Cleochatra's Revoloopsie Rolls (home-made hamburger buns and more) - Page 51

me too!

Yummy's_Girl · 03-30-2008, 06:26 AM

I came up with a new use for oopsies. Well, to me it is new.

I made a strawberry and cheesecake oopsie parfait!

I took pics of it but am about ready to go to bed for the day. (I work nights)

If anyone is interested, I will post the pic later tonight if I can figure out how to post pics.

It was yummy, by the way!

lilymo · 03-30-2008, 11:38 AM

Hi all, made my first batch today. Question: do you use two for a burger roll etc. or do you split them in half like a regular roll, using one? Thanks...

cleochatra · 03-30-2008, 11:47 AM

No, you don't split. You use two rolls for one sandwich.

lilymo · 03-30-2008, 03:23 PM

Ok, thanks Cleo. I saw that after I made them, they were too thin to split. But boy oh boy are they good!! They taste quite a lot like a popover. I had one with just butter warm out of the oven and am planning on having to make more by tomorrow

DolphinsOnMyMind777 · 03-30-2008, 04:59 PM

I just made a triple recipe to get me through my week. I love them warm with butter and vanilla syrup on them.

Yay! I figured it out!

Here is my new creation using an oopsie! Strawberry Cheesecake Oppsie Parfait!

I used my favorite no bake SF Cheesecake recipe, half a jumbo bun sized oopsie and fresh strawberries.

Guests loved these!

Mallory · 03-31-2008, 08:18 AM

those look great!!! Good job..and I bet they were delish..

cleochatra · 03-31-2008, 08:19 AM

Beautiful, Yummy's! That is absolutely gorgeous!

LindaSue · 03-31-2008, 08:41 AM

Yummy's_Girl, that reminds me of that dessert where you layer angel food cake with whipped cream and berries.

Great summer time dessert!! Thanks!

lilymo · 03-31-2008, 11:18 AM

Today I toasted my oopsies and used two torn into pieces as a scooper for spinach-artichoke dip YUM but my fave way so far still is warmed with butter on top.

Cats for Texas · 03-31-2008, 12:01 PM

I used two of my 6 oopsies made with 3 Tbs flax meal + 2 splendas. Used kind of like shortcakes and layered fresh strawberries mixed with a sour cream plus cream plus sweet n low mixture. Delicious. Thanks for the ideas, everyone.

Molly_1010 · 04-02-2008, 11:36 PM

I just want to say again that Oopsies are a total lifesaver. I even took a half dozen on business travel with me this week (in a tupperware container so they wouldn't get smooshed in my suitcase. Just amazing. I was able to eat airport burgers, sub sandwiches, whatever came my way.

So far no one has really noticed that I'm switching out the buns, lol.

ixtapacheryl · 04-06-2008, 05:06 AM

Ok here is another idea and maybe one of you gals can figure out how to make these using the Revol. Rolls instead of crescent rolls.

Here is the original recipe... and they are absolutely delicious.

2 pkgs. of crescent rolls
1 stick butter
8 oz. cream cheese
2/3 C of dried minced onion flakes

Mix together the butter, cream cheese, onion. Unfold the crescent rolls. Put dollops of mixture onto each little triangle (you can cut them smaller if you want). Roll up and bake 10 minutes/350 degrees. Absolutely out of this world served warm but also good cold.

Could this be done somehow using the Revol. rolls?

sungoddess · 04-06-2008, 09:43 PM

I just invented a great version of the oopsie !

( I started a separate thread )

I call it Sun's Avo-oopsie!! I have made oopsies with ricotta, cream cheese, and mayo, but most often with cream cheese. I wanted to cut back on the cream cheese a bit, so I tried substituting avocado. I love 'em even though they be a wee bit Irish green in color. The flavor is about the same as regular oopsies.

I love avocados on my sandwiches, so now it is in my sandwiches. Avocados are great with Mexican food of course, so I also made a batch with green chili pepper in them for an additional spice treat.

It makes a great sandwich and avocado is an incredibly nutritious fruit. Avocado is almost a complete food, so along with the incredible edible egg, what a combination! They are full of potassium and vitamin A. Avocados are rich in beta-sitosterol, a natural substance shown to significantly lower blood cholesterol levels. And avocados are a good-for-you fat.

