Innovative Low Carb, Gluten-Free Recipes
Crispy toasted grilled cheese croutons pair perfectly with a quick tomato soup. Low carb and gluten-free! And Land O’Lakes is donating $1 to Feeding America for every pin! What I am about to discuss with you is a highly contentious subject, so if controversy makes you uncomfortable, I suggest you turn away now. Yes, friends, [...]
Creamy, rich coffee panna cotta made with Greek yogurt and drizzled with raspberry coulis. Low carb and gluten-free. There is no use trying to hide it, I am a dessert fanatic. Strangely, I find this to be more true ever since I discovered I was pre-diabetic and went low carb. Because prior to this time, [...]
Rich dark chocolate frosting sandwiched between two soft, tender peanut butter cookies. Low carb, gluten-free and grain-free. I am something of a chocolate snob and I always have been, especially when it comes to commercial chocolate bars. Having grown up in Canada, I have always viewed Cadbury’s chocolate as far superior to brands found south [...]
A delicious low carb cocktail with sugar-free homemade Kahlua, vanilla vodka and cream. Great as an aperitif but rich enough to be dessert. Confession time. The pictures of this recipe are faked. Totally faked. Yep, I am a faker, and I know it. And now you know it too. The truth is that I almost [...]
A sweet low carb quick bread swirled with orange and chocolate, and with a chocolate drizzle. A perfect breakfast or tea-time treat. Consider the phrase “falling down on the job”. I don’t know about you, but when I hear it, I think of someone intoxicated at their workplace, quite literally falling down (drunk) on the [...]
Chocolate Peanut Butter Eggs, a favourite in every Easter basket, made over to be low carb and gluten-free. I’m sorry, it’s impossible. I simply cannot believe it, I refuse to believe it. They say that it’s almost Easter, but it can’t be. It’s just barely the New Year, isn’t it? I haven’t even gotten used [...]
A healthier, gluten-free version of pigs in the blanket, a family favourite of ours. Kids love them and they make great finger food for game day. March Madness, anyone??? March Madness is something of a foreign concept to me, even after 15 years of living in the US. I believe it was in my [...]
Low carb, sugar-free ice cream made with low carb dulce de leche and studded with salty roasted pecans. I’ve been holding out on you. From the very name of this recipe I am sure you can gather that it was truly delicious and since I made it over a month ago, I really ought to [...]
Crispy baked chicken wings marinated in coconut milk and brushed with spicy hot homemade Thai curry paste. The perfect appetizer or entree. I am of the firm belief that chicken wings should be a food group all on their own. Done well, they are heavenly and can provide all the nutrition you need. Protein, fat, [...]
Creamy peanut butter filling becomes a rich frozen treat in these low carb peanut butter pies. A chocolate crust made with coconut oil holds it all together. Chocolate peanut butter pie. You really can’t go wrong, can you? Apparently I think so anyway, since I’ve made a similar recipe before, my Chocolate Peanut Butter Mousse [...]
