Please feel free to write with questions or asking for clarification re the recipes and links Bonny posts. Low-carb cooking and baking can be a bit confusing, and she has had recipes turn out totally different in the same oven using the exact same ingredients and amounts and procedures, so she tests yum-sounding recipes in small batches first, before proceeding or making huge triple batches, like she used to do.

 

Bonny uses the term 'HG legal' to refer to the liberal low carbohydrate dietary protocol Paul St Amand recommends for his Hypoglycemic patients.  Those who are following a low carb diet for weight loss may find they need to be stricter (i.e., Atkin's, etc).  Click here to find find information regarding Insulin Resistance and the Low-GI diet on this site.

Tips

 

 Xylitol - April 13, 2003: My DH (dear husband) could not tell the difference when I sprinkled xylitol on fresh strawberries for him.  Xylitol has a granular composition that acts and feels just like refined white sugar.  It is used in equal measure as sugar and has all cooking properties.. Just like Splenda.  However, neither Splenda or xylitol can caramelize such as for custard or flan toppings.
 

 

 

Xylitol looks, feels, and tastes exactly like sugar While sugar wreaks havoc on the body, xylitol heals and repairs While sugar is acid-forming, xylitol is alkaline enhancing In its crystalline form, it can replace sugar in cooking and baking Unlike many artif  

 


To me, xylitol is a bit cold to the tongue at first, which is a neat effect and not a bad thing at all... Otherwise, I am hard pressed to tell the difference between Splenda and xylitol.

Fran Gare, N.D., who was at one time the director of the nutrition dept at the atkins center and co-authored *Dr. Atkins new diet cookbook*, is also the author of a slim paperback titled, The Sweet Miracle Of Xylitol, ISBN# 1-59120-038-5.  She explains her belief that xylitol is the most safe artificial sweetener.  Even safer than Splenda, based on far more tests and the fact that xylitol is new to the USA but commonly used in many countries as well as approved by many dental associations abroad.

Who knows? Certainly not me.  I try to use all treats and artificial sweeteners in serious moderation, just in case. I have ruined a few recipes because I cut the sweetener quantity far lower than specified. T hen again, I have found great pleasure in using only 1/4 the amount in 5 or 6 recipes :)

 

Nut Flour Baking & Use Tips
Many SCDers (Specific Carbohydrate Diet) use almond flour; this general info may help.  Just be careful to EXCLUDE any use of honey, their only sweetener, because it is not HG-Legal.

Ground nuts (such as nut flour, etc.) may affect blood sugar more than whole nuts if one is particularly sensitive.

 

Soy (soya flour) can cause weight loss to stall.

 

Thickening Ingredients Tips
You can use Xanthan, Guar gum or Arrowroot as thickeners when following a low -carb diet. Proceed with caution: use VERY small amounts, some of these ingredients can quickly balloon up a liquid . Guar gum is a main ingredient in a very popular fiber-based laxative powder and it is tasteless too, so you can sprinkle a bit on food or in drink to help offset problems from low-carb protein constipation.

I haven't a clue if this guideline applies to gluten flour or any of the above thickeners, but on cooking shows the chefs warn us to mix the thickener in a bit of water (or other similar liquid, such as a broth perhaps), then add to other ingredients. It is not effective to just toss it in as a dry ingredient such as we do with salt. Also, if the ingredients you are adding the thickening mixture to are WARM, make thickening mixture cold. If main food ingredients are cold, make thickening mixture WARM. They claim that you will usually get very poor textures and results if both parts are the same (i.e. COLD/COLD or WARM/WARM).  Bonny.

Bonny's Salads

Single Serving Christmas Tree Gelatin Salads

Feeling crafty but want an easy, fail-proof way to begin your luncheon or formal holiday dinner? 

 

1 small box sugar-free lime flavored gelatin

1 cup boiling water

1 envelope unflavored gelatine

1/2 cup cold water

1 (16 ounce) can fruit cocktail, well drained

Splenda or Xylitol (optional, not required)

9 pointed paper-cone cups (like those used for shaved ice snow-cones)

Cottage cheese or sour cream

 

Pour ingredients of one small packet sugar-free lime gelatin in one cup boiling water.  Dissolve contents of unflavored gelatine packet in 1/2 cup cold water, then add to first mixture and stir thoroughly.  Pay attention, now: this is the low-carb trick!  Drain fruit cocktail JUICE into a measuring cup, remember how much juice was in the cup, then discard it (syrup is loaded with carbs).  Fill measuring cup with equal amount of liquid, and (as an option, tho not required) sweeten by stirring in Splenda or Xylitol "to taste".  Add well-rinsed and drained fruit cocktail and sweetened liquid to gelatin mixture and stir well.  Cool to room temperature.  Rinse paper-cone cups under cold running tap water then stand each cone (tip pointed DOWN) in a glass of suitable dimensions - so that paper-cone cups rest straight and balanced for filling safely as molds.  Carefully pour cooled gelatin mixture into the positioned paper cups.

 

Place glasses in refrigerator and chill until firm.

 

To serve, carefully peel off paper cups and sit molded gelatin trees upright on individual serving salad plates. Easily make a blanket of "snow" with cottage cheese or sour cream, sweetened if desired.  Spoon a small amount of sour or whipped cream into a zip-lock style plastic bag and zip closed securely.  Then, snip a very small opening in one lower corner of bag to make a "decorating tube".  Slowly garnish the salads by circling each one with a thin garland of "snow", and serve quickly before the lovely decorations melt!

 

Yeah, your guests should be impressed.

Main Dishes

 

Michael´s Fall-Off-The-Bone Easy Baked Chicken
Every few weeks, we shop for groceries at Sam´s warehouse. We save a considerable amount of $$ even tho this is just a two people household. We usually buy two bags of skinned chicken breasts, 6 lbs each, because it is almost as simple and quick to prepare twice as much and freeze for lunches. we sit the bags in a pan or bowl in the fridge overnight to catch any drippings, and michael takes an extra 10 minutes to prepare them before rushing to work. my job is to set the timer correctly and later remove them from the oven, eat a few, package and store the rest, and admire michael´s creations when he calls to ask if everything turned out ok! they are the easiest, healthiest and most flexible component of our food plan... and friends whine when they hear he did not bring some to work. the aroma is awesome, and my hunger pangs kick in... but i quickly learned to not eat very much while waiting for these to finish baking. they are so succulent in their warm juice bath, my favorite time to eat them (ok, ONE of my favorite times) is just as soon as they are cool enough.

