<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hP0_HZFYBK8/Xid6Vt_V-BI/AAAAAAAAAJY/Cu3EwswLq3AWkIwA8aZqqJGvdpJaVueagCEwYBhgL/s1600/Ham%2B2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1284" data-original-width="1387" height="296" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hP0_HZFYBK8/Xid6Vt_V-BI/AAAAAAAAAJY/Cu3EwswLq3AWkIwA8aZqqJGvdpJaVueagCEwYBhgL/s320/Ham%2B2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
Chicken, chicken salad, turkey, sausage & burgers have all been used. While the ham used is probably not the cleanest keto, it's a nice treat and variation. This is being shared as an example of my Keto replacement for a sandwich and chips. The Chichariones provide the much needed crunch. Also, you can make the coconut flour bread ahead of time giving it time to cool. This awesome Keto 90 Second Microwave Mug Bread is from: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uysDM_92iUo" target="_blank">Headbanger's Kitchen youtube channel</a>. Note the hole in the bread is because I didn't make sure all the air bubbles were out of it before I microwaved the batter.<br />
<br />
It's a very simple but filling meal.<br />
<br />
2 thin deli slices of ham<br />
4 slices of avocado - 1/4"thick<br />
4 slices of Coconut Flour Bread<br />
<br />
First, make the Coconut Flour Bread as follows:<br />
<br />
You will a Normal Coffee Mug, a small mixing bowl and a small whisk. I use a 24 oz sour cream container when I want to make a larger bun.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CR8htBkyOEA/Xid6WIs0TrI/AAAAAAAAAJg/xahMjPVdkLwyS7zqBHuNLsbKmM-GEjJyACEwYBhgL/s1600/Ham%2B3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1185" data-original-width="1600" height="236" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CR8htBkyOEA/Xid6WIs0TrI/AAAAAAAAAJg/xahMjPVdkLwyS7zqBHuNLsbKmM-GEjJyACEwYBhgL/s320/Ham%2B3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
After it has cooled, cut into four slices. This batch is a great example of what happens when an air bubble gets trapped in the batter and just pretend their bagels!<br />
<br />
Layer 2 slices of avocado on the bead with a sliced of ham stacked on top. Put on your favorite Keto sandwich spread on the top half and enjoy!<br />

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
This is a post on my Keto Lifestyle Journey. As of this posting, I have lost 21 pounds. I had to get creative with my meals and wanted to share them. Being a native from the Philadelphia area, there is nothing better than a really good cheesesteak on an Amoroso roll. So here is my Keto solution...enjoy!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zRiTmmQh4KM/Xid2edHTXfI/AAAAAAAAAJA/Svrkz6Cz9WQlBrmH5BnsoDzhqTw6rU3dQCLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1237" data-original-width="1600" height="247" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zRiTmmQh4KM/Xid2edHTXfI/AAAAAAAAAJA/Svrkz6Cz9WQlBrmH5BnsoDzhqTw6rU3dQCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/5.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
First, saute the onions, peppers and mushrooms.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-AKEW2kqgXE8/XidzK3AfYbI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/7tkHD7c9T80-G0o6gLYWP7ulMHQCWWZxgCLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="908" data-original-width="1600" height="181" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-AKEW2kqgXE8/XidzK3AfYbI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/7tkHD7c9T80-G0o6gLYWP7ulMHQCWWZxgCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
Next Prep the Steak Meat - if you can't find Chip Steak the equivalent would be the Steak-umm brand. Give it a chop before frying and I cooked them in a separate pan.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3AS8rTXYyqc/Xid0izGYnAI/AAAAAAAAAIs/mnAW7sED9ZEjXbWpnTFpspDKUfUwPwJ0gCLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="877" data-original-width="1600" height="175" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3AS8rTXYyqc/Xid0izGYnAI/AAAAAAAAAIs/mnAW7sED9ZEjXbWpnTFpspDKUfUwPwJ0gCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zB5XJYaFP7I/Xid0jJ1XcGI/AAAAAAAAAIw/TSBlsHa6Y7UGTCLOURSoLd80ndiOWSjPwCLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="863" data-original-width="1600" height="172" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zB5XJYaFP7I/Xid0jJ1XcGI/AAAAAAAAAIw/TSBlsHa6Y7UGTCLOURSoLd80ndiOWSjPwCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/4.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Last, Cook the Steak and top with your favorite cheese, prep your salad and then top with the onion, pepper & mushroom. Add you're favorite keto dressing. Ranch works well with this salad. Enjoy!!<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>The Recipe</b></span></div>
