BUFFALO WINGS

I love me some fried chicken, but can’t do the flour. So to compensate, I bake wings in the oven till they are nice and crispy. I don’t use a lot of seasons Ya’ll.

INGREDIENTS
1. As many fresh chicken wings as you want. I’m greedy so I can eat 12 in one sitting!
2. 1 stick of butter
3. Garlic Powder
4. Wet Naps or moist cloth

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
2. Shake garlic powder all over them wings. Rub the powder in each wing like you are in love.
3. Place the chicken in a glass pan and either cut up the butter or place the whole stick in the pan.
4. Once the butter begins to melt, you want to make sure it covers the wings. No dry spots allowed.
5. Wings typically take at least 40 minutes to cook to desired crispiness.
6. Once done, douse those wings with your favorite hot sauce to your desired hotness. ( Frank’s Original Recipe is my sin)
7. Wipe hands between each wing.


That’s it Ya’ll. Very simple… But Very good

You can fry them without flour too. Up here almost no one flours their wings, I think it's an adaptation of traditional wings.

I'm definitely trying your version next time. I don't always like the hassle of frying, yours sound amazing with the garlic powder and butter, and of course Frank's!

Damn now I want wings!

Nope won't burn. Just plop those suckers in hot oil till done then smoother in sauce when out. I wish I had read this before reheating the roast from yesterday. It's 30 cent wing night in town . Next Monday for sure.

This is my new fav. If you are aware of the Atkins fat fast, you know how useful cream cheese is for low carbing. The only issue is it uses processed food so if you're a purist you'd have to adapt. I go back and forth but I'm currently eating some processed food (like this).

1 pkt sugar free jello gelatin mix any flavor, but I like black cherry

1 cup boiling water

1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese

Mix it at least a minute with a mixer until well blended. Pour into a large bowl and chill. It can later be sliced like a pie and served with berries. It's very yummy, pretty if you dress it up with whipped cream and berries, has a great mouth feel, high fat, low carb and keeps well for days.

Here's a photo of the last batch I made.

Thank you for sharing this, I just made some and it's delicious, but I think I did something wrong. Mine has tiny clumps of cream cheese in it, did I just not mix it long enough? Or am I suppose to melt the cream cheese first? (does cream cheese melt

I never melt mine. I just add it to the hot mix once the jello mix has completely dissolved. Then I whip it on high with a mixer for about two minutes.

Thanks @jessicalchf @KnitOrMiss I will try that next time it's still delicious. Could it be made with sugar free pudding too?

I don't think so. You can try. For SF pudding pie I do an almond flour and butter crust (melt butter, mix with enough flour to make a press in crust, bake for a few minutes and cool), and mix the SF pudding mix with two cups of heavy whipping cream instead of the milk the package calls for. Note this is for sugar free instant pudding. I have a picture of one I made with white chocolate SF pudding and studded with fresh blackberries. Ladies at church loved it.

Also the crust held up really well to slicing. It's the same concept as a graham cracker crust if you've ever made those. It doesn't need any sweetener or egg or anything to hold it together. Just almonds and butter.

Well somehow I missed this before trying it. It didn't work but I think maybe because I used almond milk and didn't boil it like it said so it didn't firm up. But it tasted good and was like 4-5 g carbs which works for me.

Cauliflower cakes..kinda like potatoe cakes (from pinterst)

Cauliflower, boiled then mashed
1egg
1 cup shredded cheese
Salt, pepper,cayenne pepper
Olive oil

After boiling cauliflower mash with potatoe masher, add egg, cheese, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper and mix. Add olive oil to pan, form patties and fry until golden brown. Can be served with sour cream....

@auntstephie321 ..... I love fried chicken too, you don't have to give it up. You can fry your chicken naked, like Buffalo a Wild Wings. I season my chicken with garlic powder, seasoning salt, pepper and parsley, crack an egg over the chicken and mix it all together, meanwhile the oil is getting hot in a pan big enough to deep fry. Once the grease is hot enough, place the wings in the oil, and fry until crispy. Comes out just as good as being fried with flour.

Yep that's how I do mine, no egg though. What kind of coating does the egg give?

That sounds amazing, and may be on my dinner menu this weekend.

