Low Carb Deep Fried Cauliflower

2 eggs beaten

 

Add about a nice tablespoon of flour. It

doesn't have to be an exact measurement. 

Mix flour with eggs then add cauliflower. 

Mix well to coat all the cauliflower. 

Add to a hot pan with about 1/2 in 

oil....about 300 degrees...fry til golden 

brown

 

 So simple

Its very simple. 

One of those things you really can't mess

up. 

If using frozen, thaw the cauliflower out so

it sticks to the egg mixture better.

Low Carbohydrate HOBO DINNER

LOW CARB HOBO DINNER

• 1/4 pound ground beef
• 1 green pepper, sliced
• 1 pack of mushrooms, sliced
• 1/2 chopped onion
• 2 T. butter
• 1 sheet heavy-duty aluminum foil (18 inches x 13 inches)
• Salt  and pepper to taste
• Shredded cheese {optional}
• 
  

To begin, spread out a sheet of tin foil. Don’t use just ordinary tin foil. You need heavy duty foil. The last thing you want is for the foil to rip and leak your food or juices while cooking.If you do not have the heavy stuff use two layers of the regular foil.

 Form your meat patty. I like to make mine kinda thick, but it is all in your preference. 

Season your patty with garlic salt  and pepper 

Top your pattie with assorted low carb veggies, cut up and peel any that need it. You can customize your own any way you want. Put 2 large pats of butter on the top of the whole mix...Sometimes I use broccoli and cauliflower then add cheese just before serving....today I used mushrooms, green pepper,  and red onion ...

Fold your Hobo dinner up...I like to pull the 4 corners together, and then scrunch all the seams that are open together. 

Now you have 2 ways to cook the hobo dinner. In the oven or on the grill. 

In the oven add your hobo dinner onto a baking sheet and put into a preheated oven at 350 degrees and cook for 45 minutes. 

On the grill, again make sure the grill is preheated. Then cook for 30-40 minutes.

Open your dinner carefully..the steam can be brutal!!!

Top with chesse...ENJOY!!

Ultimate Low CARB Grilled Cheese

This might be my favorite comfort food that is easy and quick to fix...

I am lucky enough to have an awesome cheese factory down the street from my house {Widmer Cheese Cellar }that makes a creamy oh so gooey mild brick cheese that melts like a dream. 

You may use any cheese you like as long as it is not processed it is naturally low in carbs.

I use the low carb bread , a bit of mayonnaise, and fresh sliced Roma tomatoes....and real butter...Oh ya... 

Assemble your sandwich and fry on a low heat with a covered pan to make sure all that cheese melts....
