    Cauliflower mac and cheese

    • 1 head cauliflower
    • 4 tbsp cream cheese
    • 1/2 tbsp. mustard (any kind)
    • 1 and 1/2 c. cheese (1/2 c. reserved for top)
    • Splash of cream
    • garlic powder
    • salt and pepper to taste
    Chop the heads off the cauliflower and steam until soft. Once soft drain and return to saucepan. Add cream cheese, cheese and cream and stir until incorporated. Add mustard, garlic powder, and salt pepper to taste. Be careful, it is delicious!
    . Even my husband who loathes cauliflower loved this! (I mean obviously you can barely taste the cauliflower with all the cheese ;)

    I like using the light swiss laughing cow cheese wedges with can tuna instead of mayo.

    I do jalapenos, sliced lengthwise and de-seeded, filled with full fat cream cheese, bacon bits or chopped cooked bacon, and topped with cheddar cheese. Bake until tender. Delicious!

    I made a chili verde and a zucchini lasagna last week that were yummy! I had left overs for several days afterward.

    Nice. I actually saw something similar and wanna make the zucchini lasagna. Next weekend for sure!! How'd it turn out?!

    Was the lasagna made from zucchini??
    Or was it regular pasta.

    Instead of the zucchini noodles for lasagna, I'm going to try these.


    Cauliflower noodles

    Ingredients
    3 cups cauliflower rice, packed
    3 eggs
    ½ teaspoon fine grain sea salt
    ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

    Directions
    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C), line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and grease with olive oil.
    In a food processor rice the cauliflower, until you get a texture finer than rice. Once it’s riced measure it and make sure you have 3 cups packed.
    Place cauliflower rice in a bowl and microwave on high for 2 minutes, give it a good stir and microwave for another 2 minutes.
    Place the cauliflower rice in a tea towel and twist it to squeeze as much moisture as you can (I usually squeeze out over a cup of liquid). This is very important. The cauliflower rice needs to be dry.
    Place drained cauliflower rice back in the bowl and add eggs, salt and pepper and mix until combined.
    Spread the mixture onto the lined baking sheet. Place in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
    Remove from the oven, let cool 5 to 10 minutes and carefully peel it off the parchment paper.
    Transfer to a large cutting board or work surface.
    Depending on the size and shape of your baking dish, cut the cauliflower noodles so that it will fit into the dish. Set aside. Then make your regular lasagna.

    I liked a few pages on facebook, they always post really good looking low carb recipes. Low Carbing Among Friends, Low Carb Zen, and Low Carb Keto Diet are nice pages.

    I also use IG but cannot link to it on the main forums, lots of people there using #lowcarb #lchf or #keto all post low carb recipes so that has been helpful.

    I've also been using this site for years, love it: http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/
