Bacon Extravaganza Deep Dish Pizza
Crust:
1.5 cups cooked chicken breast
1.5 cups low-moisture shredded mozzarella cheese
1 Tbsp parsley, dried
1 tsp basil
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Toppings:
4 slices chopped Canadian Bacon
6 slices cooked, crumbled, peppered Bacon
6 slices cooked, crumbled, regular, crispy Bacon
1/4 cup chopped sweet yellow onion
1/4 cup chopped green onion
1/4 cup red sauce
2 cups mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Process chicken and cheese together in a blender, food processor or Ninja. Mixture will resemble a meal/thick, dense crumb consistency. Place parchment paper in the bottom of a 10-11″ springform cheesecake pan (there will be some overlap. Remove excess from below the pan after pan seals parchment in place). Firmly press chicken/cheese mixture into springform pan. Top with parsley, basil, onion and garlic powder. Bake for 20 minutes.
Top with sauce, cheese, and rest of toppings. Bake for 25 more minutes. Let cool for five minutes in pan. Carefully open springform pan. Slice and serve.

Low Carb Raspberry Crepes (serves 1 or 2)
Ingredients:

2 eggs
2 oz cream cheese (use full fat hard like Philadelphia)
1 tsp Swerve Sweetener
½ tsp cinnamon
1 tsp Coconut Flour
16 Fresh raspberries (you will need about 4 berries per crepe)
Whipped Heavy Cream (you will need 1 tbsp whipped cream per crepe)
Instructions:

Prepare the crepes by combining eggs, cream cheese, Swerve Sweetener, cinnamon and coconut flour in blender. Blend until nice and frothy.

It is important to let the blender then sit for a few moments for the bubbles to disperse. This is a perfect time to whip the cream.

Take your nice and frosty bowl and beaters out of the freezer and pour a cup of heavy whipping cream into the bowl. I like to add a pinch of powdered vanilla, but that is optional. Beat with your electric mixer until big and fluffy. Place bowl in fridge.

Take your pan and put on medium heat. You could add a bit of butter if low carb crepesyou like. When the pan is hot, pour in a quarter of the egg mixture from the blender. Once you see bubbles forming, carefully flip the crepe and cook the other side. Repeat with the rest of the mixture.

Take each crepe and make a line of 1 tbsp whipped cream and 4 raspberries. Roll it up and present to your loved one who will be very impressed. Or eat them all yourself!

You could of course use strawberries or blueberries for this recipe instead of the raspberries. Those would be just as delicious!

Breadsticks
1 1/4 cups shredded mozzarella (140 grams)
1 egg
2 tbsp's coconut flour
1 tbsp heavy cream
Garlic Parmesan butter
(disclaimer: I eyeball this part. Make sure that when you mix the cheese into the butter that it makes a sort of thick paste.)
2 tbsp butter
1-2 tbsp parmesan cheese
Garlic powder or minced garlic to preference
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Melt cheese in microwave making sure to not overheat.
Add egg, cream, and coconut flour.
You can add any spices you want at this point but I find it's just as easy to top with garlic butter after they are baked.
Knead your dough until the coconut flour/egg mixture is totally incorporated and roll out between two sheets of parchment paper. (If you have trouble with the dough reheat for 5-10 secs. until it easily comes together and is easy to roll out.)
With a pizza slicer slice into strips (about 6 strips) and bake for 10-15 minutes on the parchment paper.
Melt butter and mix with parmesan cheese and garlic.
Top with garlic butter and parmesan cheese.
Notes
No sugar added pasta or pizza sauce goes great with this for dipping!

Admin
1 head of cabbage
Shredded Chicken (I used leftovers from a rotisserie chicken we had)
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup sour cream
2 (4 ounce) cans of chopped green chiles
Fresh cilantro
Salt & pepper (to taste)
shredded cheese (optional)

For the Sauce:
Add the chicken broth to a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and mix in the sour cream and green chiles, heat thoroughly but do not boil and make sure to stir often. Let simmer for just a bit and the sauce should thicken. Season with salt and pepper.