<br />
4 boneless Pork Tenderloins - approx. 1-1/2" Thick<br />
12 slices of Bacon<br />
Ground Black Pepper<br />
<br />
Pat pork loins dry and season on all sides with pepper to taste. (The black ground pepper works well with the Bacon!)<br />
<br />
Wrap each loin in 3 slices of Bacon. Season if desired and place in slow cooker.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/--ajM3tTKRVM/WKOldGqQfnI/AAAAAAAAAFY/lh_gl1fOVX0IsSAOSUhdvFRT2SogGBLcwCLcB/s1600/Bacon%2BWrapped%2BPork%2B2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/--ajM3tTKRVM/WKOldGqQfnI/AAAAAAAAAFY/lh_gl1fOVX0IsSAOSUhdvFRT2SogGBLcwCLcB/s320/Bacon%2BWrapped%2BPork%2B2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Do Not Add Any Liquid. You will be amazed at how much juice will be produced.<br />
<br />
Cook for approx. 6 hours on High.<br />
<br />
Transfer Pork to a baking sheet and broil turning each side so the bacon becomes nice and crisp.<br />
<br />
Enjoy!!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Notes: This recipe works well with thick cuts of pork including the Picnic/Butt cuts. Season to your taste. Did not season pork with salt due to saltiness of bacon.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>The Recipe</b></span></div>
<br />
2 oz Angel Hair Pasta in 1/2"-1" pieces<br />
1 cup Long Grain Rice<br />
1 tsp Italian Seasoning<br />
1/8 tsp Garlic Powder<br />
1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper <br />
4 Chicken Bouillon cubes<br />
2-1/2 cups Water<br />
3 Tbsp butter<br />
<br />
Microwave water and bouillon cubes for one minute and stir to dissolve.<br />
<br />
Melt butter in non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add pasta and rice and cooking and stirring until the pasta becomes golden. (Do not let it burn!)<br />
<br />
Mix in the garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Gently add water and stir.<br />
<br />
Bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer. Cover and cook for about 15 minutes.<br />
<br />
-----------------<br />
<br />
Just a quick and easy recipe for making a great side dish. Don't want it spicy, eliminate the cayenne pepper.<br />
<br />
It's best to let it sit for about 10 minutes after cooking to let it completely absorb all the water.<br />
<br />
Enjoy!<br />

<b></b><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tjub-F_Bt68/WKOIa-utnpI/AAAAAAAAAEw/qdMSDy-M3RsWWpb0VQvRd2je1p8ORfEWQCLcB/s1600/Baked%2BDrumsticks%2B1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="112" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tjub-F_Bt68/WKOIa-utnpI/AAAAAAAAAEw/qdMSDy-M3RsWWpb0VQvRd2je1p8ORfEWQCLcB/s200/Baked%2BDrumsticks%2B1.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>The Recipe</b></span></div>
<br />
Preheat Oven to 300F degrees<br />
<br />
1-1/4 Tbsp Baking Powder<br />
3/4 tsp Salt<br />
1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper (Optional)<br />
<br />
Mix ingredients in a large mixing bowl, then coat the skin of each drumstick.<br />
<br />
Arrange on a raised rack over a sheet pan. This will allow air to circulate to obtain a crispier skin.<br />
<br />
Bake for 30 minutes then raise oven temperature to 425F degrees, bake for an additional 45-60 mins.<br />
<br />
About 50 mins in the average, keep an eye on them and get them as crispy as you like.<br />
<br />
<br />
This is a very simple and easy way to bake drumsticks with a crispier skin, this also works very well for wings. The baking powder helps to dry out the skin (don't bread the exposed meat if you can). Adding the Cayenne Pepper is optional to make them spicy and provide some heat.<br />
<br />
<br />
------------------------<br />
<br />
For WINGS:
Since chicken wings are covered completely in skin, you can toss them in the bowl all together at once to coat them. It's best if you snip the tips off the wings. After baking, toss wings in a bowl with your favorite Wing Sauce. Quite frankly, they are awesome as is and never last to be sauced nor to get a picture taken. My Apologies! Enjoy!<br />

After I read the Skillet Tamale recipe, I knew it wasn't for me but I liked that it was topped and baked with cornbread.

