Keto Mexican Cornbread

Low Carb Mexican CornbreadLow Carb Mexican CornbreadKeto Mexican Cornbread. If you don’t think this keto Mexican Cornbread tastes as close to real cornbread as you can get-then I will eat my Mexican sombrero. It’s spicy, filling, healthy, & will fill your kitchen with the aromas reminiscent of a Mexican restaurant. The best thing about this recipe? No almond meal anywhere to be found.  Perfectly paired with Firehouse Fresh Steak Chili

I think this may be my first “variegated paleo” dish. Variegated in that I subbed sour cream for vinegar and most paleo followers say no to dairy.  Hey, I tried it with vinegar and to my taste it was awful and…I like and use a lot of vinegar.

One of the things (and there are many) since I started this website is the emailing and phone conversations I have had with people from all over the country.  I have had the great pleasure in the last week of a running email exchange with health coach Jamie Koonce www.jamiekoonce.com who gave me a basic paleo coconut bread recipe and this is my very much added to and altered rendition. The basic recipe is delicious (and I will post it) but I did not care for the taste of the vinegar in it so I subbed it with sour cream. Jamie’s titles include: Holistic Nutritionist, Functional Medicine Practitioner, and Traditional Oriental Medicine Practitioner and if I lived in or near AR I would try to meet her. Jamie is also available to clients everywhere by phone and Skype.

  2. Blend first 4 ingredients in medium bowl.
  3. Beat eggs, add water, sour cream, 2 T oil, beat again then beat into dry ingredients.
  4. Blend in veggies and cheese. Let rest for a couple of minutes-it will thicken. Blend once again.
  5. Pour into round well oiled pan. (last ½ t oil)

Notes
  1. I use a small 6” springform pan for this which is perfect. There is also a 6” removable bottom cake pan made by Fat Daddio’s and I really like this company. There are several others and it you don’t use removable bottom pans you are missing the boat. I have different sizes and use them for lots & lots of things.
  2. If you decide to split this puppy with a buddy, and maybe with the addition of sausage or minced ham, it would make a great & somewhat different breakfast. Yeah, and maybe even with a side of bacon.
  3. Double the recipe, use an 8” round pan and cut into 8 slices.

What to say.  This Carbalose Bread Stuffing is another way I use Carbalose Flour.  Not all that often, but the problem is that I know way too many recipes and it takes me a while to cycle through a lot of them, and I have to say, I should make it more often because it is so good and a great accompaniment to many meals. Please see Carbalose Flour Bread. and you will need it to make this Low Carb Carbalose Bread Stuffing.

I don’t have a clue where any of you live but…if…you live either in the Pacific Northwest or British Columbia, Canada RossDown Chicken is hands down the best chicken I have eaten since I was a kid.  I have tried about every chicken product there is and this IS the best-ever. Not surprisingly, I bought my first one in a Halal market here in Portland and have never looked back when buying whole chicken.

  4. 1 C Water
  5. ½ C Butter
  6. 1 T Chicken Base***

  9. 1 t Poultry Seasoning
  10. ¼ t Pepper
  11. More Water To Moisten

  2. Cool slightly and add beaten eggs.
  3. Add additional 1 C warm water to celery onion mixture and pour all into dried bread cubes. Mix, let sit, and add water as/if needed until stuffing is moist.

Notes
  1. Low Carb Additions: sautéed mushrooms, oysters, spinach, sausage, pine nuts, almonds, sugar-free cranberries, and small diced Granny Smith apples.
  2. How we eat this: I cut out the backbone of a chicken, butterfly (spatchcock) it, butter a piece of foil, put the stuffing roughly in the shape of a heart, put the chicken on top of the stuffing, and bake it at 375 degrees for about 1¼-1½ hours and wahoo it’s so good. As the chicken cooks the juices and fat go into the stuffing.
  3. Needless to say this goes well under/with Cornish game hen.

Low Carb Ratatouille

Low Carb RatatouilleLow Carb RatatouilleLow Carb RatatouilleLow Carb Ratatouille SoupLow Carb Ratatouille. All I can say is leave it to the French-even their “peasants” know the fine art of cooking.  This is so good, makes a lot, and best of all it is easy to prepare.
Serve under/over eggs for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and yes, make a fabulous soup with the addition of more water and heavy cream. The best news is that the soup can be served cold, warm or hot.

