It's ok if your goal is less than 100, not ok if your goal is less than 10. You can cut the carbs by using almond meal, which has fewer carbs, or flax meal which has zero instead of crumbs. Sub a green pepper for the red (use half). Half of the onion. Absolutely no carrots or tomatoes. Then you're looking at 1 or 2 (here I'm guessing, it may be less).

Masharitos, I hear what you're saying ... for me I don't limit them in the same way as some on here so it would work great for me. But yes, if you're really keeping super low carb for health reasons or that type of thing, then yes, I can understand how it wouldn't work for some. |

QUOTE: STUFFED PEPPERS 1 lb ground chicken breast (much better than ground turkey) I agree about the ground chicken, Malalu. The smell of ground turkey cooking almost makes me sick to my stomach. Smells like they scooped what's on the coop floor into the bin with the turkey. (Especially, the frozen turkey patties.)

QUOTE: QUOTE: TURNIP FRIES/CHIPS Preheat oven to 400 degrees Peel the turnip and slice thinly preferably with a mandolin or cut into strips. Lightly toss or spray with olive oil & season with sea salt & your choice of spices. Spray a cookie sheet covered with foil. Lay out in single layer on baking pan lined with foil. Bake for approximately 15 minutes at 400, turn & continue to bake for another 10 or until crisp. Get creative with your spices! Turnips are an IP “select vegetable Well ALL your recipes sound tasty but I happened to get a big bundle of salad Turnips in my CSA (community supported agriculture) box just yesterday. Never tried them but this recipe will definitely help me get acquainted with them. Thanks for all your sharing, looking forward to keeping up on your thread.

Thx, i hope that you enjoy the turnips!

Hi everybody, thanks for all your recipes, here is another recipe, taste great!
Broccoli, cauliflower and chicken patty: 1 chicken breast (boiled with some salt and pepper or your favorite seasoning) 2 cup of steamed broccoli 1 cup of steamed cauliflower 2 eggs You put all the ingredients in a food processor and add some salt and pepper if you want, then you put in the batter in a silicon mold for tartlets to cook in the oven for about 20 minutes, 250 degrees Celsius (480 degrees Fahrenheit). Sorry, i don't know how to paste aphoto here, but i have the photos if somebody help me i send it.

Let me know if you need anymore help finding a photo site or anything.. love photos with recipes, I'm such a visual person!
****OHhhhhhhhhh I so need to purchase a food processor! What type do you use and do you find you like it pretty well and would recommend that brand/model? Anyone else with feedback on this, would love to hear what you use and have found to be the best one for your needs. Sooo many choices I get lost trying to figure out exactly which one would be the one best for me. I don't want too small of one but I sure don't need thing larger than 9 cups or so? I think? 
Thanks!! Hearts

QUOTE: Awesome ideas! ... What does 'bump' mean? (new to all this!!) I had to look it up when i first saw it. It's just something to type in so that 1. the discussion is saved in your recent topics but you have nothing to add. 2. It brings the topic to the top of the list because it just got a response. But I saw someone type in Dump, and I think I prefer that one now.

I started putting my recipes in the blog section. I'm pretty sure it's public. I also added pictures there. Have a look if you'd like. All my recipes will be low/no carb, at least for the next few months.

Yesterday was a very summery Sunday. Without fruits and ice cream, it just isn't the same. My supermarket has Carb Smart and Blue Bunny (supposedly low carb friendly ice creams). I decided to attempt my own. I used an avocado, unsweetened almond milk, unsweetened cocoa powder and Truvia in a blender. It turned out more like an Italian ice because there was no cream. But it sure was satisfying. Plus I couldn't down it as fast as ice cream given all the scraping I had to do. It made for a prolonged, delicious experience. I will try it with Stevia (though I'm still scared of the bitter taste it has by itself), and mayhaps play around with a bit of whipped up heavy cream and maybe agar or xanthan gum. I made 4 cups total, with each cup having about 130 cal, 11F, 3P, 3 net carbs. Which is a fraction of the marcos in those store bought ice creams. Anyone have tips for my venture?

Though I don't' have tips, I find you very creative and inspiring, for whatever reason, I'd love to try and experiment but am a bit afraid, worst thing that can happen though is toss it or change it up and try again. I need to push myself and learn to experiment more. I've heard so much about Avocado smoothies, ice cream etc., bet that is tasty knowing the yumminess of Avocado. I too have done little to experiment with Stevia so for now I'm looking for another healthy alternative to a non artificial dry (powder) sweetener. Have you used Xylitol or is that way to high in carbs? I'm still learning about the non artificial healthier alternative... Thanks for sharing yet another recipe.
