Consider yourself warned . . . ! What follows is “Low-Carb Food PORN.” I’m not completely sure if it is just that these are catching my eye, or if my favorite Low-Carb recipe goddesses are just posting from the recipe snack bar today, but WOW! Here is a second post today about a wonderful low-carb, high fat snack. Thank you Carolyn Ketchum. This one has a little more carbohydrate in it ~ 6g per serving, so you have be a bit cautious on how many you consume but, just look . . .
Carolyn posted the recipe here at www.AllDayIDreamAboutFood.com. Thanks, Carolyn! I can’t wait to try these.
We just got a sample pack of Lily’s Chocolate. This is a Stevia and erythritol sweetened chocolate that has no aftertaste and doesn’t cause the stomach upset that many experience with chicory root based products. I am always looking for good low carbohydrate alternatives for snacks, as rescue foods, or to assist in baking.
My wife found this chocolate in a recipe that Carolyn Ketchum had posted on her website, All Day I Dream About Food. It is quite tastey!! Thanks, Caroyln!! (By the way, I dream about food all day long, too.)
I scanned a copy of the wrapper for the Salted Almond & Milk Flavor. I have to admit, I ate half the bar. It was that good!!
For those looking for an alternative chocolate for a snack or to use in a recipe, this may be the answer. You can find their whole line of chocolates here.
I love chocolate chip cookies! However, over the last seven years, as I have followed a low carbohydrate diet I have not been able to indulge my chocolate chip cookie craving — until recently.
My gorgeous and very ingeniousness wife has perfected her chocolate chip cookie recipe and – Oh, WOW . . .are they good.
Warm, tasty chocolate chip cookies that are actually good for you, served up by a beautiful blond in a very cute apron. . . I think this is what heaven is like.
