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

[cleochatra]

Incidentally, picture this: A reader just told me she's had oopsies with turkey and real cranberry sauce as a sandwich.

I am drooling over here.I love Thanksgiving and I LOVE turkey and cranberry sauce.

[Charski]

We cooked two turkeys over the Mother's Day weekend - and I made homemade LC cranberry sauce - and you can BET I had me some sammies with Oopsies, turkey, mayo, Vidalia onion, and cranberry sauce!

I just said to DH last night it's about time to cook another turkey....

It looks like Blogger is either having problems today or they got hacked. I noticed that someone else's low carb blog disappeared today too.

[cleochatra]

That stinks! Thanks for the update, Linda. Here's hoping Blogger will be able to rectify these situations in short order.

[girl81]

Is there a thread for just oopsie pics?

[cleochatra]

Unfortunately, no. I have many on my blog under recipes, but am moving them all to my column at Examiner.com.

Here is my latest.

[cleochatra]

Sorry! That got a little bit HUGE. It's a blackberry shortcake.

[LindaSue]

That's so pretty, Cleo.

[cleochatra]

Thank you! It's too big. Nuts.

Oh gosh, I just made one (before I read this!) with strawberries! No pictures though...I ate it! Oopsie, strawberry (with splenda), whipped cream, oopsie, strawberry, whipped cream. Yowza! I don't know if you are entertaining the idea of Splenda lately, Cleo, but I put some cinnamon DaVinci's, vanilla DaVinci's, and a little granulated Splenda in the whipped cream and it was a FABULOUS complement to the berries.

love them

[General_Sline]

Am I the only person who cant find this recipe anywhere?

[CopperAnnette]

If you go to the very first post in this thread, there's a link.

[cleochatra]

Here is the updated link. An extensive Q&A is also there in the links to the left

AAAH thank you very much. That dead examiner link was killing me for the past 2 days i've been trying to make these things

[cleochatra]

OMG. That stupid blogger.

You know what happened? Blasted blogger kept assigning a tilde (~) with a numerical value. I had to keep going in and changing back to the tilde in HTML.

[theislandgirl]

Eh?

Sorry, Cleo, but there appears to be another problem..

When I click on:

Low-Carb 'Oopsie' Mania is Running Wild! (There are Shots for That)

at the bottom of the Oopsie updated link you provided (being nosy, me) absolutely nothing happens (and BTW, there's a little javascript something or other showing up in the status bar at the bottom of my browser, rather than a normal redirect/link).

Sigh.

[cleochatra]

I think that might be a Jimmy Blog thing? Is it?

I'm tempted to just delete recipe entries as they move, but at the same time, peoples' comments are meaningful and helpful.

[NJOkee Dokee]

Hi All-

I am on the medi weight loss program and not only is our carb intake restricted, but so is our fat intake, so as much as these recipes and ideas look yummy, I still cant have them.

If anybody has any LC/LF recipes or alterations of some that are shown here, I would certainly appreciate it. Seeing all this stuff really makes me want to switch to Atkins, I miss butter, milk, cheese, and basically anything with flavor!

I'm down 30 lbs in 8 weeks, but I cant do this much longer, it's too expensive and I'm starting to plateau and am only losing 1 or 2lbs a week. I can go to Weight Watchers for alot less money, eat real food and lose 2 lbs a week!

Anyway- Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Okee

I have no idea where the link is supposed to go, goodness , I only know you have a dead link javascript thingy on the bottom of your supple oopsie article that you linked earlier in this thread

Hey, you're the bloggy/columny one!

[cleochatra]

Hey, Jude! Thanks for specifying the dead link was at the column! I was looking for it at the blog.

[NJOkee Dokee]

Ok....I just made a batch, but I used FF cream cheese. If I calculated the calories correctly (I have no idea how to do this so I'm going with the obvious!) 3 oz of FF Cream Cheese is 90 calories, 2 eggs are 150, making a total of 240 calories per batch...divide by 6 rolls and I get 40 calories per roll. Sound right?

[cleochatra]

3 ounces of fatfree cream cheese is only 30 calories an ounce?

If that's the case, you're right on.

[NJOkee Dokee]

3 ounces of fatfree cream cheese is only 30 calories an ounce?

It's an 8 oz pkg, it says it has 8 servings at 30 calories per serving so I can presume that a serving is 1 oz.

I had one for dinner and was quite surprised how well it held up with a chicken cutlet on it. I almost forgot what it was like to eat a sandwhich! I am getting excited about all the possibilities out there!

As I said before, I am searching for LF/LC receipes because I am on Medi Weight Loss and I cant have all the creams and fats that Atkins dieters can have, so it's really hard to be creative.

Thanks so much for opening a new door for my diet, I was starting to get really bored!

Okee

[cleochatra]

Okee. Thanks for letting me know these worked for you! It's easy to cut the fats. south Beach friends use a lot of my recipes with great success. Let me know if there's ever any assistance you need in cutting stuff out in the recipes or if there's something you're missing!

[General_Sline]

first i'd like to thank you for the recipe...my first batch turned out ok I guess, considering i dont even know what a stiff peak is, and i know i definitely folded in too much too quickly I think. I ended up with more of a pancake batter which i'm guessing was wrong. However what came out of the oven tasted delicious and i found a use for it.

now off to research how to bake and what a stiff peak is!
