH! I love bacons too! xoxo
ReplyDeleteThanks, Shirley! Bacon has many fans :)
DeleteOh yum, how I wish to it that right now!:)
ReplyDeletehah..hah...go make one :)
