Low Carb Cooking

[Suzannesh 376]

Hi Everyone,

We are always talking about watching the amount of carbs that we eat each day. I keep trying to find ways to satisfy my needs to eat low carbs yet have delicious food. Well I discovered a new cookbook that I just love. :wub:

This guy was on QVC and I thought to myself these recipes and foods sounds so great—but do they really taste this good. They (QVC) has a policy that you can return anything in 30 days if you don’t like what you purchased, so what did I have to lose—NOT a thing.

OK, I LOVE this book.

For Breakfast I made “cheese Danish Dreams” Doesn’t this sound good? It has 260 Calories Fat: 24 grams, Protein: 10.5 grams. Fiber: 0 Grams and Net Carbs: 2 grams. Prep time 5min. Cook time 2 min Serves 2

Shopping List:

4 ounces cream cheese, softened

2 large eggs

2 tablespoons Splenda

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1. Add all of the ingredients to a bowl and mix with a fork until smooth.
   
2. Pour the mixture evenly into the bottom of 2 microwaveable Cereal bows and microwave on high for 2 minutes, until springy around the outside and soft in the center.
   
3. Use spatula to remove Danishes from bottom of bowls, and let cool 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
   
4. You can top with additional cinnamon and sugar substitute before serving, or add fresh berries or sliced almonds to the cent for something even better. I had fresh Raspberries and it was so good.
   

The Book is called “Still Livin Low Carb and the author is George Stella.

The cost of the book is $17.67 plus postage of $6.72 for a total cost of $24.39.

In 3 ½ years I have never recommended a cookbook, but this is one that I thought you would really enjoy

For dinner we had Flourless Focaccia bread that was like a pizza. It is GREAT and made with Soy & Flaxseed Flour. Net Carbs: 4.5 grams.

Sometimes I am just looking for new ideas and this truly was an inspiration to me to find this book.

I didnt run across that one yet. I am going buy it right now. My wife and kid n I was discussing our new diet being I just got sleeved last friday. I dont plan on starving them but correcting their bad hi carb diets which I was guilty of before also. Nothing better than a complete family change so a variety in cookbooks sure do keep things interesting.
