INGREDIENTS: 1 link smoked sausage, pre-cooked (mine weighed 2½ oz.) 3 oz. pepper jack cheese DIRECTIONS: Preheat broiler. Slice [...]

Smoked Oyster Canapés
Posted in Others Snacks, Party Food, SNACKS, APPETIZERS on August 2, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
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 [...]
Tuna Pâté Canapés
Posted in Others Snacks, Party Food, SNACKS, APPETIZERS on June 27, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
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 [...]
Peggy’s Tuna Pâté

Click pic to enlarge This is a variation on the Atkins Italian Tuna Pâté recipe in the book Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution. This wonderful spread is , I do believe, what got me through Induction. I have since modified the recipe a bit and think it is even better than the original. This is [...]
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 [...]
Rutabaga or Jicama Bacon Appetizers
Posted in Party Food, SNACKS, APPETIZERS on November 19, 2010 | 2 Comments »
Click pic to enlarge I found I like these made with both jicama and rutabaga, but the jicama version is slightly lower net carbs. I did not find the jicama version quite as tasty as the rutabaga version. Oddly enough, I found the ones made with rutabaga almost like (don’t laugh) bacon wrapped oysters! I [...]
Sausage Cheese Balls
Posted in Party Food, SNACKS, APPETIZERS on October 8, 2010 | 2 Comments »
Click pic to enlarge This is a low carb version of the classic party appetizer that vanishes faster than you can take them out of the oven. Traditionally these are done with a sharp cheddar and that is what I have calculated in the nutritional info for this recipe. But other cheeses could be substituted [...]
Crawfish Bacon Appetizers

Click pic to enlarge This is a recipe that originally calls for crab meat, but as I cannot get the great crab available to me when I lived in Galveston, I tried these with crawfish tails instead. Came out real good, too. And not too heavy for a lunch alongside a nice green salad. Great [...]
Jalapeño Chicken Bacon Wraps

Click pic to enlarge These always go over well at parties where you’re going to have the charcoal grill fired up anyway for cooking your main course. I have been known to put a small, thin strip of cheddar, Swiss or jack cheese in these, too, which is very good. But they are messier to [...]
Chicken Bacon Poppers
Posted in Party Food, SNACKS, APPETIZERS on November 21, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Click pic to enlarge This is my version of an appetizer a local Central Texas Mexican restaurant serves. They don’t baste with BBQ sauce, but rather use a dry rub seasoning of some sort. These are both quick, tasty and they are OK for Induction. INGREDIENTS: 20 oz. chicken meat, cooked ¼ c. Smokey BBQ [...]