I also added more of slightly heaping 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder, because I wasn't adding in the Tabasco. Additionally I added a tad more garlic & brown sugar. Just make sure the sloppy joes aren't too dry as you'll want some good moisture to go with the cornbread.<br /><br />The Cornbread: I've made tons of cornbread from scratch and quite frankly, I still find myself going back to the Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix. It's cheap, fast and I love the flavor as it's a sweeter mix and goes well with the robust sloppy joe's.<br /><br />The recipe is simple.<br /><br />1) Make your favorite sloppy joes.<br />2) Put the hot sloppy joe mixture into a 9x9 baking pan<br />3) Make your favorite cornbread mix.<br /> (A box of Jiffy Cornbread Mix works well).<br />4) Bake according to cornbread directions<br /> (usually takes a little less time so watch it carefully)<br />5) Enjoy!<br /></div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HAebgpvnTn4/Sqag-zOm5BI/AAAAAAAAAC8/HBSg5x9xpto/s1600-h/Sloppy_Joe-09.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HAebgpvnTn4/Sqag-zOm5BI/AAAAAAAAAC8/HBSg5x9xpto/s200/Sloppy_Joe-09.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379163805704446994" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HAebgpvnTn4/SqahbU1E2fI/AAAAAAAAADE/FEeW4cVzaew/s1600-h/Sloppy_Joe-12.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HAebgpvnTn4/SqahbU1E2fI/AAAAAAAAADE/FEeW4cVzaew/s200/Sloppy_Joe-12.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379164295760501234" border="0" /></a><br />It turned out AWESOME!

My mother made this dish a lot in the summer while growing up and it's one of the few vegtables dishes that Mark actually loves. I'm not really sure how it's spelled, so I spelled it like it's sounds.<br /><br />It's great to make when the bounty of tomatoes, zucchini and squashes are at their peak. It's definitly versatile allowing for many variations. It's an excellent side dish. It goes great over rice and with pasta.<br /><br />Get the frying pan going over med-high heat. Add 2-4 tablespoons of your favorite oil. Start with the onions, then zucchini/squash and finally the tomatoes. As you cut them, put them directly into the hot frying pan and let them start cooking in the oil. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Spitzad%202.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; CURSOR: pointer" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/200/Spitzad%202.jpg" border="0" /></a>After vegetables are done, chop up herbs to your liking and add to vegetables reserving some for the end. Add salt and pepper to your taste cover and stir every 15 minutes or so. Keep it covered, allowing some steam to escape, but let it retain some of it's juices, especially when serving it over rice. After about 40 minutes or until veggies are cooked, remove from heat and sprinkle with cheese reserving about tablespoons. Mix gently and top off with reserve cheese. The basic recipe consists of:<br /><br />1 med Zucchini sliced into 1" pieces<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Spitzad%203.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; CURSOR: pointer" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/200/Spitzad%203.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />1 med Yellow Squash<br />- sliced into 1" pieces<br />1 med-large onion cut in 1/2<br />- cut into 1/2" verticle slices<br />3 cups of tomatoes<br />- quartered<br />4 tbsp Fresh Basil chopped<br />3 tbsp Fresh Italian Parsley chopped<br />1 tbsp italian seasoning (dried)<br />1 cup of grated cheese, parm. reggiano, locatelli, etc all work well.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Spitzad%20Cooking%201.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; CURSOR: pointer" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/200/Spitzad%20Cooking%201.jpg" border="0" /></a>Use any combination of herbs you want.