Low Carb Fettuccine w/ Prosciutto

300g zero carb fettuccine noodles (from Myprotein.com in the UK) or similar
5 pieces prosciutto, diced
150ml single cream
30g hard cheese
Black pepper to taste

Oops! My photo shows the wrong flavor drops. It should be Apple Pie flavor. But the pumpkin pie is crazy good too!

Caramel Apple Pie yogurt. Just sayin...
4oz is 40 calories, 2.5g carbs.
I used 2 drops of flavor drops and 1.5 Tbs or so of the caramel syrup. Yum!

low-carb smoked salmon & avocado maki roll...



Sushi Nori x2
Full Fat Soft Cheese (cream cheese) 30g
Avocado 75g
Smoked Salmon 50g
Shredded cucumber/carrots (optional)

• Spread cream cheese on 1/3 of the nori.
• Layer smoked salmon and avocado (cucumbers and/or carrots) and roll tightly (use a bamboo mat if you have one).
• Wet finger and dab the edge of the nori to seal the roll.

Serve with wasabi and tamari (gluten free soy sauce).

I LOVE sour cream chicken enchiladas, as does the fam. So, I had to make it LCHF friendly. I use the Mission Brand Low Carb Tortillas, but you could do this as a casserole if you'd rather.

3 or 4 frozen boneless skinless chicken breast
2 small cans of diced green chiles
1to 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
16 ounces sour cream
1 T. Butter
1 cup extra sharp cheddar (or whichever cheese you love)

Boil Chicken until done. Drain, chop by hand or in the ninja/food processor and return to the pot. I add butter, one can green chiles, and a little broth to the chicken and let it simmer a bit. Depending on how moist you want the chicken will depend on how much broth you'd put in. Then I roll the chicken mixture into the tortillas in a glass baking dish...smeared with butter on the bottom of course.

For the sauce: sour cream, remaining broth, and the other can of green chiles into a small pot on medium heat until the sour cream starts to thin out. After its at the consistency you would like, pour it over the enchiladas. Top with cheese.

Bake at 350 until the cheese is all melty and bubbly... I usually make these so I can eat the left overs. I usually only eat 2 of these prepared because those tortillas get high in cals and I am leery of eating them more often than once a week.. if that.

[Edit] Oh lord, sorry the images are enormous.

I came up with this Chili recipe after finding out I'm allergic to tomatoes. Last night I decided to try making a LCHF version of it and I was super happy with the results. I was so excited to have something to share that I kept track as best as I could of the recipe. And obviously the seasoning can be adjusted to your taste.

The best part is pulling it out of the fridge the next day and seeing all the solid fat "grains" in it. All the fat emulsifies really well, which is a big deal to me because I just can't get behind the oil slick foods.

YULE LOG.
Start with recipe at http://www.taste.com.au/recipes/22748/choc+ripple+cake

*Surprisingly with a few tweaks I can eat this:
Substitute biscuits for zero sugar biscuits / cookies (low carb, gluten free, or whatever you are dodging).
*For a yule log we take each biscuit and add one teaspoon of tia maria to the underside of the biscuit, spread it around then add one teaspoon of coffee that is predissolved in water.
*Put whipped cream on other (top) side of biscuit.
Caution: Move quick. If your biscuit is too porous it will collapse so you are looking for a hard cookie to buy rather than a soft one. BTW USA folk: Aussie authors so biscuit is a harder cookie.
*Place biscuit then repeat so you use the topsides to put a layer of cream between each biscuit.
*In my family we use plain cream and vanilla plus this year I used a tiny bit of stevia (half teaspoon) for sweetness so my log ends up effectively covered in snow rather than looking chocolate brown like a true fire log.
*Leave set overnight or at least 4 hours.
*decorate. We have a soft chocolate in Australia that crumbles into flakey soft long pieces which we place on top. Called "flake" but up to you. I have seen marzipan mushrooms (growing in the cream) and festive holy etc as options. This year I am using scandanavian figures and some dutch haggelslag large chocolate pieces.

Based on scandanavian Christmas tradition of burning a log that has been gifted to you, with friends, celebrated in form of a cake. I am trying to use cookies with chocolate chips this year as that was all I could find. I am none to sure the nice cake texture will work but I cant eat chocolate ripples and I cant get them in Netherlands so thus the substitution.

