I was going to prepare a stromboli sandwich for lunch today but discovered I was out of provolone cheese. Only white cheeses I had: mozzarella and pepper jack. I decided to just go with just pepper jack to see what that would be like. Turned out to be very good indeed. I just did mine [...]

This sure was a pleasant surprise this morning! I had one of my hotdog buns left and didn’t feel like having eggs and sausage today, so I dreamed up this tasty treat. Because I’m trying to increase my breakfast protein intake, I used two sausage patties on this, but one would be adequate and is [...]

There’s a little Middle Eastern deli and grocery named The Phoenicia on Westheimer in Houston. They make the most wonderful Shawarma Spice Blend and consequently the most wonderful chicken shawarma sandwich with it I have ever eaten anywhere. You Houstonians who haven’t tried it yet are really missing out on one of Houston’s wonderful taste [...]
Grilled Cheese Sandwich

This traditional sandwich EVERYONE already knows how to make. But sadly most low-carb breads don’t grill/toast so nicely. This bread I’ve come up with for grilling is suitable for other sandwiches as well. It grills up a little crisper than any others I’ve tried to date. Any microwaveable square container, preferably glass, will do nicely [...]
Bacon Turkey Phillie Wrap

Back in my pre-Atkins days, this was enjoyed on slices of crusty bakery French bread. But I find it’s just as good eaten rolled up in the lettuce now. I do this wrap “sandwich” also using my homemade mayonnaise with some of my shawarma seasoning in it: http://buttoni.wordpress.com/2009/07/27/homemade-mayonnaise/ rather than the cream cheese and I like [...]

You know what they say: Everything’s bigger in TEXAS! Just down the road 10 miles from me in a little town called Zabcikville is Green’s Sausage House and Meat Market. It is quite the popular place with the locals. Folks in surrounding cities, like us, often drive over to enjoy or bring home [...]
Italian Stromboli Sandwich

Click pic to enlarge This wonderful low-carb version of a classic Italian Stromboli sandwich was so close I almost didn’t feel like I was eating low-carb! Of course, it wasn’t on the traditional crusty Italian bread. But Linda Genaw’s Artisan Flatbread recipe (made with mozzarella cheese) gave the stromboli an amazingly similar flavor minus the [...]
