Low Carb Kale and Beef with Mexican-Style Seasoning

Posted on February 4, 2012 by lowcarbconfidential

I get up early, and have ample time before work to putz around. Not having anything good to eat for my lunch, I thought I’d cook something up with the ground beef I defrosted in the fridge. The stuff is expensive, so I tend to want to use it in a dish that uses it [...]

Awesome Roast Garlic Chicken

Posted on January 29, 2012 by lowcarbconfidential

This isn’t mine – I found this one over at The Fork Left Behind. I tried this recipe and followed it to the letter – which I don’t usually do. I salted the bird and let it sit in the fridge for 3 hours, then let it sit covered on the counter top cover for [...]

Kitchen Experiment – Low Carb Kale and Bacon Crustless Quiche

Posted on January 26, 2012 by lowcarbconfidential

Inspired by a Quiche that Lee Kirsten posted on her blog, I decided to make one, so I riffed off her recipe a bit, using what I had at hand: 5 oz. package of baby kale the wife bought on sale and I could imagine no one eating 5 strips of bacon leftover from some [...]

Italian Chili – My Recipe for Beating the Cravings of Pasta and Pizza

Posted on January 22, 2012 by lowcarbconfidential

Last night I made this, it came out quite good, and I thought I would share. This is yet another variation on what I’ve done before. It provides a meat and vegetable-filled dish similar to a chili or stew in consistency, and, covered in grated parmesan cheese, it not only awesome, but fills that hole [...]

MiO Drink Mix (sorry -’Water Enhancer’) – A Replacement for the Sodastream Soda Mixes?

Posted on December 29, 2011 by lowcarbconfidential

  I have already stated – somewhere – that as part of my 2012 resolutions I was going to try to ditch the drink mixes. the reason I’m writing about MiO, however, is because my resolutions are not necessarily your resolutions, and I thought you’d appreciate an honest review. Prior to going on vacation, I [...]

A Year of Losing Weight – or Maybe Eight Years

Posted on December 3, 2011 by lowcarbconfidential

Last Thanksgiving, after a year where I had ballooned up to about 238 pounds rather quickly, I recommitted to low carb yet again. Today, one year later, I am down to 205. That works out to 33 pounds in 1 year, or 0.63 pounds a week, an absolutely horrible number – if you’re in a [...]

Low Carb Crock Pot Chicken Cacciatore Recipe

Posted on April 20, 2011 by lowcarbconfidential

I do this all the time. I come up with some concoction off-the cuff and riff on it, trying to make it simpler, and either make a dish so inedible that I never want to try it again or end up eating it for so long that the monotony kills my interest in it and [...]

The World’s Simplest Low Carb Kale Soup Recipe That’s Actually Tasty

Posted on March 6, 2011 by lowcarbconfidential

I have made a LOT of kale soup since January, and have come up with the perfect recipe. It is perfect in its simplicity – and it’s a crowd-pleaser. Kale is one of those morally superior vegetables that I believe a lot of health-conscious people pretend to like – either they pretend to others, themselves [...]
