If you’re not feeling well… And you live on my block you might be surprised with a fresh bowl of chicken soup, filipino style. Thank you Roselyn! It was just what I needed for my upset stomach. But you don’t need to be under the weather to appreciate this delicious soup. If you’re into cellophane noodles, chicken and ginger this is the soup for you. And of course a side of white rice is mandatory. 😉 I like it right on top!
Why not try something a little different with those over-ripe bananas. This is such a beautiful (and delicious) quick bread. At first I was just going to add chocolate chips to my banana bread batter but opted for something a little more chocolatey. Breakfast? Why not! No additional sugar added to my banana bread recipe. Just the addition of chocolate. The flavors come through in this very moist quick bread. If you’re into chocolate & bananas you’ll love it.
Whether called a crostata or galette this is in a word scrumptious! In our family nothing’s like an apple dessert. We all seem to agree about apples anyway! This free form makes a star out of the crust for sure … buttery delicious. For an added treat a little caramel sauce drizzle or maybe you’ll want to stick with ice cream or whipping cream. Or no additional topping at all. Enjoy this rustic imperfection which is a perfectly amazing dessert.
Deliciously hearty for the chilly weather ahead, Portuguese Lentil Soup with a bit of cinnamon. The mild flavor of the pork meatballs allow the spices to shine through. The perfect comfort food for cold weather.
Sandies, Russian Tea Cakes and Mexican Wedding Cakes are pretty much the same cookie recipe. I love taking this family favorite cookie and tweaking it a bit to match the mood. Today I’m into pumpkins! It was easy to change this cookie into a Fall Pumpkin Spice Cookie. I switched out the vanilla extract with a bit of dark rum for that extra special Holiday Season treat. I hope you’ll enjoy this change-up!
Deliciously simple scrambled eggs. Quick and easy with minimal ingredients. No meat or cheese but lots of flavor.
Chorizo and Eggs
Migas
Something a bit more? Try these!
In time for Sunday Dinner. Delicious tasting roast with the minimum of prep. Instead of potatoes I’ve added turnips. Because turnips tend to cook up easily in moisture I prefer to roast them separately to get the full caramelized taste. All is then layered into a serving dish and the warm juices are poured over the top.
Only days to Fall 2018 and soups are on our menu … Maybe not the Cold Cucumber! These are Low Carb Soups but you don’t need to be on a Ketogenic Diet to appreciate how delicious they are. Start with this new soup recipe, Cream of Cauliflower, with thanks to Robert Wilson author of Kentogenic Diet who provided the basics for this recipe.
Albondigas Soup
Cold Cucumber Soup
Pizza Soup
Spicy Tomato Soup
Not too sweet, rich and creamy dessert. There’s added sugar … less than 4 tablespoons for the entire 16 bars. Swerve (a sugar substitute) can easily be used in place of the two tablespoons of white sugar. It seems I can taste a sweetener no matter how good. (Yes, even in See’s Candies no sugar chocolates.) So, I opted in for the less than one teaspoon of real sugar per square instead. The recipe still remains an excellent ketogenic diet dessert. The crust is nuts! Walnuts to be exact but pecans work equally well. You have to like nuts to appreciate this recipe. Pistachios are another choice.
Great Grandma Gindes said my New York cheesecake was almost as good as hers! A compliment like that I’ll take any day! If she was here today I believe she’d say these are equally delicious.
Just a terrifically tasty dish! Low carb, gluten free, ketogenic friendly. Nothing more needs to be said!