Beware, if making jut soup best to make ½ a recipe or make it with left-over low carb ratatouille because it will make a LOT of soup. Probably 6 large bowls and 8-10 smaller cups.

Low Carb Cauliflower Au Gratin

Low Carb Cauliflower Au GratinLow Carb Cauliflower Au Gratin. Julia, Jacques, and me.  I certainly never thought I would put the three of us together in one sentence but here we are.  As you can plainly see I AM NOT in the picture alas…only in the sentence.  And then there was this guy who slipped in to grab a little of Julia’s thunder. It is funny, funny, funny.

All I have done is tweak this recipe to take out the carbs by eliminating the milk and flour.

Cauliflower Au Gratin
Print
Ingredients
  1. 1 Large Head Cauliflower
  2. ¼ t Salt
  3. 2½ C Heavy Cream
  4. 1 T Butter For Baking Dish
  5. Salt & Pepper
  6. 1 Pinch Nutmeg
  7. 1 t Chicken Base
  8. 1 C Grated Gruyere Cheese
Instructions
  1. Turn the cauliflower upside down, and cut all around the stem with a sharp knife, slicing off the tough leafy stems that are attached to it. Pick off any remaining leaf pieces that may still be attached. Do not cut the florets apart.
  2. Put the whole cauliflower, stem end down, into a large pot with two inches of water and ¼ t salt. Cover tightly and bring to a rapid boil. Cook until you can pierce a floret with a sharp knife (about 8 minutes). Carefully lift the cauliflower out of the pot and place it in the gratin dish to cool slightly.
  3. Turn the cauliflower upside down, and slice all around the core, through the floret stems, so the head falls apart. Arrange the florets in a single layer round side up, then chop up the cooked core and scatter the pieces in the dish.
  4. Pour cream into a saucepan and bring to simmer until thickened.
  5. Whisk in ¼ teaspoon pepper, chicken base and a pinch or two of nutmeg. Taste and adjust seasoning to your taste remembering that the cheese also has a lot of salt in it. The sauce should be thick, but pourable. If necessary, thin with a bit of water, stirring to blend well.
  6. Season the florets with ¼ t pepper, and scatter ½ cup of the grated cheese over the top. Set the gratin dish on a cookie sheet, then ladle or pour the sauce over the cauliflower. Sprinkle on the rest of the cheese, place in the oven and bake until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is starting to brown, about 20-25 minutes.

Notes
  1. I do think a bit of parmesan cheese on top would be terrific and I will try it next time I make this.
  2. Personally when it comes to cheese, I think more is better and if you do too-feel free to add more.
  3. DO AHEAD NOTE: The assembled gratin can be made several hours ahead if stored well wrapped in the refrigerator. Preheat the oven to 350F and allow 30 to 40 minutes for heating the gratin and browning the cheese.

  3. Mix eggs with onions, rosemary, garlic salt & pepper and mix this thoroughly into the ground beef and pork.
  4. Mix bread crumbs with parmesan cheese and spread onto a sheet of parchment paper about 10”x12”.
  5. With fingers, press meat mixture over crumbs.
  6. Sprinkle spinach down first then carrots, proscuitto, and top with cheese leaving about ½” at sides.
  7. Lifting parchment paper, roll the meatloaf tightly and press any unused crumbs into sides of meatloaf and scrunch in.

  14. 604 Calories, 43.8g Protein, 40.5g Fat, 16.0g Carbs, 8.4g Fiber, 7.6g Net Carbs
Notes
  1. Nutritionals include bread crumbs and if you don't want or have the bread crumbs crushed pork skins are a great substitute.
  2. Any good shaved deli ham will serve in place of the proscuitto and it will of course alter the taste a bit.
  3. Any leftovers can be used for fabulous meatloaf sandwiches or portioned & frozen for further dinners.
  4. You can also opt to wrap the meatloaf in bacon cause bacon never hurts anything.

