I cook and consume my liver out in the camper, otherwise I never hear the end of it
Yes. I cooked the onions first on the griddle outside then the liver. Not familiar with cooking liver whatsoever so I didn’t want to cook at the same time but it turned out fine. Breaded with zesty herbs and salt and light millet almond flour mix

Indoors no go blood aroma or some nonsense. From people who eat sea urchin reproductive parts

My wife cooks it in goop that I have no idea what it is because the bottles are labeled in gobbledygook curlicue writing. Tastes good though!
Growing up my Mom turned liver into shoe leather and we smothered it in ketchup and fried onions attempting to cover the taste. Funny, now I like it with onions and ketchup, but not fried into shoe leather.

Sounds like my mom bless her heart

I found it more tolerant of cook time than many meats.
 
What is this "too much meat"? I don't understand. 🙂

Looks delicious!
Former carnivore here. Left kidney removal caused to me to go to low purine diet, where 2 oz meat per meal is allowed. Meat and other stuff hard on remaining kidney, so I am still learning how to cope fifteen months later. Needless to say keto, etc is out.

If I want to eat a large piece of meat, I go vegetarian for the rest of the day. On the other hand, I can drool at your pictures!
 
My wife carries stainless steel straws in her purse. Some won't like the steel taste, but it beats the feel nasty paper on you lips collapsing in use.
I bought a box of 500 individually wrapped plastic straws for $10 and I keep a bunch of them in my cars. I hate paper straws, they fall apart too easily 🤔

If your remaining kidney is healthy you don’t need a special diet. I had my right kidney removed last November and I was never told to restrict my diet because of that. Just to make sure to drink a bit more water than I previously did.

Mine is not healthy. Even after the cancerous removal functions went up a bit and is now declining again, so I really have to be careful (no corn syrups, no hfcs, no beer, etc). I do a lot more organics than I ever did. Have a really good nephrologist that I can contact daily as we figure this out. Bad news is I am on a high prednisone dose to try to get the functions better, and that comes with its own risks. Am using insulin temporarily to block out the extra high glucose caused by the prednisone.

Cancer was trying to spread to my vena cava, which reduces chances of good recovery close to 50% less. So far no recurrence there. Finishing up a short radiation treatment (5 sessions) to kill one inch cancer spot on the lymph node closest to the removed kidney. Will know in three months or so if that treatment is effective.

Keep in mind I am age 75, and I am pretty sure you are much younger than me. You can see I have a pretty good amount of stuff going on now. On the other hand, all is survivable with proper care that I do receive.

Best decision was to find a really good nephrologist by accident and one of the best urologists in this area. No regrets there.

As an aside, my wife is first generation American with her relatives from Canada. Her Dad and Grandmother came to Kansas via Chicago and were naturalize US citizens. Several are in London, Toronto and some still live in Ridgetown. Another small group is out near Lethbridge. It has been a while, but we try to visit them and maintain contact with a couple of cousins near her age.
