This family favorite is Atkins friendly and I made it again for dinner last night.  I thought I’d repost this delicious dish for those that are new to my site.  Be sure to omit the wine if you’re still on Induction Phase of Atkins program.   Got to be honest, it won’t be as good without the wine, so you might want to hold off until you’re out of Induction to try this one.    I serve this dish to company often and it’s always a hit!     I actually won the Galveston Daily News Holiday Recipe Contest with this recipe back in the 80’s.  You can ac ..read more

Eggplant Lasagna

When I defrosted my spaghetti sauce for tonight, I didn’t just want to make spaghetti.  I bought a beautiful eggplant yesterday, so I decided to throw it all together into one of my fav Italian dishes.  It always comes out real tasty.  This dish is Induction friendly if you can fit the carbs into your day.    I find with the cheese, this dish is salty enough without added salt. This is not a particularly large recipe, so if you want extra so there will be leftovers for freezing, I would recommend doubling the recipe.  This recipe is not suitable until Atkins Phas ..read more

Oatmeal Cookies

Made my hubby some delicious oatmeal cookies this morning.  He’s been asking me to for some time, so I finally got around to it.  These are kind of chewy and remain so after they cool.  I’m very pleased with the chewy texture of these and have used this basic cookie dough for many cookie variations over the last 2 years. So far I have done variations with fresh cherry, pineapple and pecan, dried prune , currant-spice, pumpkin, and chia-chai .  All have been delicious.  If you’re tired of dry/brittle cookies and seek a low carb cookie that is moist and chewy, this one ..read more

Lebanese Baked Chicken (Frarej)
Buttoni's Low-Carb Recipes
by Peggy

This recipe has been one of my most popular and most visited recipes to date.  Our best friends in Dallas have taken us several times to a wonderful little Lebanese restaurant over in Ft. Worth named Hedary’s.  Family-operated for many years, I can say their tabouleh  salad and kebabs are to die for!  So is their slow-roasted baked lemon chicken known as Frarej.  For those tables positioned close enough to do so, they used to serve their fresh-baked pita bread all the way from behind the counter on long, paddled poles.   Don’t know if they still do that, but ..read more

Strawberry Flax Muffins

A delicious afternoon or breakfast treat for your family.  And at less than 3 net carbs per muffin, you can’t go wrong compared to a high carb muffin, that’s for sure.  I’m making a pan of these today to have for a quick breakfast with coffee.  They are similar to the famous Atkins One-Minute Muffins, so I think you’ll like them.  Be sure to wait until you get to the nuts rung of the Atkins carb-reintroduction ladder to enjoy these due to the almond flour in them.    INGREDIENTS:  2 c. flax meal 1 c. almond flour 1 T. oat fiber (omit for gluten-free version ..read more

Einkorn Herb Biscuits

These biscuits were inspired by a recipe for Garlic Butter Keto Bread at Eatwell101.com. I made some changes in ingredients, amounts and how I baked them.  The final product was so good I felt compelled to post it on my blog for you all to try some time.  This recipe with my modifications is not suitable until you are adding back grains during Atkins Phase 2.  These were very filling and we could only eat one, which is good, because they are a little higher in carbs than most of my breads.  But they were delicious!  I served them with lobster tails and salad tonight. M ..read more

These lunch goodies are constructed using my Fluffy Biscuits dough for the bottom part of the muffin.  I’m always afraid they won’t cook thoroughly in the center, but they always do.  They are simply delicious! My husband prefers regular pizza sauce over the thin tomato slices, but I don’t always have any on hand ready made up (or bottled low-carb sauce in the pantry).  I actually prefer the fresh tomato better as I find it less heavy.   We will be making these again I’m sure!  They are not suitable for Induction.  Use all Jennifer’s homemade bake mix for a glute ..read more

Banana-Coco-Nutty Candy

I don’t eat many sweets, but when I do, it’s usually a bite of candy of some sort.  I got to thinking about my Peanutty Coconut Candy yesterday, which I haven’t made in ages, and wondered what it would be like with banana in it.  So I mashed one of the beautiful bananas I bought at the store yesterday morning and just took equal amounts of the main ingredients.   That decision made for  some of the tastiest candies!  They are very filling, too, as just one one these takes the edge off my occasional sweet tooth.  I think I may even like this version better th ..read more

Spicy Cheese Cornbread Loaf

I was asked by my husband to cook a pot of pinto beans and ham with some cornbread tonight.  I don’t like to eat such a carb-y meal, so I only ate a couple boiled eggs and 1/2 avocado during the day in plans for the carb-y dinner tonight.   I modified my Jalapeno-Cheese Bread recipe that has been on my website for years now and changed things up a bit.  I added onion powder and a hefty amount of cayenne pepper, along with a small amount of actual cornmeal.   We both LOVED the result!  This bread is not suitable until you reach Maintenance Phase of Atkins, si ..read more

Butter Sriracha Pot Roast

The pan juices this roast makes, melded with the butter, Sriracha sauce and caramelized onion are so sweet and tasty I spooning it out onto my meat at the table, wasting not a smidgeon.  Sometimes I’ve even been known to lick the pan before I wash the dinner dishes.  I make sure to not use much Ranch seasoning so as not to drown out the magic of the other flavors.  Man, is this roast ever good!   If you’re a pot roast fan, this one is definitely worthy of your time.  I’ll bet you add it to your regular rotation roast recipes.  It’s THAT good!    It ..read more
