Low Carb Way Of Life

Low Carbin It

5 eggs, separated
1 cup vanilla whey protein or egg white protein
4-8 tablespoons of cinnamon (depends on how much you like cinnamon!)

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Separate the eggs and whip the whites until very stiff. Slowly add in the whey protein. Blend until smooth and then very gently add in the yolks (try to keep the whites fluffy).Grease a bread pan and pour the mixture into the pan. Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes. Turn off the oven and leave the bread in to cool slowly. After an hour, take the bread out. Once totally cool, cut into 12 large slices. I love mine toasted with cream cheese! It also makes great French toast.

Low Carbin It

1 1/2 cup Vanilla Whey
1 1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 egg
1 cup butter
1/2 cup erythritol and 1 package Splenda

Preheat oven 350o

Mix all ingredients until well blended. Drop by tablespoons on to an ungreased cookie sheet bake for 7-10 minutes

Low Carbin It

1/2 cup vanilla whey (Jay Robb...no sugar)
3/4 cup almond flour (doesn't need to be blanched, but helps:)
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon iodized sea salt
1/4 cup butter or coconut oil
1 tsp cinnamon
2 teaspoons Truvia (or Yacon syrup)
2 TBS vanilla almond milk (just enough to hold dough together)

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). In a medium bowl, stir together the whey, almond flour, baking soda and salt. Cut in the butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the butter lumps are smaller than peas. Stir in the almond milk and sweetener to form a stiff dough. On parchment paper (lightly sprayed with olive oil spray), roll the dough out to 1/8 inch in thickness. Cut into squares and "score" with a fork (to look like graham crackers). Place squares 1 inch apart onto cookie sheets. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes in the preheated oven, until edges are lightly browned. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.

Enjoy with a glass of unsweetened vanilla almond milk: 40 calories, 0 sugar (comparred to skim milk: 90 calories, 12g sugar)

Nutritional Info for the WHOLE Batch (using Truvia): 995 calories, 19 carbs, 9 fiber

1 pound ground beef, or thinly sliced beef
Butter, for frying
Half a small onion
LOTS OF MUSHROOMS:)
1 tsp tomato paste
1 clove crushed garlic
2 cups beef broth
1/2 cup sour cream

Fry the meat and mushrooms in butter on medium/high heat. Remove from the skillet and sautee onions and garlic till onions are tender. Add tomato paste, then the meat. Pour enough beef broth to almost cover the meat. Simmer on low till meat is tender, about 1 1/2 hour... and about 30 minutes for ground beef. Most of the broth should have evaporated. Taste and add salt and pepper to taste. Add in the sour cream and heat through.

Serve over Cabbage noodles

Low Carbin It

3 egg whites
1/8 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (frozen, I put mine in the freezer the night before)

Kernel's White Cheddar Popcorn Seasoning

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Put the frozen cheese in a food processor chop, until it's in tiny little pieces.

In a mixing bowl, blend the first two ingredients, at high speed, until whites form stiff peaks. Sprinkle the chopped cheese, on top of the egg whites. Then, with a a rubber spatula, fold the cheese into the egg whites, VERY CAREFULLY, being careful not to disturb the fluffy whites, but thoroughly spread the cheese, throughout.

Carefully place the mixture into a large Ziplock baggie, cut a ½ inch hole in the corner of baggie. Gently squeeze onto cookie sheet in CHEETO-like shapes. Grease cookie sheet,very well. Lightly sprinkle popcorn seasoning on top of each puff.
Bake at 300 degrees, for 30 minutes. (The longer you can bake them without them getting too brown, the crispier they will be.) Let cool, Store in a tightly sealed, air-tight container.

* These are sooooooo good I am going to make a double batch tomorrow*

Chewy Nut Cookies

Makes eight to twelve cookies

1 cup blanched almond flour
2 tablespoons organic unsalted butter
1/4 cup Slenda
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon aluminum-free baking powder
1/16 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup chopped, toasted pecans

Preheat oven to 275

Chop pecans, and toast them for 12 minutes. Melt butter. Stir together all ingredients except almond flour and pecans. Mix in almond flour until a smooth dough forms, then fold in nuts until dispersed throughout dough. Shape into flat cookie rounds on parchment paper. Bake for 12-18 minutes, or until slightly browned around the edges. Let cookies cool and harden for a full 10 minutes before removing from parchment.

Cake Layer
1 Egg
1 oz Cream Cheese
1 Tablespoon Butter
1 Tablespoon cocoa powder
1 Tablespoon Powdered Erythirol
1 Scoop Stevia (the little spoon that comes with it)
6 Drops liquid Splenda

Egg, Soften Cream Cheese, and Butter to room temperature. Mix everything except Egg on high until very well blended, then add egg and mix on low till blended. Bake at 375 for about 15 minutes. This will rise very high, and fall quite a bit, but thats ok, that's what gives the cake layer its dense texture. Makes (2) 4" round cakes. Cool in refrigerator while preparing other layers. This has a great "cake like" texture, and the Erythritol lends itself well.