Michael´s Fall-Off-The-Bone Easy Baked Chicken
We use (for each bag of pieces, which we prepare two at a time):

-6 lbs. Skinned Chicken Breasts or 12 Drumsticks (but you can use what you have)
-1/2 to 3/4 c. White Wine or Sherry (which bakes off, so no HG risk here)
-2 t. Black Pepper, any style
-Seasoning "to taste" (we use 1/4 t. Marjoram, 1/4 t. Thyme, 1 or 2 Bay Leaves)
-9"x13"x1 1/2" Baking Pan
-Large Oven Bag (but not the Turkey size... )

No need to spray or prepare pan, simply place oven bag in it appropriately, and (as Michael phrases this...) "load" the 8 or 9 breasts or 12 drumsticks into the bag. They can be squeezed snug together for room, or even piled to make a second layer. The box says to flour the pieces to prevent the bag from bursting, but no bags have burst for 8 1/2 years, so we like this HG version better. Pour 1/2 or 3/4 cup white wine or sherry on pieces, sprinkle 2 t. black pepper and seasonings equally, blow air into bag to puff it up, and then seal it correctly. Make two small holes in the top of the bag with a fork or knife, one toward each end of the surface area. Place pan on lowest oven rack and bake at 350 degrees for 1 1/2 hrs. The box suggests one hour, but we prefer longer to ensure absolute success and safely cooked poultry. If you have a second layer due to a smaller pan or extra pieces, you must bake for 2 hours instead.

SET THE TIMER. When it rings, remove the pan and rest it on a safe surface to cool. In our home, safe means far from where our cat can climb! When it is cool weather, remember to leave the oven door open a bit to fill the kitchen with free heat and aromas. Carefully pop or tear a big area in the bag, to allow the dangerously hot steam to escape and halt the cooking. When you can safely do so, place a few pieces on your lunch plate and allow the rest to cool longer. By this time I am usually tired or busy, so I place all pieces in a large zip lock bag in the fridge so we can snack on them for a few days. Sometimes I label and date quart sized zip-lock bags and add three drumsticks or one chicken breast to each bag, or cut breasts into chunks appropriate for salads and store one or two servings in each bag. I label a gallon sized zip-lock bag, and store all the smaller bags in an upright formation inside this big bag to save freezer space. This provides quick no-prep protein waiting in the fridge, single servings for sandwiches in Michael´s lunch box, and plenty of salad pieces to thaw the night before or nuke when the urge arises. Which it will.

Low-Carb CROCKPOT Corned Beef & Cabbage for St. Patrick´s Day
4 - 5 lbs corned beef brisket
2 diced onions, medium size (remove skins first & discard)
1/2 teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons vinegar
3 tablespoons Splenda or Xylitol
Sliced Carrots (optional, but cut in roughly equal slices to ensure equal cooking)
1 cabbage head, cut into small wedges
2 cups water

Some versions of this recipe insist you can just put the entire piece of corned beef into the crockpot, but it might be easier to serve and eat as well as ensure an evenly cooked meat if you cut into roughly even sized pieces. We cut ours into 1 inch cubes, and include the fat for more flavor and because we can! (Ah, the joys of low-carbing...) We use CLEAN kitchen shears to do the job, making it far easier on our hand muscles and safer too. So... add all ingredients to the crockpot but make certain all cabbage is added last, so it stays on top of the carrots and meat. Add crockpot lid and cook on LOW for 10-12 hours or on HIGH for 6 to 7 hours. Resist the temptation to peek and lift the lid until it is completely done, because you set the cooking time back at least 15 minutes for each quick look... all that hot moist air escapes, and the crockpot must work longer to replace the effect. Once finished, turn off (and unplug, for safety reasons) the crockpot and stir thoroughly. This is a good dish to freeze in individual serving containers if you actually manage to have leftovers )

Although cabbage is generally difficult for both Michael and I to digest, it is far more acceptable if prepared in a crockpot as above (or boiled) for a very long time.

Vegetables

I am told that in New York City steak houses, "almost everybody" orders creamed spinach as a side dish for steak dinners. I love the stuff, but detest spending the energy required to cook a large amount, wash dishes AND worry while my not-low-carb DH eats large portions of these fatty leftovers. Here is my new ASAP comfort food version. It is VERY comforting on a cold winter night before bed, when we should eat a bit of fat to burn fat while we sleep.

(Prep Note: when preparing low-carb/HG dishes for "only me", I very often use sturdy paper plates and small bowls as well as plastic forks and spoons. No dishes to wash, so less FMS pain following a nice meal or treat! I also keep at least one 8 oz. cream cheese brick sliced into four portions and stored in a quart-size zip lock baggie at all times. When I open a standard size can of vegetables, half goes into my meal and half goes into a zip-lock sandwich baggie for later use. Gosh, the time I save! And, the variety of quickly available snacks just waiting in the fridge enhances my otherwise not-so-interested-in-eating appetite when I feel tired or busy, so my blood sugar is easier to stabilize and manage.)

Creamy Dreamy QUICK Warm Spinach
1 paper bowl
1 plastic spoon or fork
2 oz. cream cheese
1/2 can spinach

Squish the 2 oz. slice of cream cheese into a paper bowl, and microwave for approx 30 seconds. Altho the cheese will retain the same general shape and not look "melted", it is very soft. Open a standard size can of spinach and drain most of the water (I usually just drink it for the nutrients, but be wary of salt if this is a problem for you). A bit of water will remain because you should NOT push all the water out, just drain it. Add 1/2 of the spinach to the bowl of melted cream cheese, and mix with a plastic spoon or fork. Maybe add some pepper or spices, altho I think it is delicious "as is". It should be a moderately thick consistency, and still warm! Quickly put a baggie over the
top of the spinach can, pour the remains into the bag, and store in the fridge for later use. Drink a glass of water to keep your kidneys and medications working well, as you eat this soothing and healthy treat.

