What's for supper???

RaJoCo

Sure, it's really simple...

Orange Carrot Cornmeal Cookies

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon packed finely grated orange zest
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 cup all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled) <----I substituted with almond flour to make it Gluten Free
1/2 cup fine cornmeal
1 medium carrot, grated on small holes of a box grater (about 1 cup)

DIRECTIONS

STEP 1
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl, mix butter and sugar with a wooden spoon until pale and fluffy. Stir in vanilla, orange zest, and salt. Add (almond) flour and cornmeal and mix until mixture is crumbly. Add carrot and stir until a thick dough forms.
STEP 2
Drop dough by rounded tablespoons, 2 inches apart, onto two parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until cookies are light golden brown at edges, 25 to 30 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Let cool completely on wire racks.

Enjoy!

Thanks for the recipe. If I can get caught up, I will give it a try.

I joined my wife and a couple of her friends at the Main Street Station, a restaurant in Blountstown Fl near where I work. I had the chicken, steak and shrimp fajitas, some of the wife's fried green beans and sweet potato waffle fries, and an order of steamed veggies with cheese sauce one of the ladies didn't want. I also had rice and re-fried beans, but I ate them before I thought of pictures. It was all very good, and I still have at least half of my order left for lunch tomorrow.

2 small Pancakes using coconut oil for greasing the pan, 2 poached eggs and then for snack a dark chocolate sugar free pudding and a 1/2 TBSP of coconut oil straight from the spoon.

Bummed because I didn't hit my fats and proteins today.

Everything grilled. Pork steak marinated in Korean BBQ sauce, red potatoes, portobello mushroom caps, and asparagus, drizzled with olive oil, salt and pepper. Low carb as I had three small taters.

When I got up this morning, I found a recipe jotted down on a note pad. My wife had woke early and thought up a way to use the leftover BBQ Turkey Sausage Burgers. It turned out pretty good. I had planned to add fresh green beans and Jalapeno, but we ran out of time. There is always next time. Also had corn on the cob and a cucumber, tomato and bell pepper salad. {all fresh out of the garden}

Larro's BBQ Turkey Sausage Burger Noodle Stir-fry

2 leftover burgers
16 oz package of sugar snap peas stir-fry
1 cup corn {out of the garden}
1/2 cup onion
1/2 cup bell pepper {out of garden}
2 blocks beef flavor Ramen noodles

Stuffed meat balls
16 oz 90% lean ground beef
3/4 cup bread crumbs
1 med egg
3 mozzarella sticks cut up into 5 pieces each
Add whatever spices you want.
Serve over pasta or rice. We had angel hair tonight.

Also, if you have a gluten allergy, use oatmeal instead, but the calories will be different.

Mix the bread crumbs, egg and meat into a glass bowl. weigh out 39 grams of the mix and roll into a ball. This will make about 15 meatballs. Put a denture into the middle of each meatball and add a piece of cheese and pinch and smooth back over. Bake at 375 for 20 to 25 minutes.

I also ate some watermelon for dessert.

Aw man, I didn't take a pic. But we had lemon pepper salmon, grits (with a tbsp of butter and an oz of extra sharp cheddar; sprinkle of salt and pepper), and broccoli. Yummy. My favorite dinner plus it only comes in at 480 calories. SCORE.

It was roasted chicken breast, corn on the cob, green beans with new potatoes and fresh black eyed peas. Almost everything we had tonight was out of the garden. Including the salad and Pico de Gallo.