For the Enchiladas:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Peel the cabbage leaves – make sure to peel them gently, as you don’t want them to tear. I ran the cabbage under warm water as I was peeling. This helped a ton. Throw the cabbage leaves into the pot of boiling water for a couple of minutes. Remove and set on a paper towel to dry.

Mix the shredded chicken with chopped fresh cilantro and shredded cheese (optional). I also seasoned well with salt & pepper.

Spread the enchilada sauce in the bottom of an 8×8 baking dish. Then take your cabbage leaves and place the chicken mixture inside of them and roll up. Place each cabbage roll in the baking dish. Once done, pour the rest of the enchilada sauce over them. I also topped with shredded cheese.

Bake at 350° for about 20 to 30 minutes.



Top with anything you please. Salsa, hot sauce, jalapenos, avocados, cilantro, more cheese, freshly squeezed lime juice, sour cream and the list goes on! Enchiladas are so fun to make because you really can get creative and definitely make use of the veggies and pantry items you already have on hand.

* Please note that I have started incorporating dairy products back into my diet, so that’s why I decided to concoct a sour cream enchilada sauce. You can always substitute this sauce for more of a red sauce if you are trying to stay away from dairy products.

Pepperoni Basil Pizza Bites

Ingredients:

8 oz pckg cream cheese, softened
?2 eggs
1/4 cup pizza or pasta sauce, the lowest carbs you can find. The one I used had 2 net carbs per 1/4 cup
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
5 fresh basil leaves, chopped or torn into small pieces
2 tbsp parmesan cheese, grated
32 slices of pepperoni, plus an additional 1/4 cup chopped pepperoni
1 mini muffin tin, preferably a 24 capacity one

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven at 350 F.
2. Place one pepperoni in the bottom of each mini muffin tin. Press down on them to make them stay.
3. In a large mixing bowl, mix the cream cheese and eggs until thoroughly combined. Add the pizza or pasta sauce, mozzarella, parmesan, basil, and chopped pepperoni.
4. Fill each mini muffin space to the top with this mixture. Be careful not to overfill.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until lighly golden brown and set.
6. Remove them from the pan by passing a small knife around the edges. They should pop right out with no problem but if you know your pan tends to stick then add pam before baking.
7. Place remaining pepperoni's in the bottom of the tins and add remaining mixture and bake as directed.

You have to do this in batches since the recipe yields 32 and the pan only holds 24.

Each pizza bite has 0.35 Net carbs.

THIN AND CRISPY PIZZA CRUST

8 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
4 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
3 eggs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon basil, optional
Toppings of your choice

Mix the cheeses, eggs, garlic powder and basil well. Line a 16-inch pizza pan with parchment paper or nonstick foil. Evenly spread the cheese mixture in the pan, almost to the edge, making it as thin as possible. Bake at 450º 15-20 minutes until golden brown. I suggest checking it after about 10 minutes. If it's getting very dark on the edges and top, turn the oven down to 400º and continue baking until brown all over and no longer pale on the bottom. Pat off any excess grease then add your toppings. Keeping the oven rack in the center position, put the pizza under the broiler until the toppings are hot and any cheese you added is melted and bubbly, about 4-5 minutes.

You may want to sauté your mushrooms, peppers and other vegetable toppings before using because the pizza will only be baked briefly with the toppings on. I also recommend pre-warming any meat toppings as well. I put all of my toppings, except the sauce and cheese, in a big skillet and heated them up together.