Need party dip for those veggies ASAP? Serve the above version, or stir in clams / salad shrimp / etc. This can be prepared for "fancy" dinners too: four servings would require 2 cans of spinach and 1 brick of 8 oz. cream cheese.  Mix in a handful of toasted pecan or other nut pieces for an impressive side dish.

Dessert" Green Beans
When I have eaten "just protein" all day and start craving sweets...
this is a favorite late-night snack designed to ensure I "eat my veggies", too.  Green beans
help balance blood sugar, and I eat them frequently.

1 or 2 handfuls of French sliced, FROZEN green beans (you just can´t get that crisp crunchy
texture from canned versions)
Sprinkling of Splenda or Xylitol
Cinnamon, and maybe Ginger / seeds / nuts / shredded coconut (and yes, a paper bowl or
plate and a plastic fork!)
(I usually buy the "Garden Blend" Kroger´s brand of frozen French sliced green beans, which
are mixed with bits of broccoli / mushrooms / onions... and remove the onions because I hate them...)

Put a serving of vegetables on a paper bowl or plate, zip the bag closed and put it back in the
freezer for next time.  Microwave just long enough to thaw them (or longer if you prefer warm veggies), and drain any melted ice water.  

Sprinkle VERY lightly with Splenda or Xylitol, and maybe get adventurous by adding any combination of cinnamon (great "comfort food" taste, stabilizes blood sugar and assists digestion), ginger powder (hint of the orient, which REALLY soothes nausea and digestive ailments), seeds or toasted nuts, shredded sugar-free coconut (also good for digestion), etc.

Michael´s Sweet Squash Casserole Treat
Even baked yummy with butter, sliced yellow squash can get a bit... boring.  Requiring VERY little
Splenda or xylitol for a big sweet treat, this quick dish is a fab way to use all those squash your
neighbor continues passing to you from the garden. Is it a healthy dessert, side dish for impressive
entertaining, or (if you prepare a huge amount and somehow have leftovers) the breakfast you will
crave enough to eat cold from the dish in the fridge?

4 - 7 small yellow squash, or equivalent amount of large squash

2 egg whites, lightly beaten

5 teaspoons Splenda or Xylitol

1 heaping tablespoon ground cinnamon

3 tablespoons butter or margarine

9" x 13" pan or baking dish, sprayed lightly

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Rinse surfaces of all squash. Cut them into thin slices, and arrange in three long rows in the lightly sprayed pan. Lay the first slice flat, then tilt all the following slices in a cascading, attractive column by laying each one 2/3 or 3/4 atop the slice below. You w ill have quite a few small slices resulting from the crooked squash necks, so fill in the two thin lines of space between the three larger slice columns with the small pieces. You do not have to arrange your ingredients this way, but it looks very chic as a presentation! Also, the slices will never lay flat so they have very little chance of burning or sticking. If you use more squash or a smaller pan, you can safely prepare two layers but do not risk more. Melt t he butter or margarine in a sauce pan, then add the two egg whites you have stirred gently (OK, beaten is the proper term) with a fork. Also add the cinnamon and Splenda or Xylitol, and mix well over a low flame or heat. Spoon this mixture over all squash, and bake for 20 - 25 minutes with no lid or cover. The egg whites will turn a bit brown and slightly chewy, and the now tender squash will practically fall apart. (This buttery sauce is also excellent on many other vegetable, fruit and meat / poultry dishes and even makes a unique ice cream or flan topping.) When you serve this treat warm, drizzle a generous share of the butter sauce over the squash slices. When you tend to snitch bites from the fridge all through the night, try to remember that butter really is OK for us lucky low-carbers!

I usually eat a mega serving while sitting cross-legged in the dark on my en d of the couch, beaming in adoration at Michael while he pretends to not notice his obvious success and stares instead at the sci-fi channel. Probably the slurping of butter and purrs of appreciation are his first clues!

Hanukkah Chicken with Apricot Preserves
HGers are advised to eat only fresh fruit in the unchanged original form it grew in, not even smashed or cooked down (ex: apples vs. applesauce).  Why?  The more a fruit is cooked, the quicker it will be digested... which greatly increases blood sugar levels, etc.  I suspect this entree´ could be eaten mindfully on occasion, tho, because the preserves are used as a glaze and do not get into the poultry very much at all.  Just drizzle a bit of the unused juice over each serving when plating, and discard the rest to keep the carb and blood sugar counts low.

 

6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts

1 cup sugar-free apricot preserves (Smuckers makes No-Sugar-Added style)

1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar

1 tablespoon Splenda or Xylitol (optional, for a sweeter holiday taste)

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).  Lay chicken breasts in a 9 x 13-inch pan, casserole or baking dish. In a cup or small bowl, mix sugar-free apricot preserves, vinegar and Splenda or Xylitol. Pour sauce equally over chicken breasts, then cover with lid or tin foil.  Bake for 50 minutes, then remove cover and bake for 10 more minutes.

Sauces, Spreads & Dressings

 

Quick-n-Spirited Holiday Sauce for Poultry, Meat, Vegetables
For EACH serving, use:

2 ounces Cream Cheese
2 teaspoons Vodka
1/2 teaspoon decaf Coffee crystals
Splenda or Xylitol ("to taste")
Sprinkle of small Pecan or other Nut pieces (optional)

Melt 2 ounces cream cheese (which is 1/4 standard brick) for approx 30 seconds in microwave. Be aware that cream cheese retains general shape even when very hot and soft, so do not expect it to "melt". Remove from microwave and stir in 2 teaspoons vodka and 1/2 teaspoon decaf coffee crystals. The sauce will appear lumpy at first, but it will quickly have the creamy brown "gravy" consistency so many of us enjoy. Sweeten "to taste" but go slow, because you may find that no sweetener is needed at all. Sprinkle with toasted or plain small pecan, walnut or other nut pieces if you wish, and stir again. Serve warm, either in a gravy bowl for company or drizzled over entrees. (This is also a fine dipping sauce!)

