What have I been eating?

Haven't posted anything in a while. Things have been hectic since we came back from a family visit in Georgia. So, what have I been eating lately? Well, I thought I would show you some pictures of what I eat. I subscribe to a lot of blogs and for the most part, I get my recipes from those. I am not to the point where I can create my own recipes from scratch and post them yet. That is my ultimate goal. In the meantime, I will just have to get my ideas from others. Don't worry, I always give credit where credit is due. Unless I come up with a recipe on my own, or make several changes to something, I link back to my original source for the recipe. So, without further ado, here are some pics of a handful of things I have made and the story behind them.
First up is Better Butter Chicken. This is the one recipe I can't give you. See, I got it out of a book and I would not re-post it without permission from the author, Sarah Fragoso. She authored the book Everyday Paleo and that's where the recipe came from. I purchased this book when it became available in Nook format and it was well worth the $10 I spent. Lots of great recipes and other info if you are trying to transition your family to this way of eating. So, how was it? It was excellent! I had it over some steamed broccoli with half of  a Sandwich "Muffin" to sop up the sauce with.

My 2-year-old liked it too!

Up next is breakfast from one morning. I had some center-cut bacon leftover in my fridge, so I decided to make a sandwich. I once again made my trusty Sandwich "Muffin" and scrambled up an egg. I topped it with a slice of Deluxe American cheese and voila! Breakfast is served. It was quite tasty and reminded me of the bacon, egg and cheese biscuits I used to get at McDonalds only way better!

Last up is a recipe I came across on a Pinterest board  for donuts, and had to check it out. I am very glad I did because these were some of the tastiest donuts I have ever had. And they are low carb to boot! These were created by the genius over at Your Lighter Side. The only changes I made were in the glaze. I did not have any 80% chocolate and did not want to run to the store to get some. So I just used 1 ounce of unsweetened chocolate and upped the sweetener amount. I also made them in a standard donut pan. I will definitely be making these again!

My donuts fresh from the oven!

These came out of the pan fairly easily.

All glazed up and ready to eat!

Seriously, who needs Dunkin' Donuts?

So, there are some of the things I have been testing out and happily eating. I hope you will try some of these recipes yourself and see how tasty and satisfying eating this way is.
