My picture of cooked Low-Carb Bacon-Wrapped Tilapia with 4 pieces of bacon on each fillet. The secret to this recipe is starting with frozen fish. Baking the fish from frozen gives the bacon time to slowly render and become crispy while the fish cooks gently. As the bacon cooks, its smoky flavor has time to season the fish, creating a tender, flaky fillet wrapped in crisp bacon. This simple technique is what makes this recipe so delicious. INGREDIENTS 4 frozen tilapia fillets

Through cooking, I get to experience healthy ingredients, nourishing traditions, and recipes from places I have never physically visited. Every culture has foods that tell a story, and many traditional dishes were built around simple, wholesome ingredients that nourished families for generations. This Mexican-inspired recipe reminds me that healthy low-carb food does not have to be boring or restrictive. It can be vibrant, flavorful, comforting, and deeply satisfying. God cre

Garlic not only tastes wonderful, but it also has many other potential health benefits. Some of its potential benefits include: May support heart health: Garlic may help lower blood pressure in people with high blood pressure and can modestly reduce LDL ("bad") cholesterol levels.

I wanted to create a side dish that was a little different from the usual low-carb choices like riced cauliflower or salad. While those options certainly have their place, sometimes we all want something warm, hearty, and satisfying that still supports healthier blood sugar goals. Combining chayote and edamame created a dish with great texture, good fiber, and added protein while keeping carbohydrates lower than many traditional side dishes. Chayote, also known as vegetable p

Having just made some Cole slaw and cut up more cabbage to ferment for Sauer kraut, I looked and saw how much more cabbage I had left over. I had the option of giving it to the chickens (they love cabbage) or making a side dish to go with the stuffed peppers I had just prepared to put in the oven. This is the recipe I decided to go with. Serves 4-6 Ingredients 1 small head cabbage, shredded (I used a 1.5-pound cabbage) 1 can Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies, und

How many times have you been told that you "can't have ........"? I'm here to let you know that you can have.......!!! It is a simple matter of putting together your favorite dish or dessert in a way that is delicious and healthy. My husband, Michael, is a chocoholic. If there is any to be found it is found and consumed at lightning speed. Here's a brownie recipe that he not only loves but CAN consume in lightning speed.

Entertaining can be difficult when it comes to eating low carb. You want a meal that is delicious for both you and your guests, but you also want to stay within your carb range. Cooking two different meals can definitely work but this dish combined with a side of riced cauliflower cooked in broth will have your guests genuinely asking for your recipe. INGREDIENTS 4 thick boneless pork chops, about 6 ounces each 1 tablespoon olive or avocado oil 1 teaspoon Paprika 1 teaspoon s

I love to cook but when it comes to baking, I seem to have trouble getting it right. My blueberry muffins come out too juicy or not quite done on the bottom. So, I decided to try something different with the blueberry muffin recipe that I had. I figured it could not get any worse, so I put cinnamon into the recipe. Why cinnamon? I had heard that there was a dare (yes, a dare) that no one could swallow a teaspoon of cinnamon. Probably because it absorbs all of the moisture in

Trying to include dishes for my husband Michael, who is lactose intolerant, can be very challenging. Many low carb recipes come with sauces and cheeses. This one is a pleasant surprise. It is simple, flavorful and delicious. INGREDIENTS 1 pound Tilapia 1 medium Chayote peeled, cored and sliced in 1/4-inch slice 2 cups broccoli florets, chopped small, bite sized 1 medium sweet onion peeled, cut in half and slices in 1/2 rounds 3 cloves garlic minced 2 tablespoons olive oil

Having worked nights as a nurse and ended my shift about 7am, I would be hungry but not too tired to cook. This has always been my favorite time of the day. I am wide awake and, on the drive, home I am mentally going over my "to do" list. This is the time when I feel like I can do just about anything. My husband, on the other hand, is not a morning person. He is a teacher and being such works five days a week. He stumbles out of bed at the last minute, showers, takes his meds

I just thought that I would try something different. I didn't know that this was even a recipe until after I cooked it and decided to google it just to see. As I'm sure I've told you before, Michael is lactose intolerant and so many low carb recipes have milk, cream or cheese added to it. Sometimes it is difficult to find simple recipes without these items. I have never been one to eat many different types of fish because I don't appreciate a strong fishy taste or smell. This

Summertime signals the time for back yard barbeques, house parties and all other types of warm weather gatherings. A staple side dish is potato salad. Unfortunately, potato is synonymous with carbs. For those with diabetes it can put quite a damper on things. This recipe offers a refreshing alternative, and when put together right, offers your tastebuds a tasty delight. INGREDIENTS 1 large head of cauliflower cut into bite sized pieces 3 hard boiled eggs, shelled and diced

I love breads and this muffin is no different. Although this muffin may satisfy for a moment it also reminds me of the One who said, "I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst." John 6:35. INGREDIENTS 1/4 cup flax meal 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1 1/2 teaspoons Splenda (or Monk fruit) 1 large egg 1 teaspoon butter 1 teaspoon cinnamon DIRECTIONS Put dry ingredients in coffee mug and stir Add egg and butter mix (

Born and raised in upstate New York then lived in Central New Jersey for 30 some years, I would never have tasted or even contemplated trying to cook a poblano, let alone make a sauce. I had never even heard of a poblano pepper until I moved to deep south Texas. Learning about different cultures and foods is so gratifying. I am proud to say that I can cook Mexican food that is incredibly delicious and low carb at the same time. Philippians 2:3-4 says "Do nothing out of selfi

I recently had a yen for something Italian, but I did not want the typical tomato sauce. I wanted to try something different, so I came up with this recipe.

This pizza crust was my second attempt, and it really was delicious. The first time I did not put in the yeast and I'm glad that I did this time. It gave the crust a bread like taste. The total Net Carb count per slice was 7.68 grams with the plant-based cheese. If you were to use real mozzarella cheese the Net Carb count per slice would be 4 grams. As you know, my husband is lactose intolerant and that is why I opted for the plant-based cheese. The first time I made this cru