It also refrigerates very well and never tried freezing it. For it's simplicity, you gain something that is very healthy and tasteful.

After watching the episode (and specifically this segment) a second time, I was off to the store to gather up the ingredients. Even though I love lasagna, it can be quite the time consuming process to put together! (Nothing still beats a lasagna layered with homemade pasta sheets!) I used the Barilla lasagna sheets but they used regular lasagna noodles in the show.<br /><br />I think Mark will agree with me, this dish came out absolutley delicious! It made so much that I was even able to freeze some for a future meals! The recipe is available on the <a href="http://www.americastestkitchen.com" target="new">America's Test Kitchen website</a>. If you are looking for a fairly quick way to make a very tasty lasagna, I highly recommend this recipe! Finire di mangiare!

These have the taste I remember but someone must have found some of those green fruits they use in Fruitcake at Christmas time and thought that they would be good mix in with these. (They're not, they ruined it and I picked them out).<br /><br />When researching the significance of this pastry which always appeared around this time of year when I was a child, the book of <span style="font-style: italic;">Dates and Meanings of Religious & Other Festivals</span>, hot cross buns:<br /><blockquote>"used to be kept specially for Good Friday with the symbolism of the cross, although it is thought that they originated in pagan times with the bun representing the moon and its four quarters."</blockquote><a href="from:" html="">Helfer Pastries</a> online states: <p></p><blockquote>Hot Cross Buns are made with sweet, yeast-raised dough, raisins, currants, cinnamon and other spices. They are finished with roll icing in the shape of a cross, to remind us of the death of Jesus and the victory of His Resurrection!</blockquote>Hot Cross Buns are mainly associated with Good Friday than Easter Sunday.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art1745.asp">Bella Online</a> had the following to say about their pagan origins:<br /><br /><blockquote>Their origins lie in pagan traditions of ancient cultures, with the cross representing the four quarters of the moon. During early missionary efforts, the Christian church adopted the buns and re-interpreted the icing cross. In 1361, a monk named Father Thomas Rockcliffe began a tradition of giving Hot Cross Buns to the poor of St Albans on Good Friday.</blockquote><blockquote>In years that followed, many customs, traditions, superstitions, and claims of healing and protection from evil and were associated with the buns. In the 16th century, Roman Catholicism was banned in England, but the popularity of Hot Cross buns continued. Queen Elizabeth I passed a law banning the consumption of Hot Cross Buns except during festivals such as Easter, Christmas and funerals.</blockquote><br /><br />HAPPY EASTER!Tony's Food Chronicleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11226005007748514745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14819324.post-1142685453721281432006-03-18T07:31:00.001-05:002010-03-26T10:48:02.858-05:00FondueA Recent Book Purchase ...<br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Fondue3.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/320/Fondue3.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br />... and the Carmel Sauce from Williams-Sonoma was excellent on Valentine's Day when warmed and served with sliced apple and pound cake!Tony's Food Chronicleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11226005007748514745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14819324.post-1139804729014096342006-02-12T23:20:00.001-05:002010-03-26T11:11:20.934-05:00Cheese Me!My staple of cheeses that I like to keep on hand!<br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Current_Cheese1.0.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center;" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/400/Current_Cheese1.jpg" border="0" /></a>Tony's Food Chronicleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11226005007748514745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14819324.post-1139461068884358362006-02-08T23:45:00.000-05:002007-03-04T00:41:15.759-05:00A Favorite Winter Dinner<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Apple_Sausage1.0.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; CURSOR: pointer" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/320/Apple_Sausage1.jpg" border="0" /></a><em><strong>Sweet Potatoes, Apples & Onions with Chicken-Apple Sausage</strong></em><br /><br />This was so good, I thought I'd share!