Low Carb Almond Cookies

Low Carb Almond CookiesLow Carb Almond Cookies.  I was on the website www.realfoodcarolyn.com awhile ago and found a recipe called Awesome Almond Cookies.   She had permission to reprint the recipe but for us diabetics and low carbers it had loads of maple syrup in it so I decided to make them low carb.  All I can say is they are named appropriately and they are awesome. Low carb almond cookies are ridiculously easy and quick to make.

  4. 1T Almond Extract

  2. Combine dry ingredients.
  3. In separate bowl, combine liquid ingredients.
  4. Add in dry ingredients, mix until smooth and let sit for 10 minutes until thickened as in a soft cookie dough.
  5. Mix again and place by the spoonful (I use a scoop for uniformity) onto a Silpat or parchment lined baking sheet and bake 15-20 minutes or until browning begins at the edges. Cookies will spread and be relatively flat.

  1. I made them large with a #24 (3T) scoop and got exactly 12 cookies and with a #70 scoop (1T) I got exactly 36 so…3 smalls equal 1 large and you are probably less likely to eat 6 smalls than 2 large.

Low Carb Magic Bars

Low Carb Magic BarsLow Carb Magic Bars.  This is my rendition of the famous Eagle Brand recipe for Magic Bars. I personally never count calories because if you are really and truly eating LCHF calories do not matter.  You get and keep that “full feeling” from the fat you are eating.  Now I will admit these are not for the faint of heart if you are paying attention to calories and if you do then these are not for you but man oh man these are good, good, good and if nothing else you can use Step 1 to make Sweetened Condensed Milk. but really, why not just make the low carb magic bars?

I am betting from the number of servings (30) and the size of the pan that one Eagle Brand portion is about the size of a postage stamp.  Good luck on that one.  Apples to Apples about two servings of the original to one of mine with ten times the carb count.  Yikes!

Low Carb Carbalose Cherry Almond Bread Pudding

Low Carb Carbalose Cherry Almond Bread PuddingLow Carb Carbalose Cherry Almond Bread Pudding. Somewhere long ago and far away I was dabbling in the kitchen (better dabbling than babbling) and just kind of came up with this recipe.  Cherries and almonds are one of those food marriages made in heaven so I thought I would run a yes, high carby version of this as a special dessert item in the restaurant and it was a hit.  People would come back in to have a cup of coffee and bread pudding and I didn’t have it.  So…I decided to put it on the menu permanently and it stayed as a customer favorite.  Here it is in its low carb form and I absolutely cannot tell any difference and since you never had my restaurant version you definitely won’t know either.

Bread pudding, any bread pudding and that includes low carb carbalose cherry almond bread pudding begs for a sauce…any sauce…please, just give me a sauce and this is the way I served it in the restaurant.  So simple…so good…just warm & drizzled with a little heavy cream or better yet Sweetened Condensed Milk

I don’t care how you cut it traditional bread pudding has never been low carb but just a half cup with Carbalose Flour Bread is terrific and even a cup is only 6.8g net carbs and after a filling dinner?…I doubt you could begin to eat a full cup of this.

This is one of my easier recipes to make and you will need Carbalose Flour Bread cubes for it. All my other Carbalose Recipes are listed at the bottom of the Carbalose Informational Page.

Low Carb Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

Low Carb Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie DoughLow Carb Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. The other day I found two recipes on Robyn Stone’s website www.addapinch.com  and all I could do was drool.  They sounded so good I decided to low carb ‘em and now I can drool at my own concoctions.  This is the other one.  Candy Bar Dip

Low carb peanut butter chocolate chip cookie dough  is so simple it is ridiculous and an easy fix for unexpected company.  This is NOT a cookie dough for baked cookies, it’s a dough to eat with a spoon.  I know all of us low carbers eat a lot of peanut butter in many forms and this is just one more way.

Notes
  1. If you are serving this to guests save 1 T each chocolate, coconut, and almonds to sprinkle on top.
  2. No need to melt the coconut oil.
  3. I don’t know how to tell you to eat this stuff. We eat it with a spoon but for company you may want to serve it with thinly slices apple wedges.
  4. Toasting the coconut is not a necessity-it is just what I did.
  5. If it seems too thick add another tablespoon or two of heavy cream.
