Low Carb Creamed Vegetables

Low Carb Creamed VegetablesLow Carb Creamed Vegetables. If you can make a creamed soup you can make creamed vegetables.  There’s no getting around it, these are good.  If you want to make a complete meal with this put it over a cup of cooked spaghetti squash just as you would for Traditional Spaghetti Squash/Tomato Sauce and add some shredded cheese on top.  It is pretty easy to see if you have looked at many of my recipes that I do not use green peppers.  The reason is simple:  I  don’t like them.  I can eat them in a pinch and when cornered but I try never to let myself get stuck in a corner. To get yourself ahead of the game this is what I do.  I have already done some Future Cooking by Sauteing Mushrooms & Vegetables and about every other week I do a LOT of Blistered Bell Peppers & Onions and if you do this you are already halfway home.  You will notice the absence of peas and corn because both are nothing but little sugar bombs and not good for a diabetic.

Mini Mozzarella BallsIf you want to razzle dazzle dinner guests you can put Au Gratin Casserole Topping on your low carb creamed vegetables it but it certainly is just fine to go with only the Parmesan, maybe some crushed pork skins or your own favorite cheese.  I actually mixed in some mini mozzarella cheese pearls…oh the gooeyness of cheese. You may see a few okra chunks peeking here and there in the picture because…uh…I forgot to buy an eggplant.

Low Carb Crunchy Deep Fried Chicken Chips

Low Carb Crunchy Deep Fried Chicken ChipsLow Carb Crunchy Deep Fried Chicken ChipsLow Carb Crunchy Deep Fried Chicken Chips are an easy fix and yes, even your pickiest little eaters will love them.  I happen to think they are wonderful with Smoky Sweet & Sour Dipping Sauce, Huli BBQ Sauce or Rosemary Aioli but whatever your favorite sauce, please use it.  I also like dipping these in a sour cream ranch dressing which I know is disgusting but it works for me.  I haven’t tried this but you could mix a little Dijon mustard with crushed garlic and a tad of sweetener and honestly it is kind of fun to have 2-3 sauces to try.  And yea, if you have kids they may want ketchup.  If you think McDonalds has anything on these Low Carb Crunchy Deep Fried Chicken Chips you had better think again.  As you look at the nutritionals these have virtually zero carbs but they do have some serious fat and protein.

Notes
  1. As I said I use tallow (or whatever else is in my larder) to fry my chips and if they are fried properly they will not absorb much fat at all and with that said, FYI, I have added 1 T of fat into the calorie count but I seriously doubt it has even 1 T in an order.
  2. Yes, you can use breast meat as well.
  3. I actually use my own homemade yogurt mixed in with the egg but it is totally interchangeable with sour cream.

Low Carb Vegetable Drizzle

Vegetable DrizzleVegetable DrizzleLow Carb Vegetable Drizzle is an extension of Leek Salad/Egg/Dijon Mustard Sauce.  The only change I made was to switch out the white wine vinegar with balsamic vinegar. I haven’t tried it on everything…yet, but I am pretty sure this could be drizzled on just about any vegetable and me?…I love it on hard boiled eggs and if you have asparagus with the eggs, oh boy is it good on that too.  It of course makes a terrific salad dressing with the addition of a minced shallot, a little garlic and whatever your favorite herbs de jour may be.  Add some Italian Grinder and put it on Cucumber Tomato & Red Onion Salad for a little extra zip.  So have at it as you can doctor this basic drizzle any way you want to.

Low Carb Vegetable Bundles

Low Carb Vegetable BundlesLow Carb Vegetable Bundles.  I have been making these Vegetable Bundles for many years and mostly for dinner guests. They are as good as they are elegant and I guarantee they are well worth it.   One nice thing about them is that they can be made ahead and kept in the fridge until ready for your guests.  I’ve seen some pretty innovative ways of tying vegetables together and a lot of people tie them with bacon which seems a good idea for green beans, except in this case the flavor of bacon might clash with the delicate flavor of the herbs.  You may have your own favorite vegetable combination and that’s really what cooking is all about-making something your own. So have fun with these low carb vegetable bundles and do yourself proud.

Low Carb Zippy Clam Dip

Low Carb Zippy Clam DipLow Carb Zippy Clam DipLow Carb Zippy Clam DipLow Carb Zippy Clam DipLow Carb Zippy Clam Dip. I don’t know about you but if I am going to have clam dip I sure as heck want it Zippy Clam Dip and to have it taste strongly like clams.  This recipe is both.  If you are making it for company then it might be a good idea to serve some kind of crackers along with your crudités and these Sour Cream & Chive Crackers will fill the bill very well but for me pork rinds have become my go-to dip partner.  If you seriously want to go nuts then serve it with cold shelled shrimp for that “seafood overload” feeling and it is seriously good. I’ve shown a picture of the left over clam juice because it is so good to drink and you get a LOT of juice.

Now I’ve seen recipes that include chopped bell red peppers but since you may be using pepper chips I would skip them in the dip and Lord knows I love, love, love bacon and I have also seen and tasted it in clam dip, but as I said I want to be able to actually taste clams and this recipe allows it.  This is best left in the refrigerator over night (yeah, right) but it will be better if ya do.  Taste & add salt only if necessary as depending on the reserved juice used, it can be salty on its own.