Incidentally, my sister and I have made this ourselves since I was less than 9 years old and she was 6, so an easy one if you want to get the kids involved. Her junior primary teacher gave out the recipe as part of learning about other cultures. We felt very important and although we couldnt taste the alcohol we still enjoyed making it and were even aĺlowed a little try of the finished cake. Fun!! Quick too.

We have been making this cake in the US. Substitute "Famous Chocolate Wafers" for the AU brand. When I bring it to events, people are surprised at how delicious it is. I am going to have to research whether there are sugarfree wafers here as well.

This is for when you are craving carby sweets. I make a batch about once a week and I've lost weight eating this.

2 cups heavy cream
4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla flavoring
1/2 tsp almond flavoring (just because I love almond flavoring..but not really necessary)
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg or more sprinkled on top (again just because I love nutmeg)
A pinch or 2 of salt
1/2 cup swerve (I use Ideal) or other of your favorite crystal type sweetener - this makes it fairly sweet for me.
3 Tbs unsweetened shredded coconut

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix all ingredients together until sweetener is dissolved putting in coconut last to allow for easier mixing of wet ingredients. Pour into 5 - 6 oz ramekins. Put ramekins into a 8 x 10 pan, move pan to center rack in oven and fill pan with boiling water to about an inch deep. Put into a preheated oven at 350 for about 50 to 60 min. You know it's done when lightly brown on top and set firm.

Now here is an interesting note. If you eat it still warm it's like light custardy silk on your tongue. But if you let it cool, on the counter then put into the fridge after no longer warm, then chill for 6 to 8 hours, it's like a firm almost cream cheese flan. I love it both ways.

Carbs in entire mixture:
Cream - 13.2 carbs
eggs - 2.4
My flavorings have no carbs
Nutmeg - 0.5 carbs (0.25g fiber)
Coconut - 4 (2g fiber)
Ideal carbs (all from Xylitol) I do not count it in my net carbs

Net carbs per serving 3.37

I've been making my Low-Carb BBQ sauce for several weeks now, and figured I'd share it since it's getting to be BBQ season. This came about as I was originally trying to come up with a sort of spicey gravy, but could never get the taste or texture right. So I gave up on the gravy and went for a tangy BBQ sauce instead, and IMHO it's a hit.

As I was originally aiming for gravy, the base of this sauce is home-made bone broth, along with all the pan drippings from roasting. I do a pork roast almost every weekend, and then make broth from the bones. I'm sure this would work just fine with chicken or beef bone broth. You can use store-bought broth as well; I have when I had boneless roasts, but the canned broth isn't anywhere near as good as home-made.

~4 cups of homemade bone broth
3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 small tin (10 oz) tomato paste
2 fl oz Franks hot sauce (or to taste)
1 oz butter
1 tbsp liquid smoke
1 tsp minced dehydrated onion
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp salt (or to taste)
10 drops liquid Stevia (or to taste)

Throw everything except the butter into a big pot, bring it to a boil, then reduce heat and let it bubble for 30 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. I leave a lid on the pot but offset a bit so the steam can escape. The idea is to cook it down.

When it's nearly done, drop the butter in and stir it in as it melts. Allegedly this can help thicken it, and it adds some richness to the taste. (Probably optional.)

You'll know when it's done as it will have lost almost half its volume, it'll stick to the spoon, and will look and smell like BBQ sauce!

If you're using the homemade bone broth, you do not need any thickener. Between the tomato paste, the boiling, and the collagen and whatever else you get out of the bones, this will thicken up just fine. In fact once you refrigerate it, it can end up a bit too thick, but you can thin it with water or canned broth.

If you use canned broth as a base, I find it doesn't thicken as nicely, so use 1/4 to 1/2 tsp of Xanthan gum.

I usually get over a pint, around 18 or 20 fl oz, out of a little over 4 cups worth of combined ingredients at the start.

According to the MFP recipe calculator, dividing into six 3 fl oz portions, each portion has: 69 calories, 6g fat (2g saturated, 1g monounsaturated), 516mg sodium, 2g net carbs (5g total, 3g fiber), and 2g protein. These are *big* portions, considering most BBQ sauce you buy lists a portion as 1 or 2 tablespoons. If you use this as sparingly, the carbs and calories will be almost negligible.

This is hardly a recipe but when I was having Keto flu side effects and they recommend beef stock. I didn't like the taste of that so I added a tbsp of unsalted butter. Soooooo good! I drink it now for a treat. Sounds weird but it really good!!
