Here are that new Single Serve FP Pancakes Using Biscuit Mix (low carb/low fat)! And yes, it’s another recipe using the THM Friendly Low Carb Biscuit Mix. This recipe follows pretty close behind the low carb 3 Ingredient Waffles Using Low Carb Biscuit Mix but the recipes are completely different. Before going any further though I’d like to stop and thank THM Coach Tanya Mackey with Renewed Health For Life for… Continue Reading
Make Your Own Healthy Seasonings
A better name for this post would probably be The Always Incomplete Make Your Own Healthy Seasonings…because I definitely intend to keep adding to this one seasonally or whenever the opportunity and need arises. 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. There are many reasons to make your own… Continue Reading
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
Savory Sprouted Wheat Cottage Bread
This Savory Sprouted Wheat Cottage Bread is as light, fluffy, moist and tender as any I’ve ever eaten and it’s totally on plan for THM as an E bread. This recipe, as well as the rest of my blog, is in no way egg-free, dairy-free, or gluten-free. I used all of these ingredients in this bread as dough conditioners and they work very well to create a loaf of bread that is… Continue Reading
Southern Barbeque Sauce
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
Easy Fat Free Cream Cheese
Have you tried the fat free cheese available in the stores and thought they tasted “funny”? Then looked at the ingredient list and discovered why?! I sure have! In order to have the cream style yogurt cheese that I love in a fat free version that doesn’t taste like….(hard to describe)… I had to revert to my “Farm Fresh Tess” ways and make my own. So here you have… Continue Reading
Fresh Salsa
Fresh Salsa that’s ready when you need it, plus it’s low fat and low carb! Once you chop up a few veggies for pico de gallo and season it to perfection you are only one step away from this fantastic raw veggie salsa that I have made for 17 years. Your family, friends and taste buds will thank you! Really, the best thing about having this pico around is… Continue Reading
Frosted Strawberry Limeade (Sugar Free, S or FP)
Here’s the long promised blog post for my Frosted Strawberry Limeade Smoothie! It is a spin off of my original creation from a couple of summers ago which I called Lemonade Frosty a great tasting fuel pull smoothie that was so sweet and creamy you’d never suspect it of being any part of a weight loss strategy! I am a THM smoothie lover and I really haven’t ever had one… Continue Reading
Vegetable Beef Soup (Low fat, E)
Vegetable Beef Soup Low fat E is such a comfort on a cold winter’s day. But to be honest, I’ve been known to make it from fresh veggies and think of it as a type of spring tonic. Then about summer, I get nostalgic at least once a summer and make it then because it’s hard to wait till fall… I converted this recipe for Vegetable Beef Soup from a… Continue Reading
Ranch Salad Dressing
My favorite Ranch Salad Dressing is now low carb, THM S! I took this dressing over to an injured friend the other day and she said: “This stuff is so good we should make it and sell it!” We had a good laugh thinking about what fun that would be; then I told her that I planned on offering it on my blog since it is even better… Continue Reading