You can sub them out for the cream cheese ounce for ounce, but this is what I did.

Sun's Avo-oopsie Recipe

Separate 3 eggs. ( I personally pour a bit of organic egg white in the carton to my whites to make the whites a bit more than 3 eggs-worth) but this is not necessary.

Begin whipping the bowl of whites. Then add 1/8 tsp cream of tartar. As soft peaks form, add a generous pinch or two of xanthan gum. Beat until stiff.

Pick a RIPE Hass avocado. Be sure it is ripe or it won't work! When selecting one at the store, it will definitely yield to pressure. Or if they are hard, place in a brown paper bag to ripen. I used a small -sized avocado. Halve it and scoop out the flesh and weigh out about 3 ounces. My small one came to slightly over 3 ounces of flesh, so I used the whole thing.

Mash it up well in a bowl. I actually used my beaters to make it smooth and creamy. Beat in the 3 egg yolks and until green and creamy smooth. You can add your spices here if you want.

Fold the mixture together until all white streaks and green streaks are well mixed. Put into six muffin top pans and bake in a 300 degree oven until browned.

Enjoy!

(sorry I cut the picture off a bit) you can see itty bits of green. One batch is in a muffin top tin and one is free-form plop on a cookie sheet.

Mair · 04-07-2008, 02:49 PM

Made my first batch of oopsies yesterday and they turned out perfect. Now I have to get a muffin top pan. Even passed the test of my husband. Thank you Cleo! These make it so much easier to stay low carb and tonight I am making on of the strawberry cakes for hubby's birthday tomorrow.

jenna... · 04-07-2008, 05:10 PM

I've used Wilton pans, Mini-cheesecake pans and my favorite is the Muffin Top Pan! This is the perfect size and clean-up's a Breeze!

Cats for Texas · 04-07-2008, 05:16 PM

I used leftover Oopsies, warmed in micro, with a little butter atop. Then drizzled a combo of Davinci's Vanilla & Caramel for syrup and perfect pancakes. The texture, what with the added flax meal, was EXACTLY like pancakes. So simple; so delicious.

gweny70 · 04-08-2008, 08:42 AM

I tried these for the first time last night and they turned out really well! I was really very skeptical after I experienced very unsucessful results with the Rev Rolls but fortunately this was different! They turned out GREAT!! This morning I was so anxious to actually try them....and finally decided to use them as OOpsie Frenchtoast---YUM! What a nice deviation from my normal scrambled eggs or Atkins shake. I think tomorrow morning I will use them to make an Egg McMuffin. THANK YOU CLEO! Low Carb eating already was full of wonderful foods (steaks,burgers,etc) but this will definitely help take it to a new level for me & make it even more enjoyable and liveable!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!!!!

ChefCary · 04-08-2008, 02:35 PM

Okay, okay.... I saw all the pictures.... I skipped a WHOLE bunch of posts (do you see how many they are just about these??????) ..... .and I finally tried them this morning...... and this afternoon..... and had my kids taste them... (BIG mistake, btw.... just because I have to SHARE now!!!).....

I'm hooked. I can't BELIEVE they are that awesome!!!!! (Yes, I had read the comments, like I said.... but I'm a doubting Cary!)

AND - they are really really easy to make!!!!! (yes, I took Home Ec in high school, and it doesn't hurt I went to Culinary school!)

I can envision SO many uses... and I've got to go back and read all the threads to see how many of them you guys have already thought of!

Okay - I'm done raving now. For now, anyways.

THANKS, cleochatra!!!!!!

made the pizza last night and got raves. Also make a strawberry cake with cream cheese frosting. Hubby and son liked it but I thought it was a bit to eggy for me but still a good stand in.

lowcarblulu · 04-09-2008, 02:21 PM

Sorry I may have missed some of the posts in this huge thread, but I was wondering if anyone has tried making oopsies with sour cream or Fage yogurt in place of the cream cheese.

I would think the tanginess would be great. Has anyone tried this? Maybe I'll give it a go tonite.

theislandgirl · 04-09-2008, 09:36 PM

Just made a plain cake-size one with half cream cheese and half "Better'n Cream Cheese" made from Tofu. Came out just fine.

If I was to make it with yogurt, I'd use strained natural high-fat yogurt, otherwise I think there might be too much water in it...