Traditionally, Stromboli is made with thin slice pepperoni strips and mozzarella cheese. This Sunday the theme is Black Forest Ham and Monterey Jack Cheese.<br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Stromboli2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; float: right;" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/200/Stromboli2.jpg" border="0" /></a>The weather here in Tampa this first weekend in December was absolutely beautiful with 75+ degree sunny days and with working 45+ hours a week, finding quality shortcuts in the kitchen is what I strive very hard to do. I have to confess that I did purchase frozen bread dough which I have found to be a very viable replacement for the homemade version and works wonderfully for stromboli's!<br /><br />After a good refrigerator thaw and a good rise, I flour the board and give the dough a good stretching. I even use a rolling pin make it even. I then begin with a thin <a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Stromboli3.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; float: left;" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/200/Stromboli3.jpg" border="0" /></a>layer of marinara, then ham and finally the cheese. I leave a margin of empty dough opposite from the side I start rolling. After it's rolled, I pinch the seams closed and seal up the ends. It's then placed seamed side down seam side down on a greased backing pan. <a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Stromboli4.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; float: right;" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/200/Stromboli4.jpg" border="0" /></a>Be sure put a few steam vents slits on the top. It's then baked for about 25-30 minutes in a well pre-heated 375 degree oven until golden brown. Don't be upset if it leaks a little. I find that that it adds to the character and taste of the stromboli.<br /><br />The variations you can use for the ingredients are as many as the your imagination and taste buds can conjure.Tony's Food Chronicleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11226005007748514745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14819324.post-1131082416476360372005-11-05T11:52:00.000-05:002020-01-26T00:33:13.050-05:00Smothered Pork Chops - Picante Style Keto Friendly<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Smothered_Pork1.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; CURSOR: pointer" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/320/Smothered_Pork1.jpg" border="0" /></a>After buying some very nice butterflied boneless pork chops, to just season and throw them into the oven just wasn't going to happen. So I opened the refrigerator, started pulling stuff out and the following was the end result. This dish was so good, it has become a favorite at the dinner table. And personally, I think it's very easy to make as it cooks and cleans up beautifully in my Le Creuset.<br /><br />The sauce that is left on the bottom is so delicious that I will freeze it or use it for something else. I had made roasted chicken the next night and we used it to pour over the rice.<br /><br />I was going to take the pork out of the pot to plate them and snap some pictures. However, I decided to just snap the picture as they were. This shows you exactly what they looked like when I took them off the stove. I usually serve this with plain white rice and a vegetable. It would also work well with potatoes.<br /><br />Some Notes on the Recipe:<br /><br />Pork - If I need to sear one at a time, I reserve them on a plate to trap any of the flavorful juices that escape. Boneless chicken breast work well too.<br /><br />Oil - I use a blend of Olive/Canola oil.<br /><br />Wine - You can certainly use red wine in a pinch. The white I use is generally on the dryer side and don't hesitate to use less if desired. You can certainly substitute chicken or beef stock.<br /><br />Salsa - I like using Pace Picante Sauce because it is nice and chunky. Picante means hot in Spanish but we use the mild version. I also like using Cha chi's Mango Salsa. Using a "sweeter" salsa/picante sauce is a preferential taste, which I think adds another layer of flavor to this dish. You can substitute sugar for the Splenda.<br /><br />Here's the recipe:<br /><br />Smothered Pork Chops - Picante Style<br />Servings: 2<br /><br />2 Boneless Pork chops<br />2 Tbsp Cooking oil, more if needed<br />2/3 Cup White Wine<br />1 1/2 Cups Pace Picante<br />2 Packs of Splenda<br /><br />Place salsa in small mixing bowl, add splenda. Mix well and set aside.<br />Heat oil over medium-high heat. Quickly sear/brown pork chops on both sides, one at a time if necessary. Remove from pot.<br /><br />Being very careful as this will splatter, slowly pour wine into the pot and deglaze. Allow alcohol to evaporate. Place pork chops back into pot including any juices that escaped. They may overlap if needed.<br /><br />Spoon all the salsa/picante sauce over chops. Reduce heat to a gentle simmer and cover loosley. Cook 20 minutes, less if pork is thinner, longer if thicker.<br /><br />Serve Immediately.Tony's Food Chronicleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11226005007748514745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14819324.post-1130424381104868502005-10-27T10:16:00.001-05:002010-03-26T11:19:47.614-05:00Spinach Dip...

