Low-Carb Zucchini Muffins

Saturday, July 27, 2013
The garden is in full swing -- we are harvesting tomatoes for table use daily (a couple more weeks before canning and salsa production levels) and zucchini -- LOTS of zucchini. Before I became a low-carb zealot my favorite things to do with the over-abundance of garden zukes was muffins and breads.

Mexican Meatloaf

Sunday, July 14, 2013
If there is anyone still out there reading -- THANK-YOU!! I have had some computer difficulties and some changes recently. The last few years have been years of change for me....change continues. I have relocated 2 hours (and a new state) away. Change can be good and this one is GREAT. More to come.

Recently a friend told me about a new favorite for her family -- Mexican Meatloaf.


Italian Meatball Bake w/Zoodles

Wednesday, May 29, 2013
Italian Food isn't usually what you think of when you *think* low-carb BUT there are many pasta-less options. One of my favorites is Zoodles -- julienne cut zucchini -- very pasta like in consistency and very flavorful. A fantastic side to this Italian Meatball Bake recipe!!

Lately I have been trying to get more fish into my diet. I used to be much better at that than I am now but fell off the wagon at some point. I took a good look at some of the recipes I used to enjoy and think I understand why -- many of them are not very low-carb friendly. 



Low Carb Tortillas & Fish Tacos

Thursday, April 18, 2013
I grew up in San Diego, CA and developed a love for fish tacos early on. It is hard to get a good one outside of Baja - and now that I dwell in the Midwest, let's just say it's impossible BUT I have been making my own for eons now -- I even figured out how to enjoy them low carb.