Mint layer
2 1/3 Tablespoons Butter
1 oz Cream Cheese
14 drops Mint Extract (I used the liquid Stevia dropper)
2 Tablespoons Powdered Erythritol 13 drops Liquid Splenda
2 Scoops Stevia (the little spoon that comes with it)

Soften Butter and Cream Cheese to room temperature. Mix all ingredients till blended. Spread onto cooled cake layer. The Erythritol does have a cooling effect in this layer, and even a little grit, but it's no big deal since it's a mint layer anyway, and the grit isn't overbearing when combined with the other two layers.

Chocolate Topping
2 Squares Lindt 85 % Chocolate Bar
1/2 Tablespoon Butter
1 1/2 teaspoons Heavy Cream
14 drops Liquid Splenda

Melt all ingredients in skillet or microwave. Spread on top of mint layer and sides. This is very tasty, similar to chocolate frosting!

Low Carbin It

3/4 cup Splenda Granular
1/4 cup whole or skim milk powder (Hispanic section of Super Wal*mart)
3 tablespoons whipping cream (or evaporated milk)
2 tablespoons powdered erythritol
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon olive oil
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 oz (2 squares) unsweetened baking chocolate

In blender, combine Splenda Granular, milk powder, whipping cream, erythritol, butter, water, olive oil and vanilla extract; blend. In cereal bowl, place 2 squares baking chocolate. Pour boiling water over chocolate and pour off when molten (test with a sharp, pointy knife). Add to blender; blend until combined. Spread in two mini loaf pans, or whatever metal or glass pan you have on hand and freeze. Cuts easily right out of the freezer with a blunt knife into pieces for a nice chocolate fix and pick-me-upper.

8 slices of large, deli sliced peperoni, thin
slices of cheese, I use cheddar and Parmesan

Put a small amount cheese in the center of peperoni, cover with another slice. Microwave for 1 minute. Peperoni seals itself (usually) and forms a pocket for the cheese. Transfer to a paper towel.

You can stuff the peperoni with so many other ingredients such as: mozzarella and pizza sauce, riacotta and meatball pieces, jalapenos and taco cheeses. The list goes on!!

Low Carbin It

1 pound ground beef
1/2 cup onion, chopped,
4-8 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 can diced green chilies
fresh chopped garlic to taste. If I don't have fresh garlic then I just add garlic powder or garlic salt.
2-3 eggs
black pepper, salt to taste.

Brown the meat and onion. Beat the eggs with the cream in a large bowl. Add the meat and cheese and mix well. Pour into a greased 9 1/2-10" pie plate. Bake at 400º 25-30 minutes until browned and it appears set. Let stand 10-15 minutes before cutting to allow to firm up.

If you want to spice it up even more, you can use Jalapeno Jack cheese for part of the cheddar cheese above.. gives it a WONDERFUL KICK.....

I make a couple of these at a time so that there is some left over to freeze. I put these in the 3 svg size bowls. But I also put a few 1 svg size in little bowls or aluminum foil, to take out and nuke for a quick snack or lunch.

Makes 6 servings
Can be frozen

Cauliflower Lasagna

2 cups (about 10 ounces) cooked cauliflower, grated, riced or shredded

4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (16 ounces)

2 eggs

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Spray 2 rectangular cookie sheets with non-stick spray.

Put cauliflower in bullet (blender) until mash potato like, mix with 4 cups of the mozzarella and the eggs in a bowl. Spread on cookie sheets in thin layers by plopping the dough about and then carefully pressing together (or apart). Keep fingers working until the dough forms a large rectangle roughly the size of the cookie sheet. Repeat with other sheet, pressing out until the dough is distributed. If it turns out you don’t have as much dough, press a longer, more narrow rectangle, roughly the length of the pan and half of the width, to keep noodle length uniform.

Bake in oven for 15 minutes, or until top is golden and edges are lightly browned.

Remove from heat and let rest for 10 minutes. Carefully run a metal spatula around the edges of the noodles to loosen and cool for 15-20 minutes.

Using a pizza cutter or a knife, cut noodles lengthwise in fairly even strips about 2” wide. With a spatula, you will be able to lift and loosen noodles from the pan and handle them in your hands as you would regular lasagna noodles.

