Fatmad, your dinner sounds scrumptious.

Silver - I do make my own sausage sometimes but these were store bought!

Also thought of a good salad that I make sometimes but its perfect for atkins!

half an avo (leave whole as much as possible, scoop out with spoon).

about a 3/4 cup bay shrimp rinsed and dried, some dill, lemon, mayo

mix lemon, dill and mayo to make a mixture

mix shrimp with small amount of mayo mixture to coat, put shrimp in avo center, drizzle with balsamic. service.

Readyfreddy, your shrimp/avo dish is very popular with some ladies I know.

I like sliced avo with a burger and bacon.

Do you make breakfast sausage with ground meat or the kind in casings?

w the casings. I have an attachment to my kitchenaid to grind the meat and then stuff the casings.

I usually do an italian herb mix. But once I made an asian mix with cilantro, serranos, seasame oil etc that turned out quite well!

Meal plan for today:

bfast - string cheese (1), coffee with half and half and sweetner (2)

lunch - tandori chicken w spinach (8)

snack - cheese (1)

dinner - cucumber small lemon type (4), 2 cups cabbage (4), sausage (1)

total = 21

Readyfreddy, your sausages sound grand!

Dinner today: Soup made w/ bacon, greens, chives, with an egg mixed in.
Almond butter. Whipped cream w/ blueberries

Barbecued Baby Backs...
 

I'm doing up some baby back ribs in the oven this evening...since I'm out of Scott's Barbecue sauce, I'm experimenting with making my own sauce using pureed petite dice tomatoes, garlic, a little onion, splenda, vinegar and whatever else sounds good. I'll report on my sauce when I finish!

I'll have a spinach salad: spinach, English cucumber, red onion with bleu cheese dressing.

Sugar-free cherry jello. :p

mmmm BBQ!

Switched it up...
 

Last night I didn't the ribs I'd planned. (That's tonight's dinner instead with a spinach salad) I got involved in making treats for my dog and cook-ahead sausage and egg quiche, so instead of ribs I had:

French onion soup (remember that great pot roast...the jellied stuff at the bottom of the pot became the base for an excellent homemade soup)
A big square of sausage, egg, and cheese quiche

Sausage, Egg, and Cheese quiche deliciousness!


Not a new recipe, but adapted for Atkins Induction...and it's delicious.

3 large eggs
1 pound mild sausage
1/2 c. grated cheddar cheese
1/3 c. heavy cream diluted with 1/3 water
Salt, freshly- ground pepper, red pepper flakes to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees (if using glass pan)
Crumble the sausage into a frying pan on medium. Cook and drain the sausage. Whisk eggs with cream and seasonings. Spray a baking dish or pie pan (I like a pretty ceramic quiche pan) with Pam. Lay sausage in the bottom of the pan, sprinkle the cheese on top of it evenly. Then pour the egg-cream mixture over it evenly. Bake at 350 degrees 30-40 minutes in glass or ceramic dish. If you're using metal, 375 degrees.

Let it cool a few minutes before you slice into servings. Makes 4 - 6 servings.

Everybody loves this as a breakfast / brunch dish. If it's brunch, serve with a green salad, grilled or steamed asparagus, a thick slice of tomato.

Nice adapting on the quiche!

Today's dinner: Corned beef and Brussel sprouts

Barbecue Chicken...
 

Tonight I'm having Barbecue Chicken ( a rotisserie chicken I've carved into serving pieces and put barbecue sauce on some of them and popped back into the oven on low for about 25 min.) and a spinach salad - spinach, red onion, English cucumber and ranch dressing.

I used 2 T. of Kraft's Original Barbecue Sauce (5 carbs) on four pieces of chicken, and I actually ate two of the pieces of chicken. I'm out of Scott's, and it's driving me nuts! :p

I'm staying really close to induction this week, so it's been lots spinach, mixed greens, cucumber, a little red onion, and mostly chicken and eggs as proteins. Just a little cheese spread over the week.