Low Carb CruditesCrudités vegetables can include about anything you want.  I would not use broccoli or cauliflower with this as they can be a little overpowering but otherwise about anything else you like will work.  I like thinly sliced carrot and cucumber coins, celery sticks, sliced radishes, snap peas, fennel leaves, endive leaves, cherry tomato halves, mushrooms, jicama sticks, pepper chips and even asparagus spears.  If and when you have any leftovers you can just include them in a salad and to fancy things up a little put your low carb zippy clam dip in a hollowed out cabbage or yellow or orange pepper.  Unless you are trying to impress people or feeding an army you won’t, in 1,000 years use all the listed vegetables so just choose your favorites and have fun.

Low Carb Hunter Chicken

Low Carb Hunter ChickenLow Carb Hunter Chicken. One can only imagine the origins but it is not an American dish.  It was a meal made at the end of a day of hunting with likely lots of root vegetables and whatever meat may have been at hand.  Squirrel or rabbit anyone?  Now we know that the Italians love their wine so what better way to braise meat?  White wine can be subbed for the red wine but my preference is red.  The original was probably Chianti  but um, I don’t drink Chianti.

Low Carb Kimchi Chicken Thighs

Low Carb Kimchi Chicken ThighsLow Carb Kimchi Chicken Thighs. Many of you may think of these as very hot & spicy which it certainly can be but with the addition of the tomatoes and wine I think you will find it’s not that spicy.  Kimchi is the national dish of Korea and there is a battle royal with Japan for not only who makes the best kimchi but who made it first. Uh, I don’t know but I do know it is a super healthy fermented food. Here is what Dr. Mercola says. Low carb kimchi chicken thighs are seriously to die for.

KimchiSeveral years back in my local New Seasons Market I said to a fellow in the produce department that I know, and knew wasn’t the right person, that I wanted to talk to the resident store expert about kimchi. Well, set me back on my heels and blow me over with a feather. Turns out David is the resident expert, had been making his own kimchi for many years and proceeded to tell me more than I ever wanted to know and now, because of David, I have eaten kimchi ever since. Now I do not make my own (what a pity) and this is the brand I do use WildBrine.  Sometimes I eat the Japanese version and sometimes the Korean version and for this recipe you can use any kimchi you can get your hands on.

Low Carb Crab Stuffed Sole Packages

Low Carb Crab Stuffed Sole PackagesLow Carb Crab Stuffed Sole PackagesLow Carb Crab Stuffed Sole Packages. OK, so a couple of weeks ago I did a recipe for Crab Stuffed Shrimp/Béarnaise Sauce and since there are not many people in my little family I still had leftovers of everything.  Already thinking ahead, I bought four filets of sole and made this the next evening. Once you have the crab stuffing it is even easier to make the sole because there is no shrimp peeling. Again you will need the recipe for Sauce Béarnaise to complete the dish.  As you look at the pictures it’s pretty easy to see these make nice little low carb crab stuffed sole packages to wow dinner guests.

Low Carb Chicken In Buttery Vinegar

Low Carb Chicken In Buttery VinegarLow Carb Chicken In Buttery Vinegar. Interesting story here.  I first made chicken in buttery vinegar somewhere in about 1993.  Back then it was with turkey medallions but my recipe is the same otherwise.  I made it over and over because not only was it fantastic, it was also very easy.  The only recipe I was able to find was Saveur Magazine’s Grilled Turkey With Cracked Pepper, Caramelized Onion, & Vinegar who gave credit to chef Mary Sue Milliken of the TV program Two Hot Tamales fame and who can remember everything?  I may have seen their recipe on their show.  I would never question the origins of this recipe and I am putting it up because it is so good.  I am subbing chicken for turkey and of course if you want to use turkey-go for it.  The cool thing is, I wasn’t thinking about low carb well over 20 years ago but sometimes…I was eating that way and low carb chicken in buttery vinegar is a good example.

Who couldn’t love this dipping sauce to dab meaty snacks into?  Well, I do do and this is perfect for any game day and ideal for chicken wings, Bacon Wrapped Shrimp or bacon wrapped chicken bites.

Keto Crab Stuffed Shrimp

Low Carb Crab Stuffed ShrimpLow Carb Crab Stuffed ShrimpKeto Crab Stuffed Shrimp. OK  so this just came to me in a flash.  I was fixing Stuffed Shrimp which is certainly lowcarb and fabulous when it dawned on me:  Why not take the same ingredients in the stuffing, omit the Carbalose Flour Bread crumbs and use crab meat to do this keto Crab Stuffed Shrimp with Béarnaise Sauce instead.  Oh Lordy, I love flashbulb moments and this was one of them. Low Carb Crab Stuffed ShrimpI had just purchased & picked a fresh dungeness crab and had lots left over after making Veal Oscar (Also See Steak Oscar) so…I experimented.  I also already had leftover Sauce Béarnaise from the same Oscar so testing this was a piece of cake. I don’t know what to say except this is unbelievable.  This may be my all time company-for-dinner recipe and the great thing…it is so easy. Guaranteed to WOW friends and family.