The coffee crystals will add a musky strong taste but the effect will dilute substantially when served with food. You may or may not prefer any sweet taste; I love the slightly sweet flavor that mixes with spirits and adds a festive appeal. I drizzled this sauce over shredded chicken leg meat and green beans today, and the results were enjoyable.

Two Whiskey Dipping Sauces

Ok, ok... Plain chicken and raw vegetables are good for us but gosh they can taste boring after the first few meals.  This is how I survive when my tongue demands dessert but my logic says lunch:

Blackberry cream sauce with whiskey-n-walnuts
-6 t. Blackberry jam or jelly (or any other sugar free fruit style, probably)
-4 t. Heavy whipping cream (optional, and luxurious)
-3 t. Walnuts, broken or chopped into small pieces (or any other type of nut)
-2 t. Whiskey or bourbon (optional)

If you plan to store some to nibble with, mix all ingredients in a small container with air tight lid. Walnuts (or other nuts) taste better and a bit stronger when toasted, which is so quick that the effort is usually worth it. All ingredient quantities are "to taste", so you might want to add slowly and sample along the way! I limit myself to one or possibly two tablespoons of jam
or jelly every few days, always eaten with substantial amounts of protein to offset any possible hg problems, and cut back or do not eat any other fruit or sweet treats on the same days. Why? Jams and jellies digest far quicker than solid fruit because they are already "broken down", so hg conflicts are more likely if you are sensitive. Wee portioned treats are often safe and make a big difference on a dull day.

Quickie option: shred one chicken breast and mix with a small amount of this sauce, then eat alone or atop a small bed of small sized lettuce shreds. Or, drizzle over a meat or poultry serving to make a kicky and pretty-as-purple presentation for your guests.
Bonny Carlin copyright © 2003

Whiskey mustard sauce
-sugar free mustard
-whiskey or bourbon (optional)
-xylitol or splenda (optional)

Decide on the quantity of sauce you will use, and put almost but not quite that amount in a container. Slowly add small amounts of whiskey or bourbon and stir, then taste to make certain you have not created a mix that is too strong. The best amount of this liquid is that which is tasty and also makes mustard less thick and more pourable, like a salad dressing. If you prefer a sweet version, stir in a small amount of xylitol or splenda.

Quickie option: mustard is a fantastic folk remedy for indigestion. Use in small amounts for a snazzy salad dressing. A little of this sauce goes a long way with the taste buds. Or, shred one chicken breast and mix with a small amount of this sauce, then eat alone or atop a small bed of small sized lettuce shreds. When my stomach feels queasy from guai cycling but I must eat, this protein-packed snack is a good option. Or, drizzle over a meat or poultry serving to make an aromatic presentation for your guest that is also helpful for digestion.

Super-Quick Horsey Whip
YES, the title of this recipe is a bit playful but it really does describe this sauce / dip.   I never liked horseradish or most very "hot" sauces... but when reading an Atkins holiday recipe I was inspired by their version of mayo and horseradish used on roast beef sandwiches, etc.  My VERY MILD version is quick to prepare (of course...) and lower in fat and calories, too. 

 1 paper bowl or cup
1 plastic fork or spoon or knife or...

1 packet Arby´s Horseradish Sauce

2 or 3 globs of Miracle Whip

(Arby´s Horseradish Sauce DOES contain very small amounts of high fructose corn syrup, so it is technically not OK for HG dieters even tho low-carbers can use it.  Unfortunately the carbs are not listed, but the amount of syrup is necessarily minimal.) 

You can probably figure out the rest, but if not:  Open the Arby´s packet that someone in your family almost threw out with their fast-food wrappers, and pour it into a small container.  Add approx the amount of Miracle Whip that you would mix with one 6-ounce can of tuna fish.  Stir both ingredients, then taste.  If it is a bit strong, add Miracle Whip gradually until the taste is enjoyable.  I like my version mild, so I barely recognize the horseradish until I have started eating the sauce.  This subtle zip perks up my favorite condiment

for cold or warm turkey... ´tis the season :)

Tuna and Ham Spread
Unlike boring dry fishy-tasting tuna or way-too-salty ham, this spread tastes luxurious and creamy. Not the same-old-stuff, try it and be surprised. I eat it straight or with Wasa crackers (6 or 7g carb versions), and DH packs it for lunch in a zip baggie next to ice.

8 oz. Cream Cheese (one brick)
24 oz. of canned tuna (4 cans of 6 oz. each)
1 pkg. 8 oz. diced ham (Cumberland Gap Diced Ham is great for this, but use small cubes only because larger cubes and undiced ham from same company have higher sugar content)

Put brick of cream cheese in bowl and microwave 1 minute. Drain liquid from tuna. Add all tuna and diced ham to cream cheese and mix well.

Simple, eh? You CAN add spices "to taste", but even my spice-aholic DH does not bother. The salt from the tuna and ham is sufficient. Toss some sliced almonds or other nuts, ground flaxseed, coconut or diced veggies if you must... Freezes well, too.

Sprinkled Splenda Salad Dressing 

When you rinse salad greens, don´t worry about spin-drying them.  Plan to prepare the greens right before they will be eaten, and use the wee bits of moisture to your advantage.  The water replaces salad oils, creams, vinegar, etc., in this recipe.  Prepare the salad as usual, then sprinkle several big pinches of Splenda Granular (the loose packed variety, not the packets) on the surface.  Mix slightly but not too much, so you will be certain to get the most flavor-impact of the sweetener with each top bite.  Your tongue will become used to the sweet and after a little while, the salad bites with no or very little sweetener will not be unpleasant... your tongue will seek out and anticipate the sweet bites.  This sounds weird and your friends may laugh, but go ahead and try it a few times.  This is a favorite way for me to eat many more veggies, which of course improves nutrition and bowel functioning.  I suspect Splenda is not particularly smart for us to use in chronically large amounts, but it is far better for those of us with HG concerns than sugar will ever be.  You will find the quantity of Splenda used for salad dressing is minimal, yet it delivers a very satisfying treat.  You will save the cost of bottled low-carb dressings and can buy the GOOD STUFF with it... low-carb ice cream and chocolate, and... and... and...