Turn oven down to 3750

Filling

1 large container ricotta cheese
2 packages of shredded mozzarella (reserve some for topping)
5 package of Splenda
1 egg beaten

Also
3 cups LC tomato sauce
Fillings such as: meatballs, sausage, olives, veggies

Mix filling
Pour about 1- 1/2 cups of sauce on bottom of pan
Put one layer of C-Noodles, then put fillings on.
Put one layer of C-Noodles, over that, then the ricotta, another layer of C-macaroni and then another 1-1/2 cups of sauce.
Top with Mozzarella bake for 45 minutes

Peanut Butter Protein Bars

¼ cup butter
½ cup peanut butter (pref chunky) at room temperature
4oz cream cheese, softened
1 ¾ cups vanilla flavored whey protein powder
1 Tablespoon vanilla
2 tablespoons Slenda
½ cup chopped peanuts

Melt the butter (a microwave works well for this), and add the peanut butter and softened cream cheese to it. Mix together with a spoon (no need to drag out a blender or mixer), and then add the protein powder, vanilla, Splenda and peanuts; stir well. (It will be very crumbly)

Taste and see if it is sweet enough. If not, add a little more Splenda.

Press the mixture firmly into an 8x8 inch pan. Slice into 12 pieces and put the whole pan in the freezer. Remove when the bars are firm.
Yield: 12 bars, each with 9 grams of carb, 1 gram of fiber, for a total of 8 grams of usable carbs and 31 grams of protein.
*For storage, it’s a good idea to package these in individual zipper –lock bags in the freezer.

Low Carbin It

1 cup sugar free chocolate
1 stick of butter
1/2 cup Sweetener (I use an Erythritol/Stevia blend - the original recipe called for 3/4 cup but they were too sweet for me)
2 large eggs
3/4 cup Almond flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Heat oven to 375°F. Melt 1 cup chocolate chips and butter in 1-quart saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally, until smooth (OK right I suppose you could, but seriously 1 minute in the microwave in a mixing bowl worked fine). Pour into medium bowl; cool 5 minutes. Add sugar and eggs to cooled chocolate; mix well. Gradually stir in flour. Stir in remaining chocolate chips and vanilla.

Place foil or paper mini muffin cups (1 1/4-inches wide at bottom) into mini muffin pans. Spoon chocolate mixture into each cup, filling 3/4 full. Bake for 10 to 13 minutes or until center is set. Cool completely.
Makes 3 dozen gems.

TIP: If you don’t have a mini muffin pan, use foil (NOT PAPER) mini muffin cups and place onto ungreased cookie sheet. Fill as directed. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes.

TIP: Foil mini muffin cups vary in size. Measure across the bottom of the cup to make sure you have the correct size for specified baking time.

TIP: Smaller mini muffin cups (1-inch wide at bottom) will yield 4 dozen gems. Bake as directed.

Low Carbin It

2 eggs
3 tablespoon of butter
1-1/2 scoops of whey protein (chocolate or vanilla
2 big spoonfuls of cream cheese
2 packets of Splenda (optional)

Melt butter, then mix egg, whey protein, cream cheese and Splenda into bowl. Stir up until only a view lumps are left. But in oven dish and bake at 375-400 degrees. I only put it in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, because then the outside is nice and fluffy while the inside is still nice and creamy!!!

Artisan Flat Bread (Ciabatta/Foccacia)

Preheat oven to 350

8 oz cream cheese
4 eggs
1/2 cup almond flour
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
3/4 cup Atkins bake mix (I use the homemade Atkins mix instead of recipe to follow)
1 teaspoon fresh minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tsp baking powder
1 cup shredded Italian cheeses (I use pre-shredded from the store)
2 teaspoon of assorted herbs such as: garlic, basil, oregano
1 tablespoon of olive oil

Mix the first 9 ingredients in the food processor until smooth.
Then by hand mix in Italian cheese

Pour out onto a jelly roll pan lined with parchment and spread from edge to edge evenly with a spatula - it is sticky and this will take some time (if you use a smaller pan it will be very thick and you can't make sandwiches with it)

Sprinkle with assorted herbs
Bake until nicely browned on top (my oven is about 30 minutes, but watch it from 20 on)

Remove from oven and brush with oil
Pop out of pan and cool on a wire racks.

For 12 servings I get the following per serving:

In a small covered saucepan, bring 2 inches water to a boil. Separate broccoli tops into florets, discarding lower stalks or reserving for soup. Salt water and add broccoli florets. Cook covered 3 to 5 minutes. Drain broccoli and set on cutting board. Chop broccoli florets into small pieces.

Heat a small nonstick pan over medium high to high heat. Add oil, cracked garlic and chicken. Season with salt and pepper. Brown chicken breast cut for stir-fry or tenders until lightly golden all over, 3 to 5 minutes. Chop sauteed chicken and garlic on a cutting board into small pieces.

