Flakes of coconut are just larger --> here.

I'd wonder how much sugar/carbs are in those tasty little orbs of goodness.

No worries, Clay. This recipe likely would fit better on the vegetarian thread though because Low carb or Paleo eating plans do not include some of the items in the recipe, even though it does sound good.

If you want unsweetened coconut you can buy it online or at your health food store. The stuff carried by most grocery stores has sugar added, same with dried fruit.

Found some of my favorite, most used items at great prices:

Unsweetened Organic Shredded Coconut at WalMart for about $2/bag

Organic Virgin Coconut Oil at Aldi for about $6/jar

Almond flour at Aldi for about $7/bag

If you like peaches and Chipotle you're going to love this bbq sauce!

Maple Peach Barbecue Sauce
Paleo friendly, Vegan and Glutenfree. This no tomato, barbecue sauce and it is sweet and spicy and tangy. Brush it over chicken in the last few minutes of grilling.

Ingredients
2 teaspoons avocado oil or organic canola oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground chipotle chili powder
¼ teaspoon cumin
Generous pinch allspice
2 peaches, peeled and diced
¼ cup dark pure maple syrup
4 teaspoons cider vinegar

Instructions
1. Swirl oil in the bottom of a large saucepan. Add onion, cover and place over medium heat.
Cook, removing lid and stirring occasionally until the onion is softened and starting to brown, 12
to 15 minutes. Sprinkle salt, chipotle, cumin, and allspice and cook stirring until the spices are
fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add peaches, maple syrup and vinegar, and stir to coat. Cover and
increase heat to medium high. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium low or to maintain a
gentle simmer and cook until the peaches are completely soft and breaking down, 4 to 5
minutes. Transfer to a blender and puree until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids.)
Cool before using.

My weight loss doctor gave me this recipe

2 Ingredient Low Carb Pancakes

2 ounces cream cheese
2 eggs

Blend until smooth (I use a Magic Bullet).
Let batter sit for a couple of minutes so the bubbles settle down.

Cook in non-stick pan on medium heat (just like regular pancakes).

Makes 4 pancakes.

The entire pancake recipe has about 390 cal, 3g carbs and 17g protein.

I add a pinch of cinnamon and 1 tsp of Stevia powder to my batter.

These are awesome with butter and sugar free syrup. Aldi has wonderful sugar free syrups - Blueberry, Blackberry and Raspberry.

Last weekend my husband was craving a Philly Cheese Steak but didn't want to tempt me by bringing bread into the house so we came up with this alternative using what we had on hand. It was fabulous and we'll be making this again!!

Philly Cheese Steak Stuffed Peppers

3 green peppers cut lengthwise and seeded
1 lb ground beef
1 onion sliced thin
Sliced Portobello mushrooms
Sliced white American cheese
2 TBSP Worcestershire sauce
1 TBSP garlic powder
1 TBSP onion powder
Olive oil

Preheat oven to 400.

Mix meat, Worcestershire, garlic powder and onion powder. Let sit while you prepare the other ingredients.

Place peppers cut side up on parchment covered baking sheet and roast in oven until they're done to your taste.

Saute onions and mushrooms in olive oil until soft. Set aside and brown ground meat.

Place a slice of cheese inside each pepper half then fill layering meat, onions and mushrooms. Top with more cheese and bake for about 10-15 minutes until done to your taste.

Makes 6 servings.
