I do a lot of scrambles and bakes of various shapes and sizes, but have never added almond flour. I bet it gives it a little more cakey consistency. I love this idea. Thanks for the recipe!

Might not be as good, idk, but I dont gain with protein powder and the ingredients are simple and pure.

[Idreamofweightloss]

That's what I like about the recipe. Simple. And I just happen to have some torani sf pumpkin syrup. Gonna add a little.

[MsWoods]

Ooooh I bet that would be delicious.

[Tilly]

Mine turned out too runny. Maybe will cut back to one egg and then still be able to add the sf syrup. Taste was good, soooo easy, and with protein powder, good for me. Or add two scoops pp and just use 2 eggs, I'll play with it.

[MsWoods]

Wait, Tilly, did you add the sf syrup to the batter? I only added sf pancake syrup on top after I cooked them. When I made them, and all protein powder is different and reacts different, but I put the 2 eggs and baking powder in the bowl first, then mixed in the scoop of PP and mixed well. Then I added a little water until it was the proper consistency. If you do it in that order the batter being runny shouldn't be an issue because you control the moisture.

I'm glad ya liked it, though. It's definatley a great little recipe to play around with and make your own.

I love us so hard... Hey, Tilly-- you never know--that could have been the next "oopsie" recipe!

This one's just a super simple snack tray I put together for the teens last weekend: strawberries, cubes of pepper jack, colby jack and cheddar and macadamias.

[LindaSue]

This was my lunch today. I topped one of Peggy's Sesame Seed Sandwich Buns with some of My Favorite Sloppy Joes and a big scoop of My Favorite Coleslaw.

[Mona]

Linda Sue that looks fantastic!

Cleo you can bring the snacks anytime.

[buttoni]

Oh, my, that looks good, LindaSue. I haven't tried Sloppy Joes on the buns yet. Mmm. Maybe for dinner tomorrow, since I have some of those buns made up currently.

Okay, where on earth did you get the macadamia nuts? I have looked high and low for those buggers, and no luck. Someone told me not in season right now. What is the season for them? Love to have a plateful of everything in that picture!!!!

[Tilly]

Linda Sue, oh my gosh, only breakfast time here but I would eat that anytime! Is that your sloppy joe casserole?

[cleochatra]

Hi, Tilly! I find macadamias in different places. In some stores, the macs are in the popcorn/nut section of the store. Sometimes they're in the produce area with the nuts and organics, and sometimes they're in the part of the store with the bulk foods. I wish they stayed put in one spot. These particular ones I believe were in the bulk foods section because hubby couldn't spot them in the nut aisle. I find that if there's a super WalMart in the area, that's where prices tend to be most reasonable on nuts.

[Dottie]

The drought in Australia has put a big dent in the supply of macadamias as well, so if you find them you might want to stock up.

[cleochatra]

Ooh. I was wondering what was up. That's great information, Dottie. The nuts I normally buy are Mauna Loa type (less salty), but what hubby brought home are really salty. I almost have to rinse them to eat them!

I made the fabulous little gems yesterday and they were AMAZING!

MY FAVORITE SLOPPY JOES
1 pound ground chuck
1 small onion, chopped, 2 1/2 ounces
1 clove garlic, minced
8 ounce can tomato sauce
1/4 cup granular Splenda or equivalent liquid Splenda
1/2 teaspoon blackstrap molasses, optional
2 tablespoon vinegar
1 teaspoon mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum, optional

Brown the ground chuck along with the onion and garlic; drain the fat. Add the remaining ingredients, except the xanthan gum. Cover and simmer 30 minutes. If the sauce is too thin, thicken it with a little xanthan gum. Serve on low carb buns or over chopped lettuce (not included in counts).

Makes about 6 servings

TIP: An easy way to add the xanthan gum is to stir it into the ground beef after you've drained the grease and before you add the remaining ingredients.

Low Carb Sausage Cheese Balls ... mmm mmm GOOD!



RECIPE - LOW CARB SAUSAGE CHEESE BALLS

1 roll Owens or Jimmy Dean Regular Sausage
1 roll Owens or Jimmy Dean Spicy Sausage
2 1/4 cups Low Carb Baking Mix (prefer CarbQuik)
2 cups Sharp Cheddar Cheese (grated)

In a bowl, combine all ingredients, except water, and knead to solid ball of dough, making sure everything is well incorporated. The dough shouild feel slightly moist to the touch and should hold its shape well.

Form into small balls (approximately 1" in diameter) and place on cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray.

Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes until they are turning slightly brown. Pour off excess grease and let cool completely before removing from cookie sheet or they will tear.

Approximately .5 - 1 g of net carb per ball depending on the type of baking mix used.

Re: mac nuts - I have found them at Costco in the past few weeks at a reasonable price. They are the Kirkland brand.

Pancakes are my next breakfast! Thanks Michelle.

Everything looks seriously delicious! I am adding St. Patrick's Day noshes: Key Lime Bars
