    I promised I'd show these - I made homemade gyros earlier this week, with 1/2 ground lamb and 1/2 beef, homemade tzaztiki sauce, and using low carb pita loaves (Joseph's Bakery)

    I haven't checked this thread in a while. So inspiring! Thank you to everyone who shared. This helps with my "bored with LCHF"/in a rut issue. (I have a massive Pinterest board of recipes but for some reason this thread is speaking to me a lot more.)

    @Gallowmere1984 Recipe for above? Looks sort of like spinach pizza or quiche? Have you ever frozen individual slices?

    Some of these are impressive. And yummy-looking. I may have to start cooking again; right now I'm in a phase where I slap meat on the BBQ or into a cast-iron pan, make a salad, and cook the Spousal Unit a potato, since he weighs about 3 pounds soaking wet.

    That is precisely the recipe for what I posted. Sorry for taking so long to get back to this. It's been a ridiculous couple of days.

    ETA: no, I've never frozen it. I just put them in the fridge in individual containers, and grab one when I want it. I can tell you from experience though, that even just under normal refrigeration, it's still just fine, even two weeks later.

    sure! The smell & flavor is incredible. This is the recipe I used (ended up using ground veal, store didn't have plain ground pork):

    Gyoza Meatballs from Well Fed 2
    Serves 2-4 | Prep 10 min | Chill 20 min | Cook 20 min | Whole30 approved
    Meatballs:
    1/4 pound shitake mushrooms, stemmed and finely chopped
    1/8 head green cabbage, very thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
    1 tablespoon coconut aminos or homemade substitute (I use low-sod soy sauce)
    1 pound ground pork
    1/2 cup water chestnuts, minced
    2 scallions, very thinly sliced (about 1/4 cup)
    1 tablespoon chopped chives (dried or fresh)
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon powdered ginger
    1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
    1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
    3 cloves garlic, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
    2 tablespoons warm water
    1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
    1/4 teaspoon baking soda

    NOTE: Why cream of tartar and baking soda? Traditional ground meat recipes are usually tenderized with breadcrumbs. I use a cream of tartar/baking soda combo to keep the meat light and juicy, with a nice, crisp exterior.

    Directions:
    Preheat oven to 400F. Cover a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Heat a large, non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, cabbage, and coconut aminos to the pan; cover and steam until soft, about 5 minutes. Set aside until cool to the touch.

    In a large mixing bowl, place the cooled vegetables, pork, water chestnuts, scallions, chives, salt, ginger, crushed red pepper flakes, black pepper, sesame oil, and garlic. In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix the water, cream of tartar, and baking soda with a fork until combined. When it fizzes, add to the meat and mix until all the ingredients are evenly distributed. Place in the fridge to chill for 15 minutes or up to overnight. (Chilling makes the balls easier to roll. If you’re in a hurry, you can skip the chilling step.) Meanwhile…

    Moisten your hands and a 1 tablespoon measuring spoon or scoop with cold water and shake to remove excess. Measure out the meat and roll into a ball between your palms. Line up the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet, about 1/2 inch apart. Slide the Gyoza Meatballs into the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through. Serve hot with dipping sauce for dunking on a bed of Oven-Roasted Cauliflower Rice… or drop them into this Gyoza Soup with Pork Broth.


    *I actually bought some Oriental Flavor ramen soup to use the flavor packets from for these meatballs, if I felt like broth w/ them...toss the noodles away

    I don't have nutritional data on these & never bothered to figure it out for myself...sorry


    Finally got back to this thread (I lost it when on vacation). Thanks for the recipe! That's a lot of ingredients, so I'll have to try it on a full paycheck grocery week! LOL

    One of my favorite meals lately and desserts (mug cake topped with cream cheese sweetened with a little stevia and topped with a few slices of strawberry). I only have this every once in a while but the burger I could literally eat every day!

    @noclady1995 - Would you share your basic mug recipe? I've yet to find one that worked well for me, but this looks amazing!
