These little crispy gems I made today were FANTASTIC alongside my bunless hamburger at lunch. I could eat them all by themselves or with a good sour cream onion dip any old day. Tasted just like potato chips to me and were VERY crisp, even after they cooled off. When I was growing up, my [...]

BBQ “Potato” Chips
Posted in Crackers, Others Snacks, SNACKS, APPETIZERS on October 27, 2011 | 5 Comments »
These crispy little chips came out so close to BBQ potato chips, the only thing I might do next time is crumble up a tiny bit of a tomato bouillon cube into the spice mix. Check in both the Mexican Food area and the soup/bouillon area of your grocery store for Knorr or Goya tomato [...]
Nacho Cheese “Corn Chips”

Man, I have often wondered if you could deep fry jicama, but I honestly just didn’t believe you could hide the sweet quality of jicama enough to bother to try it. I also didn’t think I could ever slice it thin enough to work for something like this. Well, I bought a little folding Rival [...]

My new kitchen toy is a Guide Gear 10-shelf dehydrator, seen here, if interested: http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/cb.aspx?a=876424 . It just cranked out the most beautiful, tasty batch of beef jerky in 4 hours flat!! I love me some good beef jerky!! This has always been my husband’s favorite snack as well. And the perfect low-carb snack indeed! [...]

A quick snack if using fully cooked smoked sausage. I had 1 link we grilled this week leftover in my refrigerator and made a plate of these tasty bites for lunch today. This is Induction friendly. INGREDIENTS: 1 link smoked sausage, pre-cooked (mine weighed 2½ oz.) 3 oz. pepper jack cheese DIRECTIONS: Preheat broiler. Slice [...]
Spicy Onion Rings

Click pic to enlarge I’ve been wanting to try my hand at onion rings. I am not so wild about onion rings, but my husband sure loves them. These are oven-baked instead of fried, so no greasy mess on the stove. They came out very tasty, but were considerably softer than a deep-fried, batter-coated onion [...]
Smoked Oyster Canapés

A quick and tasty snack or party appetizer for your next football game gathering. Of course, if you don’t care for smoked oysters, you probably won’t like these. But my folks always kept smoked oysters in the house and it was a favorite snack with saltines. But I’ve found a low carb way to still [...]
Italian Meatballs

I like to make a huge batch of meatballs when I make them so I’ll have a bunch to freeze for convenient future use. Not only do these make wonderful snacks as is or with your favorite low-carb sauces, but it’s nice to have them already cooked to pop into your favorite spaghetti sauce. They [...]
Tuna Pâté Canapés

These are great for serving at parties or family gatherings. They are Induction friendly and are very filling. If you make the pâté and crackers ahead of the special event, these go together in minutes! And they are often the hit of the party! My recommendation: MAKE A LOT! Serve just as a snack, as [...]
Steak Nachos
Posted in Others Snacks, Party Food, SNACKS, APPETIZERS on May 8, 2011 | 2 Comments »
This is a tasty way to use up leftover charcoaled steak. I just discovered you “don’t need no stinkin’” corn chips for a good nacho! Steak works just fine and this is reminiscent of the fajita nachos the Mexican restaurants serve! This recipe is not suitable until the legumes rung of OWL unless you omit [...]
Peggy’s Trail Mix

Click pic to enlarge I absolutely love this stuff! It’s like having fruitcake but without all the cake! If you’re to the fruit rung of the OWL ladder, instead of dried cranberries, you could substitute dried peaches or apricots for a totally different flavor. Of course doing so will mean an increase in overall [...]
Olive Tapenade

Click pic to enlarge This is my take on the olive spread often served with the bread/salad course in Greek Restaurants. This topping can also be used on baked fish and is also quite good atop sliced, broiled tomatoes. I love it spread on my Sesame Cheddar Flax Crackers of my Cracked Pepper Flax-Cheddar Crackers.