White Castle Hamburger Pie

1 lb ground beef (leaner the better otherwise it bubbles over and stinks)
1 pkt onion soup mix or seasoning mixture (noted in recipe)
2 eggs
1/2 c. mayonnaise
1/4 c. heavy cream
8 oz cheddar cheese, shredded
salt and pepper

If you want to save a few carbs, you can use onion powder and dry minced onion in place of the soup mix (which Gettin did). I used 2 tsp toasted onion powder (available from Penzeys or use regular) and 1 tbsp dry minced onion. I also sprinkled a little onion powder in with the egg/mayonnaise mixture. If you do it this way: 476 cals; 41 g. fat; 24 g. protein; 3g carbs; trace dietary fiber; 2.5g net carbs (compared to 16 carbs for soup mix)

Brown the hamburger with about half the onion soup mix or seasoning mixture; drain fat and season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in remaining soup mix or seasoning mix and put meat into a greased 9-10 in pie plate stir in 1/2 cheese, then top with remaining cheese. Beat eggs, mayonnaise, cream and a dash of pepper (and remember onion powder). Pour evenly over meat. Bake at 350 for 30-35 mins. Let stand 10 minutes before serving (good luck with that!)

Blend eggs and liquid together well. Stir in the rest of the ingredients. Pour into a greased pie plate or baking dish and bake @350 until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean, usually 20-45 minutes (depending on which type of dish you use to bake it in).

8 servings. Stores in the refrigerator, in a storage bowl, covered, for up to 10 days. Also can be frozen.

EGGS:Now, you can separate the eggs if, like me, you aren't a huge yolk eater. I think, as long as there are 4 yolks in the whole thing, you can substitute the rest of the eggs with the whites, at a 2 for 1 ratio (two whites for every yolk left out).

MEAT:Oh if this isn't the easiest of the bunch. I normally grab one of those packages of pre-sliced ham or chicken or turkey (watch the salt content though!) and cut those into bite sized pieces. Also, cooked sausage, hamburger and cooked bacon work well. Leftover meats work well too! It doesn't really matter HOW they are cooked as long as they are cooked.

CHEESE: Another easy one. ANY hard cheese that's been grated (again, keep track of how many carbs there are per ounce because even the hard cheeses vary).

VEGGIES: Onion, cooked broccoli, cooked cauliflower, sliced mushrooms, zuchinni, cooked asparagus, green beans. The list goes on and on!

The herbs and spices are to your taste. I am a HUGE garlic fan so I use garlic a LOT! I am also a HUGE fan of the different spice blends by Mrs. Dash.

chicken breast pieces dipped in egg then a mixture of paprika, pepper and oregano then fried served in a flaxseed/ linseed(uk) flat bread (after cooking it in the microwave I made garlic butter smeared it on the bread and toasted it). Simple green salad with spring onions(scallions) and cherry tomatoes. I made some lime mayo by adding a few drops of lime juice to a tablespoon of mayo. Net carb count : 6.5g (at the most, this is a cautiously generous calculation.

BROWNIE MOCK DANISH
2 ounces cream cheese
1 egg
4 teaspoons granulated Splenda or equivalent liquid Splenda
1 teaspoon cocoa
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

In a small, microwaveable bowl, soften the cream cheese on HIGH 30 seconds. Beat well with a spoon until creamy. Add the egg and beat very well until creamy; blend in remaining ingredients. Use a small rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl so that all the batter is in the bottom. Microwave on HIGH 30 seconds; rotate bowl (do not stir) and cook another 30 seconds. If center still looks too runny, cook another 30 seconds. May take up to 2 minutes total, depending on your microwave. Center should be a bit soft for the danish filling effect. Immediately, run a small rubber spatula around the danish, then under it to release from bowl. If you wait until it cools, it will be stuck to the bowl (or you could just eat it from the bowl). Transfer to a small plate. Cool until just warm or cool completely before eating.

Soy Sauce Chicken

boneless breasts
garlic cloves

Dump enough soy sauce to fill 1/2 of skillet w/ lid. Add in chicken breasts and cracked, peeled garlic. Cover and simmer for 45 mins or until chicken is done.