Hanukkah Goat/Cream Cheese with Herbs
This easy party dip can certainly be enjoyed throughout the year by HGers as well.  Just store in an airtight container in the fridge, and remember to use only low-carb crackers or fresh rinsed vegetables to do the dippin´ with. 

 

8 oz. "Full-Fat" cream cheese (Philadelphia brand has lowest carb count)

4 oz. crumbled feta cheese, at room temperature

1 teaspoon olive oil

Sweets

 

Peppermint Cream Cheese Berry Drops
These treats are addictive!! Even tho i do not add ANY sweetener, the blueberries add a distinctive mild sweetness. Easy to grab when you need "something on your stomach" but are hurried or do not feel well enough to prepare a snack, they contain the fat low-carb'ers require to reduce weight. Just grab several from the freezer and enjoy the "ice-cream" texture as they melt in your mouth and you enjoy the cold berries!

Unwrap an 8-oz brick of cream cheese and put it in a microwave-safe container (I just use a paper bowl or plate). Place container and ingredients in microwave at normal heat for 30 - 60 seconds, enough to make cheese soft and easy to stir. (It will probably not change form when it softens, or puddle - but it will be very soft to the touch of a spoon.) Stir in drops of peppermint cooking extract (NOT the essential oil type used for aromas and candles) "to taste". GUAIERS be mindful that a light suggestion of the flavor is probably safer for guaiers, and will still leave a refreshing aftertaste to the treat. Use the spoon to put mixture into a zip-loc freezer style quart bag, then push all into a bottom corner and push all air out. Zip the bag closed, and twist several times until you have a "cone" of mix. Snip a small piece of plastic off the bottom corner, and slowly squeeze quarter-size dollops of mix onto a sturdy plate (I use paper plates). The dollops can be spaced close together because they will not spread. Place one frozen blueberry or raspberry in center of each dollop, and push down to the bottom of plate to flatten treat and make storing easier. Place uncovered plate into freezer until completely hard, approx 20 - 30 minutes. You can easily pop the drops off the plate altho no oil or spray was used. Store all drops in an airtight container or another zip-lock freezer bag.

I make several batches at a time, and stack the plates. I store the drops in an airtight baggie soon after freezing to prevent the "freezer taste".

Easy Apricot & Chocolate Hanukkah "Gelt"

"Gelt" means gold or money in Yiddish... this version is not spendable in most stores, but it sure is worthy!  I found several versions of this holiday treat, so I de-carbed the most delicious one then lowered the proportions so just about any single or small family HG guaier can enjoy without eating TOO many carbs.

 

(This recipe can easily be doubled, or quadrupled, or...)

 

9 large apricot halves

1/4 cup bittersweet chocolate or milk chocolate-style pieces or chips

     

If you cannot locate sugar-free chocolate chips, just chop some Atkins Endulge chocolate bars or Hershey´s SUGAR-FREE Dark or Milk Chocolate bite-sized bars with a sharp knife.

 

Melt the sugar-free chocolate pieces in a small crockpot for dipping with friends, or in a microwave-safe small bowl. This should only take a minute or two, but be mindful of this secret: avoid burning chocolate in the microwave by melting in 30-second increments, then stir and melt for 30 seconds again - stir - and then repeat process if needed.  (There are a few guaiers who probably still melt chocolate with a double-boiler or over hot water, but I think the risk of water burns and cleanup is too much hassle!)  Pat apricot halves dry, then dip each fruit halfway into melted chocolate. 

 

Provide napkins if you serve these at a buffet where guests dip their own.  Otherwise, place dipped fruits on a cooking pan or sheet covered with parchment or waxed paper and refrigerate until candy hardens, approx 20 minutes.

Bonny´s Low-Carb Chocolate Walnut Race-Day PIE

Served by the small slice, typically warmed and often with a large dollop of whipped cream and a sprig of mint and perhaps a bit of bourbon over that, this much-requested traditional Kentucky dessert should at least temporarily resolve any lingering need you may harbor for sweets.


Ingredients:

1 unbaked 9" low-carb pie crust, the flakier and more delicate the better

3 eggs

(or equivalent amount in Egg Beaters if watching cholesterol)

1/2 cup Atkins Sugar-Free Syrup

(or similar sugar-free maple-flavored syrup)

1 or 2 teaspoons black-strap molasses (yes, yes - the real stuff this time - but optional)

1 cup granulated Splenda

(or 1/2 cup granulated Splenda + 1/2 cup Xylitol)

3 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted

5 ounces sugar-free semisweet chocolate chips or similarly sized pieces (or sugar-free milk chocolate if you simply insist)

1 cup walnut halves or large pieces, preferably toasted and cooled

 

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Mix eggs, syrup, black-strap molasses, Splenda / Xylitol and melted butter / margarine together thoroughly with a fork or whisk. Place unbaked crust in a similarly shaped pan, then distribute chocolate chips and walnut pieces evenly inside. Slowly pour in the filling, going clockwise along the outer rims so the chocolate and walnuts are not displaced. Bake approx 40 minutes, and chill before cutting slices.

 

This pie is very different in texture as well as taste if served chilled, warmed, or frozen. If freezing, cool newly baked pie and then cut into servings before freezing in same pan or other container / baggie(s). It can be eaten and enjoyed only one minute after removing from the freezer, and in that form has a very chewy candy-bar consistency. Consider cutting into very small one-bite pieces and storing in the freezer for portioned warm weather thrills!

Bonny´s Low-Carb Chocolate Walnut Race-Day FLAN

Like the previous recipe, this very sweet treat will stir the souls and tummies of most Kentuckians as we recall memories of the various Run for the Roses events we have grown up with. It includes recognizable main ingredients of the trademarked Derby-Pie, but it may be preferred by those who desire a lighter yet satisfying reminder of the famous delicacy. Serve by the small slice, straight from the refrigerator or warmed slightly. Like the pie recipe, it can even sport a large dollop of whipped cream with a sprig of mint and perhaps a bit of bourbon dabbled atop everything.