On a recent show entitled: DVD Night - episode DS101, they made a wonderful Spinach, Artichoke and Bacon Dip.<br /><br />We were invited to play cards that upcoming weekend and I thought what a perfect excuse, like I needed one, to give this a try. Personally, I loved it. Because it contains artichoke hearts, I think some people shyed away from it. But the lemon zest does give it a nice fresh flavor. However, next time I think I will use a little less as it can be so strong.<br /><br />I doubled the recipe as I wanted some left over since it is very low-carb! Although <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Spinach_Dip_3.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/200/Spinach_Dip_3.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>it pairs very well with a good dipping chip, cracker and even torn bread, I wanted to keep within the low-carb range and took one of my carb chopper tortillia's and made it into a wrap. I like to cut them into slices, as shown in the picture on the right. It makes them easier to eat and it also makes a great appeitzer for guests.<br /><br />And like any good dip, it thought it got better after 2 days in the refrigerator.<br /><br />There recipe follows, and here is <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,1977,FOOD_9936_32047,00.html" target="new">the link</a> which also contains a recipe for crispy pitas, which for some reason they didn't do in the show.

I made these last weekend and they were so delicious. The recipe comes from Ina Garten, The Barefoot Contessa on the Food Network, another one of my TIVO favorites. My only advice is not to be tempted to cut them early as they will totally fall apart. (Take it from experience). I let them cool about 3 hours and then I put them in refrigerator. They condense the longer you let them sit and cool. Oh, and I use 1 1/3 cups of sugar. You can probably get away with using even less or substituting some splenda. Enjoy!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_31589,00.html">Click Here for the link to the recipe</a>:<br /><br />1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature<br />1 1/2 cups sugar<br />1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract<br />2 extra-large eggs, at room temperature<br />2 cups (18 ounces) creamy peanut butter (recommended: Skippy)<br />3 cups all-purpose flour<br />1 teaspoon baking powder<br />1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt<br />1 1/2 cups (18 ounces) raspberry jam or other jam<br />2/3 cups salted peanuts, coarsely chopped<br /><br />Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.<br /><br />Grease a 9 by 13 by 2-inch cake pan. Line it with parchment paper, then grease and flour the pan.<br /><br />In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed until light yellow, about 2 minutes. With the mixer on low speed, add the vanilla, eggs, and peanut butter and mix until all ingredients are combined.<br /><br />In a small bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the flour mixture to the peanut butter mixture. Mix just until combined.<br /><br />Spread 2/3 of the dough into the prepared cake pan and spread over the bottom with a knife or offset spatula. Spread the jam evenly over the dough. Drop small globs of the remaining dough evenly over the jam. Don't worry if all the jam isn't covered; it will spread in the oven. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and bake for 45 minutes, until golden brown. Cool and cut into squares.<br /><br />Yield: 24 bars.Tony's Food Chronicleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11226005007748514745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14819324.post-1128744346504140802005-10-11T02:27:00.000-05:002007-03-04T20:52:25.463-05:00Mini Low-Carb Pizza<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Low-Carb%20Pizza7.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/320/Low-Carb%20Pizza7.jpg" border="0" /></a><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">I thought I would share this recipe that uses low-carb wraps as your pizza dough. It's great with a salad or even as a snack.