Satisfying Breakfast Shake
This shake is designed to get you going (with coffee, but you can use decaf) and keep you going through the morning (with the medium-chain fatty acids in the coconut milk).

Flax Meal Peanut Butter Cereal
This yummy hot cereal is full of fiber, and you can make it right in your cereal bowl.

TVP "Oatmeal"
You won't believe how close to oatmeal this is!

Joe's Special, Laura Style
Every breakfast place in the San Fransisco area seems to have their version of this local classic. Here's mine.

Easy Flax Breakfast Pudding
This "pudding" can be put together in the microwave in 3-4 minutes. You can add berries or other "mix-ins" - I have lots of suggestions. The flax gives it lots of fiber and good fat, plus a nice nutty flavor.

Blueberry Almond Breakfast Pudding
This easy, healthy, low carb breakfast pudding can be made with any berries or other addtions as listed. Make it in the microwave in under 5 minutes.

Bacon and Egg Casserole Recipe
I was looking for a way to achieve the "puffiness" of egg casseroles made with bread (Italians call them strata), and I found that including almond meal achieves a lot of the puffiness without the starch - but it works fine without it, too.

Denver Casserole
This is like a large Denver (or "Western") omelet, and is great as a main dish for dinner or brunch. Leftovers make a nice quick breakfast.

Pizza Frittata
This frittata can be for any meal. I like to make it for dinner and eat the leftovers for breakfast or lunch.

Hot Pumpkin "Cereal"
Recipe for low carb pumpkin hot "cereal".

Crustless Smoked Salmon, Leek, and Mushroom Quiche
This crustless quiche is easy to make, and is great for any meal. The smoked salmon lends a touch of elegance.

Easy Eggs Florentine
You can make this in a few minutes for any meal.

Terri's Tofu Scramble
Terri's vegan low carb tofu scramble.

My personal fave


butterfly 1/2 of a boneless, skinless chicken breast
sprinkle the inside with some garlic salt
put in about 2TBLS of chopped fire roasted green chili's, and 2 tbls of sharp cheddar cheese. Roll up, secure with toothpick, bake at 350F for about 20 minutes or so.

serve with big green salad!

:Drool: I'll have to try that

I just made really yummy pork chops. First saute 2 cloves of garlic in olive oil for 1 min, add salt, pepper, roasted red peppers (chopped) and 10oz of frozen spinach thawed & drained. cook until liquid evaporates & is warmed through. Take off heat & add lemon juice & feta.

Cut a slit in the side of the chop to make a pocket. Fill w/mixture & put on a roasting pan.

Brush w/ dijon mustard, lemon juice, oregano & garlic mixed together in a bowl. Roast under broiler

For store bought chops - 6 min one side 2-3 the other. I made my own chops about 1 inch thick & they took 8 minutes per side in an electric oven

So yummy
