In my quest for different breakfast ideas, I bought some smoked salmon and cream cheese at Trader Joes. I did roll-ups and they tasted like bagels (kind of and minus the bagels) lox and cream cheese.
It was a treat. I have truly discovered this week that I just can't eat carbs. Ever since my cracker episode last week; the cravings are back. It shocks me because I have eaten so few net carbs each day since December and was not craving them at all. Time to get clean again.

Low Carb Cauliflower Breadsticks
Low Carb Cauliflower Breadsticks with fresh herbs, garlic, and lots of ooey gooey cheese atop a cauliflower crust looks and tastes like cheesy bread. Author: Life Tastes Good Recipe type: Appetizer Serves: 4-6 Servings INGREDIENTS 1 head cauliflower, riced 1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella Cheese 1/2 cup shaved Parmesan Cheese 1 large egg 1/2 tablespoon freshly minced garlic 1/2 tablespoon freshly chopped basil 1/2 tablespoon freshly chopped Italian flat-leaf parsley 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper 3/4 cup shredded Mozzarella Cheese INSTRUCTIONS Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. To rice the cauliflower I cored it and broke it into florets. Then I placed it in the bowl of my food processor and pulsed until it was the texture of rice. In a large bowl, mix the riced cauliflower, 1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, 1 egg, 1/2 tablespoon fresh garlic, 1/2 tablespoon fresh basil, 1/2 tablespoon fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper until combined and holds together. Place the mixture onto the parchment lined baking sheet and spread out into a rectangle about 9x7" and 1/4" thick. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes (oven temperatures may vary and you may have to adjust the temperature or time). Remove from oven and top with 3/4 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese and return to oven to continue baking until the cheese is melted and starting to brown. Cool about 10 minutes and cut into 'breadsticks'. Garnish with fresh herbs and Parmesan cheese. Serve with your favorite Red Sauce and enjoy! ============== I haven't tried this, but it looks tasty and easy to make. |

I had some last night without any red sauce and I brought some to work with me to have as a snack today. Not sure I'll make this again, but it wasn't a waste of time nor money. |

Recipe is short on some seasonings, two tablespoons of garlic is pathetic, lol. I would use fresh cilantro, greek oregano, add feta, skip the basil, add turmeric, paprika, and other spices. I would put two heads of garlic... I LOVE garlic.... Califlower is pretty bland, you can do ANYTHING to it... Great sub for taters. Thank you so much Orema for taste testing this recipe!!! |

Edit: I should add that it's very tasty. I made a lot and took some to work. Everyone liked it who tried it. And, I'll use cauliflower instead of noodles the next time I have a strong craving for Mac and cheese. Last edited by Orema; 06-06-2016 at 05:47 PM. |

A couple of new Paleo recipes landed in my inbox today that I am going to try(especially those sweet potato pancakes) so I thought I would share some of them here. I am going to try the pancakes as soon as I replenish my egg supply.
Sweet Potato Breakfast Sandwich Grain Free Lemon Poppyseed Muffins

CREAMY CUCUMBER TAHINI SALAD DRESSING
Detoxinista.com A creamy vegan dressing that is addictive over any number of veggies. INGREDIENTS ¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice 5 tablespoons raw tahini (no added oil) ¼ teaspoon salt 1 cup chopped cucumbers (about 4 ounces) 1 clove garlic 1 teaspoon ground cumin 2 tablespoons water INSTRUCTIONS Combine all of the ingredients in a high-speed blender and blend until completely smooth. Adjust any seasoning to taste, and then chill until ready to serve. Like most dressings, the flavor gets even better the longer it sits, and it also thickens a bit. (Feel free to add a splash of water if you need to thin it out later.) Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. No Tahini is not really Paleo,( no seeds really are) however, it is low in carbs for a dressing/dip and has 2.6 grams of Protein per tablespoon...plus it is high in potassium and contains other vitamins and minerals. Not being a Paleo purist personally, I choose to keep a jar of Tahini in house.

This is a 3 part article written by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, PhD (aka The Paleo Mom) that I found to be quite interesting, perhaps you will as well.

Pemmican Review!
I put a meat order in on Sunday and it arrived this afternoon. I included a stick of pemmican with the order to see if I like it or not. I consider myself adventurous when it comes to trying new foods so I was anxious to try it.
I love it! So does Sadie, but it's all mine...well mostly. It looks like a slim jim but a little fatter around. The texture is soft with chewy bits of jerky in it. Think beef paté with tiny bits of beef jerky in it. As for taste, it is very mild tasting like a beef paté minus the seasonings. It also has beef tallow. Although it doesn't taste greasy after you've eaten it you can feel it on your lips, but not in a gross way, at least not to me. In fact, I know people who use beef tallow to make chap stick and balms. The stick I ate today, satisfied my hunger without that overfull filling, and provided me with plenty of energy. I will definitely include a few sticks of this on my meat orders to have for breakfast along with a few nuts and some berries. It is also available with a little honey and cherries in it, which I may try in the near future. Sorry to gross you out if you hate paté. The ingredients are: Beef jerky, beef tallow, water, sea salt