 

Ingredients:

5 eggs (or equivalent amount in Egg Beaters if watching cholesterol)

1/2 cup Atkins Sugar-Free Syrup (or similar sugar-free maple-flavored syrup)

1 tablespoon black-strap molasses (yes, yes - the real stuff this time - but optional)

1/2 cup granulated Splenda (or 1/2 cup Xylitol)

4 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted

4 ounces sugar-free semisweet chocolate chips or similarly sized pieces (or sugar-free milk chocolate if you simply insist)

1 cup walnut halves or large pieces, preferably toasted and cooled

 

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Mix eggs, syrup, black-strap molasses, Splenda / Xylitol and melted butter / margarine together thoroughly with a fork or whisk. Butter a 9" pie tin, then distribute chocolate chips and walnut pieces evenly inside. Slowly pour in the filling, going clockwise along the outer rims so the chocolate and walnuts are not displaced. Bake approx 35 - 40 minutes.

 

Do not be concerned if the surface of this flan cracks or splits a bit, due to the nature of the ingredients. 'Tis all good.

This flan is very different in texture as well as taste if served chilled, warmed, or frozen. If freezing, cool newly baked flan and then cut into servings before freezing in same pan or other container(s). It can be eaten and enjoyed only one minute or less after removing from the freezer, and in that form has a very chewy candy-bar consistency. Consider cutting into very small one-bite pieces and storing in the freezer for portioned warm weather thrills!

Delicious, Illicit Recipes #1 - Tooth Lovin' Mint Freezer Candy
If you can NOT comfortably digest small amounts of xylitol or if you refuse to eat mint on the theory that it "may" block guai for FMS... just delete this recipe from your collection and walk the other way while you still can. Otherwise, you may taste it and love it and be sorry - very sorry - that you must break the habit.

Everyone else, please continue reading.

When I gave up sugar for the HG / lowcarb diets years ago, I also gave up beloved York Mint Patties for the same reason. Too bad, because this quickly consigned me to occasional digestive annoyances I could not efficiently quell by eating a small patty or two. I also adore the way they melt in my mouth, and Michael eats them so I get to watch him adoring them all the time :(

I longed for and searched for a way to make something similar from xylitol (since I try my best to ignore that nastiness named Splenda) but nah...

until a recent fortuitous sloppy mess in the kitchen made the recipe for me.

I was grinding various odd ingredients with my Magic Bullet, passing time while trying to design mint chocolate candy that would cover up the taste of added seaweed. Never got there, tho close, but I did tumble onto this much happier result:

1 Pak (3/4 ounce) of fresh and hopefully organic Mint Leaves
1 Cup Xylitol (granular)
1 or 2 Quart-Size Freezer Zip Lock-style Bags
1 Magic Bullet and Cup/Blade, or Blender, or Food Processor

Rinse all mint leaves well under clean water, several times, then pull leaves off stems and blend the leaves to a liquid pulp. Do this step BEFORE you continue, or your efforts will be quite possibly tedious. Freeze the stems in an airtight container, for other medicinals and fancy candy fantasies. Add one cup xylitol and continue mixing, whirling or stirring by hand. Use a big spoon to plop the oozy mix into an open and waiting freezer bag... carefully, so the seal is not affected. Lay the bag on a flat surface, push all the air out and close all but one corner inch of the seal. Roll a smooth sided drinking glass along the bag surface to make the inside thickness consistent and to remove any leftover air. Snap the seal closed, and lay the pak flat in the freezer for several hours. Come back, drop it several times on the counter and enjoy the fragmented frozen granular mint candy that will melt in your mouth.

No, they aren't covered in chocolate like those from York - but it is a refreshing after meal treat that is also great for tummy upsets and very, very lowcarb. Eat small pieces or the synergy of xylitol and mint may surprise and disturb you, ironically. The dental associations of many countries endorse xylitol as a cavity preventative (really... and that is nice in itself!) and I wish I could say that you do not need to brush your teeth after snacking on this treat - but I cannot find supporting studies to indicate small amounts of mint, antiseptic tho it is, will be overpowered by the xylitol to sufficiently pause that task. So, brush after every meal, every snack, and every treat - even those containing organic, dental preventatives and fresheners.

( Not a paid endorsement for Dental / Xylitol Associations, alas... )

Although I have not personally tried many of them yet, many low carb dieters do and seem to be happy with the results.

If weight reduction is a goal of your HG diet plan, please be mindful that carbohydrate counts in vegetables do add up. My body stops reducing ASAP when I eat too many carbs from vegetables, even if they ARE on the "HG Strict" vegetable list. Results will vary from guaier to guaier, of course... just be aware of this concern.

Soup, Stew, Chili & Goulash
The following links connect to recipes for SOUP STEW CHILI & GOULASH that I
located on the internet and are
HG-Legal.  You may prefer one over another
for health reasons or ease of preparation or cost of ingredients.  Although I
have not personally tried many of them yet, many low carb dieters do and seem to
be happy with the results. 


***   Many soups are very quick and simple to prepare, and can be stored in
the refrigerator for several days or frozen in portion-sized containers.  Soup
recipes are usually difficult to prepare incorrectly, even for the beginning
cook, and ingredients you do have can be substituted “to taste” for recipe
listings that are not easily available.  I enjoy most soups both hot and cold,
and make a challenge of concocting an appetizing healthy soup while cleaning
remnant foods from my refrigerator before shopping day. 

***   If weight reduction is a goal of your HG diet plan, please be mindful
that carbohydrate counts in CHEESE, CREAM, PUMPKIN & SOME VEGETABLES do add up.
 My body stops reducing ASAP when I eat too many carbs from ANYTHING, even if
they ARE on the "HG Strict" list.  Results will vary from guaier to guaier,
of course... just be aware of this concern.

