    Have been hungry for ribs - could you share your recipe/method? Wonder how well it would do on pork - would think just fine...

    hi susannah!

    i just put the ribs on foil in a large pan and sprinkled some powdered garlic and montreal steak seasoning on the convex side, then put them in a 325 oven. i added sliced onions to the top for the last hour--the onions add some sweetness. i use the larger aluminum foil, so i pull the extra width loosely up over the ribs a bit, leaving an inch of space down the center of the pan, i think it keeps the edges from getting too dry. you could loosely tent them, instead. every hour i flipped them so that the two sides each simmered in the fat. i don't cut them apart until they are done, to keep the meat more tender. if you poke them with a fork after a couple hours and they are soft, take them out and cut them apart.

    i do this with baby back ribs and st louis ribs [pork]. you can speed it up by either boiling them for a little while before cooking, or start out with the oven at 400, then lower it to 325 after 30 minutes or so.

    it's all very unstructured. lol

    oh wow. it's funny to find a new favorite food when you're 54. lol spaghetti squash! i like it better than pasta. after pasta i always feel like i ate a lead weight. this turned out really well.

    spaghetti squash with spinach, onions garlic and bacon by Rusty Clark, on Flickr

    i even forgot the salt and pepper til i was almost finished eating. that doesn't happen very often. the bacon was nuked, since i was hungry, but it seems like you need it to balance the slightly sweet onion/squash flavors.

    here's where i nabbed the reciped i started with. i used spinach instead of turnip tops, and coconut oil but much less than the recommended olive oil; just wasn't necessary.

    This was my lunch at Noodles and Co. today. You can get a nice low carb meal even at a place with "Noodles" in the title, and they don't even blink an eye at your order. Love it!

    Caesar Salad, no croutons, with marinated steak and the Thai Curry soup without the rice noodles. Very tasty. It didn't look like there was much steak in the salad, but there was a nice serving, and it was super tender and yummy,