This recipe comes from the recipe section on the web site that I order my grass fed meat from. I believe it is from another customer. This recipe is for 6-8 but could easily be halved for those of us with smaller households, or cook the whole thing and have yummy leftovers!
The Recipe Corner Chipotle Barbacoa Tacos Author: Danielle Walker Prep Time: 15 minutes Cook Time: 480 minutes Serves: 6-8 Ingredients: 3 pound center cut shoulder roast 3 to 5 large dried chipotle peppers, seeds removed ½ yellow onion ¼ cup lime juice ¼ cup tomato paste 4 garlic cloves 1½ tablespoons apple cider vinegar 2 teaspoons cumin 2 teaspoons sea salt 1 teaspoon oregano ¾ cup beef or chicken stock 3 bay leaves 1 teaspoon whole cloves for serving: grain-free tortillas/crepes, avocado, cilantro, sliced radish, red onions Directions: Cut the roast into two pieces and trim any fat. Place in the pot of a slow cooker. Combine the chipotle peppers, onion, lime juice, tomato paste, garlic, vinegar, cumin, salt, and oregano in a food processor. Process until smooth. Pour over the roast and add the stock, bay leaves, and cloves. Cover and cook on low for 7 hours. Remove the beef and shred with two forks. Return the meat to the slow cooker and continue cooking for 1 to 2 hours, until really tender. Serve with your choice of toppings. We like avocado, radish, cilantro, and red onions.

Here is another quick n easy recipe. This would work with a good salsa in place of the avocado sauce for a change of pace. Can you tell that I am craving tacos?
Taco Salad With Creamy Avocado Dressing For The Salad: 2-3 cups shredded romaine lettuce 1/4 cup red onion, diced 3 tbsp sliced black olives 3 green onions, chopped 8 oz. ground beef 1 tsp chili powder 1/2 tsp ground cumin 1/4 tsp garlic powder 1/8 tsp dried oregano 1/8 tsp paprika Salt and pepper, to taste For The Dressing: 1/2 avocado, pit removed 2 tbsp olive oil 1 tbsp lime juice 1 clove garlic, minced 1 tsp fresh cilantro, chopped 1 tbsp water Pinch of salt Directions 1. To make the dressing, blend the ingredients with an immersion blender or in a regular blender and process until smooth. Add more water if necessary to reach desired consistency, and taste for seasoning. Set aside. 2. Cook ground beef with seasonings over medium heat. Assemble salad by combining all of the salad ingredients in a large bowl. Toss well to combine. Top with dressing to serve. Servings: 2 Difficulty: Easy paleo grubs http://paleogrubs.com/

This last one is a favorite go to of mine. I toss some extra veggies in, or have a salad with it. I've altered it only slightly by using nutritional yeast, and correcting a couple of spelling errors. There is a recipe on the same website for the homemade red pesto.
Quick Beef Ragù with "Zoodles" Preparation time Hands on: 15 minutes Overall:20 minutes Nutritional values (per serving): Total Carbs 8.3 grams Fiber 2.6 grams Net Carbs 5.7 grams Protein 37.8 grams Fat 51.1 grams of which Saturated 18.9 grams Energy 645 kcal Magnesium 83 mg (20% RDA) Potassium 1191 mg (60% EMR) Macronutrient ratio: Calories from carbs (3.6%), protein (23.9%), fat (72.5%) // Net carbs without "zoodles": 1.5 g per serving Ingredients (makes 4 servings): Beef ragu: beef, minced, grassfed (800g / 1.8 lb / 28.2 oz) ¼ cup red pesto, Shredded cheese, or nutritional yeast if you prefer 1 tbsp ghee, butter or coconut oil...garlic or herb infused for extra flavour small bunch fresh parsley ½ tsp pink Himalayan salt or to taste Serve with "zoodles": 4 medium zucchini (one per serving), sliced using a julienne peeler or vegetable spiralizer (800g /1.8 lb / 28.2 oz) Instructions: 1. Place the meat in a sauce pan greased with ghee or coconut oil and cook until browned on all sides while stirring frequently. Keep some ghee for later. 2. Add red pesto and freshly chopped parsley and keep on low heat. When done take off the heat and transfer into a bowl. 3. Meanwhile, using a spiralizer, create zucchini "noodles". Chop the soft core of the zucchini and add it to the zoodles. Note: If you don't have a spiralizer, you can use a julienne peeler and peel the zucchini all around until you get to the soft centre. 4. Transfer the zoodles into the sauce pan greased with the remaining ghee. Cook briefly for 2 to 5 minutes. Turn off the heat, add the meat and mix in well. The exact time depends on how tender you prefer the zoodles to be. The less you cook them, the more "al dente" and the less soggy they will be. I prefer mine cooked very briefly for just about 2 minutes. http://ketodietapp.com/Blog/post/201...u-with-Zoodles
