Fresh lemons, what to make with them

[bayareanan 24]

I just took fresh lemons off my tree and am trying to decide what to make with them.

I just bought this house last year so this is my first crop.

But with spaghetti squash instead of spaghetti! And obviously skipping the seeds if you can't/shouldn't have them. I would eat the crap out of that!

Also, kale is an excellent source of both Fiber and Protein.

Here are some homemade Protein bar recipes that use fresh lemon:

Here is a Protein fluff: http://www.epicureanbb.com/post/23603550445/lemon-protein-fluff-with-custard-sauce

The carbs and calories are REALLY high - I assume that is due to the specific Protein powder and milk she is using. I would substitute your regular Protein Powder that is low carb and you can use unsweetened coconut milk in place of regular milk and it has basically no carbs. There are other milk substitutions that are lower carb than skim milk, too. It looks yummy!

Thanks for the yummy ideas. I have enough lemons to try them all. Going to take some to my DIL too.

I eat cucumbers with lemon and salt. I also love lemon in my salad (spinach), ad on fruit. You can also use it for shrimp ceviche.

Ooh, I second on some fish. Some salmon with a little dill and some butter...

Now I'm hungry