To assemble pizza, dot crust with chopped broccoli bits and cooked chopped chicken. Dot crust with spoonfuls of ricotta and spread ricotta gently with the back of your spoon. Add sliced sun-dried tomatoes, scattering them around the pizza to the edges. Complete the assembly with a thin layer of shredded mozzarella, about 1 cup. Place pizza in oven on middle rack and lower heat to 450 degrees F. Bake 12 minutes, until cheese is deep golden in color and crust is brown and crisp at the edges. Remove pizza from the oven and let stand 5 minutes. Top with lots of torn or shredded basil. Cut pizza into 8 slices using pizza wheel and serve

Cool Whip

This is good for about 2 cups of cream.

Soak 1/2 teaspoon of plain gelatin in 1 tablespoon of cold water for 5 minutes.

Place the gelatin and cold water in a heat resistant container and set in a small pan of very hot water just until the gelatin is dissolved. If heating on a stove, do not allow the gelatin to boil.

After gelatin has dissolved, set it aside to cool. Allow it to cool to about body temperature. Note: if the gelatin is too hot it will deflate the whipped cream when it is added and if it is allowed to cool too much it will thicken too much and not incorporate into the cream.

Whip the cream, and add the gelatin after the sweetener and flavoring has been whipped in but before the cream forms soft peaks.

Once the gelatin is incorporated in the whipped cream, beat until cream forms soft peaks, and then stop beating with the electric mixer. Finish whipping with a wire balloon whisk to bring the cream to the desired consistency.

If the whipped cream is to be spread on a cake or dessert, use immediately because it will set quickly and become difficult to spread.

Low Carb Doughnut Holes (4 carbs for whole recipe)

1 large egg
1/4 cup melted butter
2 tablespoons Splenda
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder
Splenda
cinnamon -- for topping

Taste- and texture-wise, these fall somewhere in between true doughnuts and funnel cakes. They cook very fast, so make sure you have everything on hand!

Heat about 1 inch of oil in a heavy skillet until it's hot enough for frying. While the oil heats, beat the egg lightly with the melted butter, then add the Splenda, protein powder, and vanilla. Whisk together until all the lumps are pretty much broken up, then let it rest a minute or two and whisk a bit more (batter will still have a grainy look to it, but that's fine). Using a large tablespoon or serving spoon, drop the batter by large tablespoonfuls into the hot oil in batches of 4. Fry until bottoms are golden-brown, which will only take a few seconds, then flip. Drain on paper towels, then sprinkle with Splenda and cinnamon to taste and serve hot.

Makes about 8 doughnut holes, servings 2-4.

Homemade Creme Eggs
Makes 8 large eggs

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Splenda (add an extra teaspoon for a very sweet filling)
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla

Heat butter, cream, and Splenda, stirring over over low heat until butter is completely melted. Whisk in egg yolk and cook over medium-low heat until mixture coats the back of a wooden spoon (should take 3-5 minutes). It will leave a trail when you drag your finger across the back of the spoon. Remove from heat and add vanilla. Strain through a fine mesh sieve. Taste and add a tiny pinch more Splenda if necessary. If when cooking the custard you start seeing little tiny cooked pieces of egg white, immediately pull from the the heat and strain mixture. It will still be good. Chill until cool to the touch.

"Milk" Chocolate Egg Shells

Makes 8 egg shells

2 ounces unsweetened chocolate (Ghirardelli)
2 tablespoons powdered nonfat milk , optional
2 1/8 tablespoons Splenda
2 teaspoons shortening

Powder sweetener and powdered milk with the flat blade on a Magic Bullet, or your coffee grinder. Whirl for at least one minute until it becomes an extra fine powder. Do not open canister immediately in order to allow the powdered mixture to settle. In a large microwave safe bowl, break chocolate into chunks, and add shortening. Heat chocolate mixture for 35 seconds on HIGH and stir. Heat in 10 second intervals, stirring each time, until melted and smooth. Dump in powdered mixture, and fold around the bowl with a spatula until smooth. It will look clumpy and thick at first, but you will be able to smooth it out. Reheat in microwave for 10-15 seconds. Fill molds, spreading chocolate up the sides with your fingertips or the back of a tiny measuring spoon. Chill in freezer, and repeat, only spreading chocolate around the top edges (which tend to be too thin since the chocolate sinks into the middle of the molds. Don't worry if the inside looks messy--the outside will still look perfect. Smooth the top edges of the chocolate shells to ensure that they'll fit together. Chill again. Pop out of mold using gentle pressure on the backs of the wells, along with rapping the plastic tray on the counter. Fill one egg half with filling. On another egg half, paint a thin line of extra chocolate along the top edges. Stick the second half over the first, pressing firmly to seal. Let set for five minutes. Eat!