Almond and Nut Flour Recipes
The following links connect to muffin recipes I have found on the internet, that use almond flour. You may prefer one over another for health reasons or ease of preparation or cost of ingredients, so check them out before deciding which ones to try. Although I have not personally tried them, many low carb dieters do and seem to be happy with the results.

*** Always store NUT flours, GLUTEN and SOY flours (or combinations) in airtight containers or zip-lock freezer bags in the fridge or freezer to guard against turning rancid.

 

Almond Flour Breads

A low-carb FMS internet friend, anxious for cheese sandwiches designed her own bread.   Jennifer says that although it is fragile and thin, it is very good and great for cheese sandwiches! (Necessity is the mother of all inventions, huh ;-)  I have not tried it yet, but i think the combination of cinnamon-spiced almond bread and cheese sounds too yummy to overlook!

Anyway, i assured her that a gazilliion H'Gers I knew would want to consider her recipe, and she said "SURE!" so here's: ta-da-da-da - - -

Jennifer's Almond Bread
3 eggs
2 Tbsp heavy whipping cream, NOT whipped
2 Tbsp butter, melted (or olive oil)
1-1/2 c. ground almonds or other nuts
1 teasp baking powder
1 teasp Sugar Twin (or other sweetener if you wish)
small pinch cinnamon
scant ¼ teasp Lawry's seasoned salt
Preheat oven to 350. Combine eggs, cream, and melted butter. Mix well.
Combine dry ingredients in a separate bowl and mix well.
Fold dry ingredients into egg mixture.
Pour into buttered or oiled bread pan -- one of those mini-sized loaf pans, not a regular-size one.
Put this pan into a large cake pan and pour water into the larger pan to the depth of one
and a half inches (i.e., the way you would set up a custard).
Bake for 40 minutes.
Tip out of the pan and cool on a plate.
Store in the refrigerator.

Notes: This bread is rather fragile. It won't hold up very well, but it works for nice mini-sandwiches if you're careful. It toasts up wonderfully in a pan on the stove with some butter, and this is the way I make my toasted cheese sandwiches. It can be doubled and made in a large loaf pan and it will bake fine, but it won't puff up much so it's hardly worth it. This recipe can also make six ordinary-sized muffins, but put in 2 teaspoons SugarTwin and bake
for 30 minutes instead of 40. Flavorings work extremely well with this recipe -- cinnamon, lemon, pumpkin, cocoa, herb or onion, cranberry, orange, vanilla, etc., but beware of putting in too much -- a little goes a LONG way. The more liquid you add the more ground nuts you should add to keep the consistency of the batter.

Thanksgiving Carving, Gravy, Roasting & Traditions Tips

Some people may not know how to carve a turkey (yes, that includes me...) yet be able to roast a delicious one for guests. Others may need a "quickie" gravy recipe, some food safety reminders or low-carb holiday insights. If "breaking the ice" with strangers at holiday festivities is not your skill area, perhaps the many links re Thanksgiving History, Culture and Customs will provide you with pleasant converstaion starters or at least stories that children may discuss or read to dinner guests.  Although people often insert stuffing into a turkey before roasting it, many chefs repeatedly advise against this yummy practice... the risk of food poisoning is much higher than preparing the stuffing in a separate dish and serving it alongside the platter of turkey.

Candies
Please do be mindful of recipes requiring large amounts of artificial sweeteners, such as Splenda and Xylitol. both have carbohydrates PER TEASPOON and the carbs can easily add up.  Some guai'ers are reactive to concentrated amounts of AS, so also consider practicing "portion control" because eating these treats will probably be very enjoyable).  Some recipes can be made with 1/2 or even 1/3 requested amount of AS and still be very tasty.

Impressive listing of low-carb CANDY recipes

Chocolate made with Splenda and NO SUGAR ALCOHOLS.  I have not tasted them, but heck - even semi-good chocolate is better than no-chocolate-at-all and who knows?  these candies might be great!
http://store.yahoo.com/low-carb/micanosualch.html
http://store.yahoo.com/low-carb/micanosualch1.html

Even candy mold manufacturers are adding to the low-carb marketing frenzy.  Sure, any ole mold should and probably would work just as well and exactly the same but low-carb molds are special.   Why?  They hold less melted candy and are therefore more to the proportions of sweet treats low-carbers are accustomed to finding in sugar-free and low-carb stores.  You decide...
 
Anyway, I now own several styles - one makes four thin candy bars similar to the Atkins Chocolate Endulge bar proportions, and each bar breaks into 10 small pieces.  Packaging on this mold suggests we use one 12 ounce bag of sugar-free milk chocolate flavored candy wafers, sold by the same company. (Really just wider flattened chips, that use vegetable oil instead of cocoa butter to keep the price much lower and to remove the need to temper which is a tough trick true chocolate requires.)  The other style makes eight thin smaller peanut butter cup candies, but I do not know how many the 12 ounce bag of wafers will make because the recipes for 36 cups assumes you also fill the chocolate linings with assorted 'yummies' such as peanut-line at the site. 
 
Each mold costs approx $2 locally, and each bag of wafers costs approx $5.50 locally but only $4 online (the shipping will even the game though, at $7 to start.  You can order up to 6 bags before shipping increases, so budget accordingly.) 
 
You will probably not save much of the cost of locally available low-carb candy bars by making your own, but if you prefer flavoring your own with spearmint or peppermint or cherry or other extracts - or want to fill the molds with fancy fillings for gifts - this is a good place to start.  Although this company sells a plethora of normal molds and sugar-based candy wafers and foil wrappers, the low-carb findings are marked 2004 so I suspect this is a new branch in the biz. 
 
If any of you actually do use these lusciously addictive chips to make pork-rind crumb filled chocolate bars, please do post to the Guai-Support list under this thread (HG: Low-Carb Chocolate Wafers (Chips!) & Candy Molds) and share the exciting story with us!  For once, I found a recipe that may well be tasty but definitely sounds wackier than mine.  When I read that recipe on the package, I laughed out loud in the tiny low-carb specialty shop I visited recently and the shop clerks wrinkled their noses too. 
 
