Low Carb Creamy Chicken Noodle SoupYeah, Low Carb Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup.  Congers up children, comfort food, winter, a fireplace and probably lots of other things. As lowcarbers chicken noodle soup probably does not come to mind except we may miss it from time to time. If you only want plain ole soup then you may certainly sub stock for the “creamy” part but you will be missing the fat.

This low carb creamy chicken noodle soup is a very easy recipe to make lots & lots of and still have leftovers.  You will need one recipe of Spaetzle which act as the noodles.

LowCarb Macaroni And Cheese

LowCarb Macaroni And CheeseLowCarb Macaroni And CheeseLowCarb Macaroni And Cheese. This is a no messin around real deal lowcarb Macaroni and Cheese with real low carb pasta.  You will need a recipe of low carb Spaetzle  as your pasta and this should yield about 3 cups.  This is a super easy recipe to make including the Spaetzle.  If you want to gild your lily put a recipe of Au Gratin Casserole Topping on top.  This will add 1.5g net carbs per serving.

I use Gruyere cheese in mine but of course any good cheddar, Swiss or combination of cheeses will work.  If you can’t tell from some of my other recipes; Gruyere is definitely my cheese of choice.  My husband says I use too much of it (and yes, it is expensive) and I have to keep telling him to get over it.  I also happen to like a really creamy mac & cheese and if you don’t then use ½ C less cream.  Sprinkle some crumbled bacon on and Ooh La La.  This is extremely filling due to its high fat content.

Notes
  1. This is how I do it if I'm heating it later. I microwave everything on low until just warm. This way the cheese does not curdle and it takes far less time to cook overall.
  2. OK, now you can mess around a bit. You can add tuna or anything you want before you begin heating this dish and it will probably take an extra ¼ C of cream.
  3. If you like a crustier mac & cheese save some cheese for topping.
  4. Recipe easily doubles or triples.
