This isn´t much of a recipe but it is my favorite lunch.
Take 1/3 pound lean ground beef, chopped up bacon, salt, pepper and mix together. Make a big hamburger and fry it up. Put lot´s of cheddar cheese on top, add a slice of tomatoe and lettuce and this keeps me going for hours.0 -
Tzaziki sauce
1-6oz container of Chobani non-fat plain yogurt
2oz finely diced cucumber (brunoise if possible)
1-TB finely diced fresh dill
1/2 Clove of garlic, finely chopped
Mix these ingredients together and chill for a couple of hours. Add a pinch of kosher salt and black pepper to taste...
I use Joseph's low-carb pita pockets for when I want a Chicken-Gyro... and this Tzaziki sauce is just awesome!
YIELD: 2 Servings
EACH SVG:
57 Calories
5g carbohydrates
0g fat

Can easily be done for FOUR servings as well.. this spreads EASILY!0 -

Im really happy with the way this tzaziki came out... cant wait to do greek-marinated steak tips, this would be KILLER!!0 -
One from my blog: Greek meatball stew
http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/metal_beau/view/greek-baked-meatball-stew-109653
Yummy greek spiced meatballs in an intense tomato sauce with aubergine (eggplant), crumbled feta cheese and olive topping.0 -
Another from the blog: Coriander (Cilantro) sambal- a very nice refreshing sauce. Can be used as a dipping sauce for oriental type things (Shrimp, lettuce wraps, veggies) or as a sauce for fish, red meat or chiken.

I anticipate there may be quite a few recipes (Well, I plan on posting lots!) so I thought I'd set up topics for each of the following:
Breakfast recipes
Lunch Recipes
Dinner Recipes- Starters/Appetisers/Canapes
Dinner Recipes- Main courses/Entree's
Desert Recipes
Snacks
Drinks/Smoothies/Shakes
Feel free to add to any of them.)

I like this idea very much - hopefully this will direct people better and keep their recipe suggestions better-categorized too!0 -

I made Eggs Benedict this morning and am so proud to say it only had 4 grams of carbs! Of course I left out the muffin, but I didn't miss it! Here's what I did:
3 poached eggs
3 slices Jones Dairy Farm Canadian Bacon
1.5 TBSP Betty Crocker Hollandaise Sauce
To make the sauce you need:
3 egg yolks
1 TBSP lemon juice
1/2 C (8 TBSP) butter
Combine the egg yolks and lemon juice in a saucepan vigorously. Over low heat add half the butter and stir constantly until melted. Add the other half of the butter and stir until melted. I use a small whisk to keep the lumps out of the sauce.
Macros for the meal as I made it were:
Calories-390
Protein-30
Fat-29
Carbs-4
Sodium-753
