Easy Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs have become an almost weekly ritual in my kitchen now. Now I boil them up by the dozen and keep them in a plastic baggy in the fridge so tossing one into the tuna, slicing a couple into a salad or just making egg salad is a cinch anytime. Slipping the shells off of perfectly hard boiled eggs with no mess or loss of… Continue Reading

I’m also including info on which sweeteners each recipe can replace… Continue Reading
Plumping Cranberries
When I first learned about Plumping Cranberries THM-FP, Low carb/Low fat it was a game-changer for me. Cranberries in their natural state are fairly unappealing in my opinion but plump and sweet they’re like…real fruit. Updating this post from Nov. 16, 2015, after moving it over from my old blog in 2014. Why not bring out the best in cranberries this season? This nutritional powerhouse is just waiting for us to… Continue Reading

Seven Minute Low Carb Condensed Milk THM S
Seven Minute Low Carb Condensed Milk THM S is just what it sounds like…a total game changer! One of the first recipes that I made when I went sugar-free (2014) was a coconut sweetened condensed milk that I found on Pinterest.

At some point, some of these may get their own post but I can still keep this link operational for the older posts that I’ll be referencing over here.

Texas Original Seasoning Rub for Beef
I heartily believe that the best seasonings enhance natural flavors, not cover them up. But they should go even further than that and actually promote health. This Texas Original Seasoning Rub for Beef has taken a while to post as I wanted to make sure that it would still deliver its full flavor on different cuts of meat and yet be fortified with health-promoting seasonings and herbs and it… Continue Reading

I have been gratified, but never… Continue Reading

Most East Texas cooks have their own idea of a favorite Southern Barbeque Sauce THM S, Low Carb, Low Fat and this is mine! Saucy, spicy and tangy, but mildly sweet this barbecue sauce is now low carb with no added sugar and of course, no flavor sacrifice whatsoever! If you are comparing it to a store bought bbq sauce this sauce would be closer to Stubb’s than… Continue Reading
