So since there really aren't any forum areas for recipes, I wanted to start one.

Here is a great low protein, high healthy carb lunch.

50gm Red/Green Peppers
50gm Celery
30gm Mushroom
15gm Tomato Sauce (homemade preferred w/ basil)
50gm Carrots
2oz Ground Turkey (pre-cooked, or any other meat of your choice)

Chop the mushrooms into small pieces and start a sauté in a saucepan with 1/2tbsp Butter (not margarine, only real butter). Once the mushrooms have started to brown, drop in the Peppers. Cook those with the mushrooms until they start to brown. Drop in the celery & carrots. Soon as you start to smell the carrots, drop in the ground turkey and tomato sauce. Add 1 cup water. Add a dash of red pepper flakes (depending on the heat you want in the soup). Cook to a boil and simmer for about 10minutes.

Before you put the soup in the bowl, add 2tsp of Apple Cider Vinegar (only organic, found in the dressing isle) to the bowl. Pour soup and stir. Let cool for about 5minutes for the ACV to absorb into the vegetables. Then, ENJOY!

Note: Do not cook in the soup the ACV. It will cook all the nutrients out.

FOR CREAMER SOUP: Swap out the tomato sauce for 25gm of Pumpkin Puree.

NOT SATISFIED AT END OF SOUP? Next time swap the carrots out for a 1/4 of an Avocado. That will add some nice healthy fat to the meal.

    Here's a good one for a little twist and some added punch!

    Vegetable & Pork Soup w/ Side of Chocolate Yogurt

    2oz Pork - chopped in small pieces & cooked (weigh pork only after cooked)
    50gm Celery
    60gm Peppers
    15gm Tomato Basil Sauce (homemade)
    1cup Water
    Dash of Favorite Shredded Cheese

    Start by chopping up 2oz Pork into small bite-sized pieces, and fry in sauce pan. Once almost cooked, remove and put in foil. Weigh pork now. Put Peppers & Celery in sauce pan. Cook for 5min, stirring occasionally. In side container, mix Tomato Basil Sauce and 1 Cup Water. Pour into sauce pan. Add cooked pork. Add some Crushed Red Pepper Flakes for some good heat! I do about 8 shakes. Boil/Simmer for 5min or until the soup thickens just ever so slightly.

    In your serving bowl, add 2tsp Flax Oil & 2tsp Organic Apple Cider Vinegar. Pour soup in sauce pan into serving bowl. Add a dash of cheese to top of soup. DELICIOUS! I always add this to my soups. It really completes the soup.

    For dessert, have a Kroger CARBmaster Vanilla Yogurt. Add 1tbsp Cocoa Powder. I prefer the dark cocoa non-sweetened. Mix and enjoy some 'chocolate pudding' for dessert! YUM!!

    Note: If you want to do this for a dinner recipe - do 3oz Pork, 1/2oz Cheese, 45gm Peppers, 50gm Celery and 15gm Tomato Basil Sauce with no dessert. AMAZING!