Confetti Quiche

6 eggs
6 oz cream cheese
1/2 onion (gotta kill the egg taste ), diced small
1/4 zucchini, diced small
1/4 yellow squash, diced small
1 roma tomato, diced small
1/2 c. frozen broccoli florets, chopped

Beat together eggs and cream cheese with a fork, big lumps of cream cheese is fine. Mix in veggies. Pour into a nonstick sprayed pan (I used a corning ware souffle and it turned out great, but stuck somewhat to pan ) and bake at 350 for 20-30 mins or until set.

Chicken Parmesan

1 chicken breast
1/4 c. spaghetti sauce (*see note)

*Note: We all know spaghetti sauce varies. Aside from low carb sauce and homemade the cheapest and most delicious I have found is a brand called Germano's. It has 3 carbs per 1/4 c. (better than the typical 9 in Ragu, Preggo and the like!). Only thing with it is, its more chunky and watery, less saucy. I'd say strain and run through processor to make sauce. It IS worth the effort as it is the best sauce I have ever had.

This is a combination of Quiche Italiano and the topping from Chicken and Spinach Parmesan. It came out delicious. Your family will enjoy this, even without pasta. It's not like a quiche so you'll need to spoon this out of the pan or cut it somewhat into squares and scoop it out with a big spatula. The parmesan topping goes perfect with this dish. This is a keeper.

Cauliflower Soup

1/2 head of cauliflower, washed and cut into florets
2 T. olive oil
2 cups of chicken broth (I use reduced sodium)
1/2 - 1 c. heavy cream
grated sharp cheese (as much as you like - I use about 1/2 c.)
chopped onion (I use maybe 1/2 cup)

In a large saucepan, saute the onion in olive oil 'til it's soft over med - low heat. *Add the cauliflower and saute it with the onions 'til the cauliflower shows a little golden color (about 7 min.) Add the chicken broth, cover saucepan and simmer until the cauliflower is soft. Let the mixture cool off the heat and put it in a blender and puree. You may need to do this in two batches. Return the pureed mixture to the saucepan and add cream, reheating over med.- low heat. Stir in the cheese and ground black or white pepper and serve. Don't add salt until you taste it; the cheese may be enough salt. This makes 4 - 6 servings. You can refrigerate leftover soup and reheat for another meal.

Meatloaf:

2lbs ground beef
1lb ground pork or sausage
2 eggs
1c. grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 onion finely minced
1-2 jalapeno peppers finely minced [as much heat as you like]
1-2 cloves minced garlic [add as much or as little as you like]
salt/pepper to taste
4 hard cooked eggs

Mix all ingredients except hard cooked eggs.

On a piece of foil paper, lay the ground meat mixture and form into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.

Cut the hard cooked eggs in half lengthwise.

Place 2 eggs [4 halfs] in a row across the meat leaving at least 1" from the top.

Using the foil, roll the meat away from you once to cover the eggs. Where the rolled edge meets the meat [away from you] place the 2nd row of egg halfs.

Using the foil again, roll to close and seal the ends by pinching the meat together.

Cooking options:

Oven for 1hr. at 350F topped with low carb ketchup or BBQ sauce.

Fry in a shallow pan until browned on each side and then simmer in tomato sauce for 1-2 hours.

8 slices of bacon, cooked and drained
3 ribs of celery finely chopped
1/4 c. chopped parsley (or chopped green onion tops if you like the flavor...or use both parsley and scallion tops)
Salt, freshly ground pepper to taste

Whisk the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, salt and pepper together in a small bowl. Add dressing to cauliflower florets. Add celery. Break the bacon into pieces and add bacon and parsley (or scallions). Chill for at least half an hour.

Halve the peeled eggs. Remove yolks, mash them fine (I use a fork or a potato masher) and add remaining ingredient sand mix. I wish I liked dill pickles, but I don't, so the Splenda and vinegar give me the taste of sweet relish. Garnish with paprika and/or finely chopped scallion tops or chives.
