Lunch today was my keto faux-Fredo with Gorgonzola cheese and tofu noodles. It looked good... it tasted good... but it smelled like a massive fart thanks to the Gorgonzola. While no one else in our suite of offices has complained, I ended up feeling very guilty for unleashing this odor upon everyone. I've got enough material to make this dish one more time, but next time, I'm going to make it at home. In truth, the smell is somewhere between a fart and vomit. I love the taste of Gorgonzola, and I don't mind the smell when I'm at home, but I won't be doing this in the office ever again.

sauce in the making: butter, heavy cream, Gorgonzola, garlic powder, onion flakes, pepper, oregano, shrooms, and bacon (I haven't added the tofu pasta yet) |

The sauce was awesome, but the pasta was horrible. There's no hiding the fact that it's tofu. Today's meal was perfectly keto, but I had to struggle to force the pasta down my gullet. I don't think I'll be doing this again. Maybe I'll use my Spätzle recipe to make keto gnocchi, and I'll eat the faux-Fredo sauce with that. I also forgot to add chicken this time.
