Make Your Own Healthy Seasonings

in Ingredient, Low Carb, Low Fat, Seasonings

This post may contain affiliate links. Please see our disclosure for more information.

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

Low Carb Personal Pan Pizza Crusts

This post may contain affiliate links. Please see our disclosure for more information.

I stumbled upon this idea for Low Carb Personal Pan Pizza Crusts and what a nice surprise.  I had seen a recipe somewhere that said you could make a type of focaccia bread using Bisquick so I saved it and started trying to get it to work and found that it just needed a little mozzarella cheese to firm it up and a little cottage cheese for moisture and better… 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

Here it is, The THM Bloggers Fiesta Recipes 2017  edition and I couldn’t be more excited to share this one!  I mentioned to my blogging buddies a couple of months ago that I was planning to post a collection of new recipes in April.  We already had a great lineup of South of the border style recipes, but kicked it into high gear since then to get lots of incredibly… Continue Reading

Dulce de Leche Spiced Mug Cake

in Gluten Free Mug Cakes, Low Carb, Low Carb Desserts, Low Carb Mexican Food, Low Carb Single Serve Mug Cakes, Sugar Free

This post may contain affiliate links. Please see our disclosure for more information.

Sugar-Free Dulce de Leche Spiced Mug Cake is a quick-fix microwave cake with a real caramel frosting that can be enjoyed anytime.  Up until a short while ago, a recipe of this type seemed so far out of reach to me, because first of all who wants to spend 20 minutes making a tiny caramel sauce for a single serve mug cake since, from my experience, the stove-top cooked caramel will… Continue Reading

Low Carb Spinach Bacon Quiche

This post may contain affiliate links. Please see our disclosure for more information.

This Low Carb Spinach Bacon Quiche THM-S, Low Carb belongs to a class of pies made popular in the ’80s using the Bisquick brand biscuit mix.   They were called “Impossible Pies” and could be either sweet or savory, but what separated them from the norm was that they made their own crust.   In the case of this quiche, there is a double crust.  The bacon pieces and cheese shreds at the… Continue Reading

This Sugar Free Italian Cream Cupcakes THM S, Low Carb These truly reminds me of my mom’s delightful Italian Cream Cake that we all enjoyed at so many special occasions. There are two types of desserts that I love, brownies and cupcakes! I am so incredibly picky about both that I have tried many variations, but haven’t posted either up until now. Getting favorite recipes down to a certain level… Continue Reading

Easy Breezy Strawberry Syrup THM-FP, Low-Carb, Low-Fat This is an incredibly flavorful, sliced berry syrup/sauce that I’ve been making in one form or another since starting this eating plan.   I figured out pretty quickly that I needed refreshing fruit syrup that I could basically eat in any setting, although strawberries do contain a few carbs, this syrup satisfies the sweet tooth when combined with a protein source like this… Continue Reading

Sugar-Free Strawberry Cream Cheese Pie THM S, Low Carb has really replaced one of our most beloved recipes.   I’m so excited to finally be publishing and sharing this re-creation of the family classic cherry cream cheese pie. Thankfully, this recipe will work in its place like a charm! This recipe calls for a small amount of gelatin to give it a perfect texture. I’ve used Now BEEF gelatin only. Reports… Continue Reading

Sugar Free Chocolate Candy Assortment

This post may contain affiliate links. Please see our disclosure for more information.

I’m calling these my Sugar Free Chocolate Candy Assortment THM-S, low carb, and they taste anything but sugar-free and are out just in time for Valentines! I’m not dark chocolates biggest fan so I lighten up all my chocolate recipes and although this one is dairy free it is no exception. In this case I used extra cocoa butter (optional) to take the edge off the dark flavor of Lily’s… Continue Reading