</span> There are several pictures at the end of this entry.<br /><br />Notes on the recipe:<br /><br />Once you start prepping, it's very easy to make a few of these at a time, I just use the regular oven instead of the toaster oven.<br /><br />Chopped fresh Basil and other fresh herbs work well if available.<br /><br /><strong>Rule of Thumb For This Recipe:</strong> Any ingredient that contains a lot of moisture will soak into the wrap causing it to become very soggy and limp.<br /><br />The picture shown above was made with cheddar and monterey jack cheeses.<br /><br /><br />Mini Low-Carb Pizza<br /><br />1 Low-Carb Tortilla<br />1/4 cup of grated cheese, mozzarella, cheddar and monterey jack work best.<br />1 plum/roma tomato sliced (Roasted Peppers work well too)<br /><br />First, bake/broil the tortilla wrap on a piece of aluminum foil as to remove a fair amount of the moisture until it starts to turn lightly brown. The ends will begin to curl up. My method is 5 mins. on one side and then I flip it and 5 mins. on the second side. If you skip this step, the pizza will turn out very soft and limp.<br /><br />While the wrap is baking, I slice the tomato, lay them out on paper towel and sprinkle them lightly with kosher salt to draw out excess water. This will prevent the pizza from becoming soggy.<br /><br />Next, if I grate the cheese(s) if necessary. Buying pre-shredded cheese saves time but it's not as fresh.<br /><br />When the wrap is finished baking, remove it from the oven and I spread the cheese on top and then the tomato slices, sprinkle it with any of the following: oregano, italian seasoning, garlic powder or fresh herbs. It then gets put it back in the oven for about 3-5 mins until the cheese is melted and the ends of the wrap start to turn golden brown.<br /><br />Remove from oven, let stand 1 minute and enjoy! I usually get the pizza cutter out and cut it into 8 slices.<br /><p>**PICTURES**<br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Low-Carb%20Pizza4.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px" alt="Sliced Roma Tomatoes" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/320/Low-Carb%20Pizza4.jpg" border="0" /></a> Tomatoes sliced, salted and on two paper towels. After they've sat for a few minutes, I take a third paper towel and press down on them from the top. It's amazing how much water tomatoes contain. I tend to use plum or roma tomatoes as they contain less water and are meatier. I leave them on top when I put them on the pizza as it lets the water evaporate instead of being trapped under the cheese.<br /></p><p><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Low-Carb%20Pizza3.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/320/Low-Carb%20Pizza3.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /></p><p><br />Monteray Jack and Chedder cheese freshly grated and ready to go! It's amazing how expensive cheese can be. I usually try and buy it whole and grate it myself. You just can't compare to it being freshly grated. I generally use a combination of either these two and/or mozzerella. I've even used regular American, Swiss, Asiago or Fontina. I've even grated parmesian reggiano or locatelli when I have them.<br /></p><p><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Low-Carb%20Pizza13.JPG"><img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/200/Low-Carb%20Pizza12.JPG" border="0" /></a><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Low-Carb%20Pizza23.JPG"><img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/200/Low-Carb%20Pizza22.JPG" border="0" /></a>In these next two pictures, the one on the left is before it was cooked and the one on the right, obviously is after.<br /></p><p><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/Carb%20Chopper%20Wraps.jpg" align="middle"><img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/200/Carb%20Chopper%20Wraps.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />These are my favorite wraps.

