What do you do when you really want egg salad on a toasted piece of sourdough bread but you don’t want a crossover? Low-fat cottage cheese and mustard blended together, mixed with diced hard boiled egg whites added just the right touch to make a Fuel Pull Egg Salad that not only tasted wonderful but tricked the eyes in looking like it was made with whole eggs. It was delicious served on toasted Sourdough bread with slices of tomatoes, onions, and lettuces leaves. Serving it on sourdough bread made my lunch a E from the carbs in the bread but it also can be served on lettuce leaves for a FP.
This tangy sweet barbecue sauce takes wings, pork, and ribs to a new level. Best of all, it isn’t filled with all kinds of sugar and corn syrup. I love this sauce and always keep it on hand for any kind of meat. I have even canned large amounts in the summertime using sauce from fresh tomatoes.
These Crab Stuffed Mushroom are great for parties, get-together, or just when you want something special. I cut these in quarters or if you prefer individual servings you can use button mushroom. Our family can never get enough of mushrooms and made this way they are incredible.
Blustery winter days call for steaming bowls of soup. This recipe is a lighter version and a Fuel Pull. You can pair it with a slice or two of Whole Wheat Sourdough bread for an E meal or with a low-carb cheese quesadilla for an S meal. I cooked the ham stock from the leftover Christmas Ham using my Insta-pot which was quick and so easy. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.Continue reading →
As 2018 draws to a close, I was looking back over my blog to see what has been the most popular recipe. Honey Oat Sourdough Bread tops the list and this recipe follows close on it heels. Do you love lemon as much as I do? This taste just like the filling for lemon meringue pie but in a drinkable custard. Try it, you may be surprised how good it really is.
Bags of plump cranberries on store shelves tell us that Christmas is just around the corner. Cranberries freeze very well so I buy a number of bags to freeze to use later in the year. I love their tartness in cheesecakes, pies, drinks, and also dried for snacking. They also star in this glaze. Spiral-cut Ham baked with cranberry sauce will be served for our Christmas dinner this year.
Two English Walnut trees grace the front yard of the old home place where my parents live and my grandparents before them. These trees were planted by my grandparents who prized the nuts for baking. Memories were made picking up the walnuts with my grandmother and spreading them in the attic to dry. Over the winter months my grandfather would sit at the kitchen table shelling them. I much prefer English walnuts over Black Walnuts which have a more bold earthy taste.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine almond flour, baking mix, baking powder, and salt together. In mixer bowl, cream butter and preferred sweetener for 2 minutes. Add vanilla and egg. Mix well. Add almond flour mixture and mix for 3 minutes. Shape dough into balls and flatten to ½ in thick. Press an indentation in the center. Combine filling ingredients. Fill indentation with walnut filling, mounding slightly. Bake for 6-8 minutes or until very lightly browned. Store in refrigerator. 30 cookies.
*English walnuts are the typical shelled walnut you will find in most grocery stores across the US. They have been cultivated to produce a large, easy to shell, mild tasting walnut. These are what most people prefer. However, there is another walnut called the California Black Walnuts that is native to the US. They have a bold, earthier flavor with very hard shells that are tough to crack and will stain your hands black. My family prefers the English walnut as the Black Walnut seems to be an acquired taste.
*cookies will be very soft when baked but will set as they cool. These are the best not over-baked.
*Brown Sugar Sweetener Substitute is a homemade sweetener mix that tastes just like brown sugar. You can use THM Gentle Sweet if you prefer.

Our family enjoys this part of the year that includes deer hunting. Many memories have been made around the archery targets in our back yard. And, yes, I even enjoy hunting using a crossbow. Venison roast is a favorite at our house and is the first item to be made when we harvest a deer. Our family tradition is to process all our venison and smoke bologna, jerky, and snack sticks. This recipe is also very good with a beef roast if you do not have access to venison.
Soak roast in water and 2 tablespoon salt overnight. Place venison roast in a crock-pot. Cover completely with water. Add garlic and salt. Cook on high for 6 hours. Drain water. Combine sauce ingredients. Pour over roast and cook n high for 1-2 hour. The meat should be very soft and falling off the bones. Serves 8-10.
**Insta-pot version: place roast in Insta-pot. Add pepper, onion, garlic, salt, and water to almost cover roast. Place lid on Insta-pot, select meat setting, and cook for 1 hour and 45 minutes. Release pressure manually. Carefully pour off water. Combine sauce ingredients and pour over roast. Cover with lid, select meat setting, and cook for 20 minutes. The meat should be very soft and falling off the bones.
*The meat is very hard to cut off of the neck bones. It makes a very good roast and is a favorite at our house
*This recipe can also be used with a beef roast.

Our family loves rice made many different ways. There are times when I want rice with Sweet N Sour Fried chicken and that is where this recipe comes in. It is so delicious!! My nephew is in mission/relief work in Nepal and keeps me supplied with saffron. Saffron is an expensive spice but a little goes a long way and I do use it in certain dishes.
Melt oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add riced cauliflower, water, saffron, garlic, and onions . Saute until tender, stirring constantly. Add coconut milk, salt, unsweetened coconut, and turmeric. Heat thoroughly. Garnish with green onions or chives. Serves 3-4. THM S
This is a tasty side dish with grilled chicken or curry.

Are you in need of a tasty budget-friendly meal? This dish combines ground turkey and beef to cut down on the cost and you really don’t even notice it. Riced cauliflower is very easy to make with a food processor and you can use the entire head not just the florets. There are times that I will add cooked brown rice and corn to this dish for a THM Crossover for my working men.