The candy wafers are great eaten as snacks but melt asap in the microwave for molding and dipping, too.  Caution though, "only" 1 net carb per 1 1/2 ounce serving (8 servings per bag) translates to 26 g total carbs which breaks down into 1 g dietary fiber + 0g sugars + 24g maltitol, the stuff that easily causes flatulence in many dieters.
 
Still interested?  Go to www.makenmold.com and enter product # mv-6900-mm in the search box to locate the wafers.  Enter # 8031 for the candy bar mold and # 8032 for the cup mold.  Altho these are not must-have items for most hg Guaiers, it sure is nice to know that specialty products are becoming more available.

ZERO CARB COOKIES
*** HG: NO NO NO These are not really "zero-carb" but they ARE very very
low-carb!
http://www.titanic.kn-bremen.de/cake29.html
 


Bake & Batter Mixes

Atkins Bake Mix is OK for HG diet, but it certainly is pricey and often difficult to locate. The following links connect to recipes I have found on the internet, that use assorted flours and combinations. You may prefer one over another, so check them out before deciding which ones to try. Although I have not personally used them, many low carb dieters do and seem to be happy with the results.

Storing
: Always store NUT flours, GLUTEN and SOY flours (or combinations) in air tight containers or zip-lock freezer bags in the fridge or freezer to guard against turning rancid.

Soft Rolls
Author Unknown

These look like the top of a hamburger bun and can be used for sandwiches or
served warm in a bread basket.

4 eggs, separated
1/2 t. salt
2 T. cottage cheese
Spray "Pam"

Preheat the oven to 300?. Separate the eggs . Whip the whites with the salt
until peaks form. In a separate bowl, mix together the egg yolks and cottage
cheese. Fold the yolk/cheese mixture into the whites, being careful not to over
mix or break down the froth of the whites. A few streaks can remain. Spray a
cookie sheet with the Pam, in 6 large circles about the size of a saucer. Mound
the batter into 6 sweetener portions, slightly flattening the top of each
mound. Bake  30-40 minutes until browned. They will spread and probably touch.
Remove from cookie sheet immediately and cool on wire racks. Can be stored in a
zip-lock bag and reheated, but they really are best served right out of the
oven.

 

Classic Atkins Revolution Rolls
http://mysite.verizon.net/vze4n46b/lc/recipesother.htm
No Almond Flour

Scroll down to the "bread" recipe section and you will find a recipe for the classic Atkin's revolution rolls which are HG-Strict :)

If you are keeping your carb intake low on a low-carb diet or do not want to use almond flour, the bread and pancake recipes in this section may look rather attractive to you as well!

150 Vegetarian Recipes, 90% are Gluten-Free

Obviously the dessert recipes and a few others will not be HG-Legal, but many of these recipes are ok for HG / low-carb diets or can easily be modified.  Vegetarian Guai'ers, as well as those who must avoid gluten, might find these recipes very helpful.  Bonny


Halloween Recipes

The following links connect to HALLOWEEN recipes I located on the internet
that are HG-Legal
.  You may prefer one over another for health reasons or ease
of preparation or cost of ingredients.  Although I have not personally tried
many of them yet, many low carb dieters do and seem to be happy with the
results. 
 
Very few sources publish or list low carb or HG diet recipes for special
occasions, but many acceptable and easy to acquire ingredients are easily
substituted so we may have a ghastly ghoulish time.  PLEASE NOTE  SUBSTITUTION
SUGGESTIONS, they were created by me personally to ensure all recipes are safe for
our protocol.  
 
CAUTION: Pumpkin and apples are favorites during this season, but they are
not for HG Strict or weight loss due to higher carb counts.  Sugar free caramels
are delicious, but the ingredients do cause flatulence in many individuals if
more than a few are eaten… particularly on an empty stomach.  If you suspect
that food dyes used to produce guaifenesin are harmful to you, consider NOT
using dyes in these specialty party recipes.

"Fat Tuesday" Low-Carb Mardi Gras Recipes

"Fat Tuesday" is celebrated in 2005 on February 8th, but the gaiety and ribald festivities will stop promptly at midnight when Ash Wednesday - the first day of Lent - begins.  Only occasional ingredients in many otherwise delicious and hearty Mardi Gras recipes prevent the low-carber from feasting with the crowds, so consider substituting  easily available low-carb versions as you prepare traditional "Fat Tuesday" delicacies: -  

BREAD CRUMBS:  An obviously easy sub.  Just dry sugar-free or low-carb off-the-shelf sliced bread and prepare as usual.

CRAWFISH:  Can't find them, or don't want to try?  Lobster, crab or shrimp (in that order) are the preferred subs of many Southerners-n-others.  Just don't use the economical fake crab, which is loaded with sugar.

CORN STARCH OR FLOUR:  Try powdered xanthan or guar gum, or ThickenThin not/Starch by ExpertFoods.com

FETTUCINNE:  Dreamfield's Pasta is low-carb, wonderful, affordable and widely available.

MILK:  Use Hood' Low-Carb Dairy Beverages or part cream / part water.

RICE:  Well, not quite so easy to sub, but many low-carbers are content with riced cauliflower and claim it is similar in texture and taste when covered with the many gumbos and fish dishes known in Louisiana.  Or, just skip the rice as usual!

SUGAR or SIMPLE SYRUP: Use Splenda, Xylitol, Stevia Plus, etc. Because many classic Mardi Gras recipes are copywrited, I cannot list them here… but I CAN share the links with a simple reminder:: when you see an ingredient not allowed on your HG / low-carb diet, just use one of those listed above.

Most recipes require no subs or just one or two, so "Fat Tuesday" party fare is easily convertible by even the most timid of us! But first, a bit of the gaiety-n-glee: Want to know the origins of the infamous "Mardi Gras" celebrations, the daily parades-n-beads-moon-pies-n-masks-n-wild revelry well-known in many southern USA states? 

Enjoy this fun, short article about how and where all the gaiety began:

Mobile, Alabama - Mother of all Mardi Gras

 

Of course, Mardi Gras does have respected and observed religious roots as well:

Stuffing