It's one of those magazines that I take the time to actually sit down to read AND enjoy.<br /><br />First and foremost... there are NO advertisements!! Can't say enough about that! Ok.. one more time... NO ADVERTISEMENTS!<br /><br />Christpher Kimball's editorial usually brings a warm smile to my face as he shares the current happenings of the season.<br /><br />The next couple of pages are filled with Notes From Readers and Quick Tips. Can I tell you how much I learn from these pages? Ok I will... the facts, tips, advice, experiences that are published are practical ideas that one can incorporate into every day kitchen life.<br /><br />The remaing pages are filled with recipes, recipe make-overs, improvements and tests, equipment testing results, step-by-step instructions as well techniques and "Cook's extra" which allows you to key in codes that are valid for a certain period of time. An expiration date is listed.<br /><br />A smile always appears on my face when it arrives in the mail. I know it's going to bring me together with a delicious cup of coffee or tea. Maybe I should do that more often... guess it's time to subscribe to it's sister magazine... <a href="http://www.cookscountry.com" target="new">Cook's Country</a>....Tony's Food Chronicleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11226005007748514745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14819324.post-1128625724121487732005-10-06T16:36:00.000-05:002007-03-04T00:43:41.458-05:00Flaxseed-Peanut Butter-Low Carb<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/1600/NaturallyMore-jar.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6404/1349/400/NaturallyMore-jar.jpg" border="0" /></a>While picking up a few items in Sam's Club yesterday, I came across a new product from The Peanut Snack Co.: <a href="http://www.peanutsnack.com/" target="new">Naturally More</a>; What Peanut Butter Should Be. As I picked up the jar and started reading the label, a very nice employee of Sam's asked me if I would like to try a sample. It was delicious. Great flavor and I loved the texture. I was sold!<br /><br />What had initially caught my eye that it is a "natural" peanut butter. Since we've moved to Tampa I have been unable to find Crazy Richard's Peanut Butter which only ingredient is Peanuts. There are similar products out on the market, but the texture and taste just isn't the same. I do have a jar of "low-carb" peanut butter that serves in a pinch, but it isn't my favorite.<br /><br />The second item that grabbed my attention is that it is fortified with Flaxseed and Flaxseed oil.<br /><br />This is the first product on the market that I've seen, without going into a health food store, that contains Flaxseed! Three Cheers to The Peanut Snack Company for this wonderful and healthy product.<br /><br />It came in two-pack of one pound jars each and it cost $4.64, which I thought was a great price!<br /><br />Here's the breakdown and check their <a href="http://www.peanutsnack.com">website</a> out for additional information:<br /><br />Serving Size: about 2 tbsp (35g/1.23oz)<br />Serving Per container: about 13<br />Calories: 169<br />Fat Calories: 98<br />Total Fat: 11 G 19%<br />Sat.

I purchased it because it is low in carbs. Check out my entry on Low Carb Pizza Dough.<br /><br />From <a href="http://www.berkeleywellness.com/html/ds/dsFlaxseed.php" target="new">UC Berkley Wellness Center / Wellness Guide to Dietary Supplements</a><br /><br />Claims, Benefits: Prevents heart disease and cancer.<br /><br /><blockquote><p>Bottom Line: Flaxseed oil is heart-healthy because it contains alpha-linolenic acid. Flaxseed itself (ground or whole) also contains lignans, which may have antioxidant actions and may help protect against certain cancers, though this is<br />far from certain. Skip flaxseed supplements, though.</p></blockquote><br />The following comes from <a href="http://www.shirleys-wellness-cafe.com/flaxoil.htm" target="new">Shirley's Wellness Cafe</a>:<br /><br /><blockquote>"The human body cannot function properly without two polyunsaturated fats - linoleic and alpha-linoleic acid. These fatty acids, which are found in Flaxseed Oil are truly to normal cell structure and body function." <p></p><br /></blockquote>Flax Council of Canada -<br /><blockquote><p>Both brown and golden flax seeds have plenty of lignans and dietary fibre, and both contain more than 50 per cent alpha-linolenic acid. This is an omega-3 fat which offers you health and heart fitness. </p><blockquote></blockquote><br /><a href="http://www.kookiekutter.ca/">Kookie Kutter</a><br /><br /><blockquote>Its high content of alpha linolenic acids has made the ancient flax seed become our modern miracle food. Alpha linolenic acid is a type of omega 3 fatty acid, similar to those found in fish such as salmon. Benefits of flax seed as shown in many studies include lowering total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol (the Bad cholesterol) levels. Other benefits show that flax seed may also help lower blood triglyceride (Also Read: How to lower Triglycerides?) and blood pressure. It may also keep platelets from becoming sticky therefore reducing the chance of a heart attack.</blockquote><br /><br /></blockquote>Tony's Food Chronicleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11226005007748514745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14819324.post-1127012567105640982005-09-17T21:51:00.001-05:002010-03-26T11:32:35.845-05:00Pumpkin Streusel MuffinsI made these last fall and found them to be quite tasty!!
