Crock Pot Ribs or Chops Effort:Easy
Ingredients:
6 or 8 chops or ribs to fill crock pot 1/4 c. onion, chopped
1/2 c. celery, chopped 1 c. catsup
1/2 c. water 1/4 c. lemon juice2 tbsp. brown sugar substitute

LAMB WRAPPED IN GRAPE LEAVES Serves:15+ CarbsPerServing:3 - 5 (1 carb per wrapped leaf)
Prep Time:1 1/2 - 2 hours Effort:Average
Ingredients:
1 whole leg of ground lamb *or extremely lean red meat*
1/2 cup of pine nuts
Amt of all spice (whole) to liking (minimal amt)
*you can choose to alter what you put in your lamb filler*
Water
lemon juice
tiny can of tomato sause.
How to Prepare:
You have to estimate the amt of filling for the leaves because of
the varying sizes. DO NOT overstuff the leaves.
Layer and tightly lay the wrapped grape leaves in your pot. Lemon
juice and tomato in pot and THEN add just enough water to cover the
grape leaves. You want then to make sure that you have a plate or
something heavy to keep the grape leaves from floating around. If
they float at all then they will unwrap and you wont have Lamb in
Grape Leaves.
SIMMER ! NOT BOIL
Takes about 1 1/2 - 2 hours. Just test for the leaves to be cooked.
Carb count per leave minus the dietary fiber is .6 carbs.
Pine nuts are only 4 carbs per 1/2 cup. So they are not even
measureable unless you eat the whole pot LOL.

Meatloaf Serves:4 CarbsPerServing:7
Prep Time:30-min Effort:Average
Ingredients:
1-loaf pan 1-lb ground beef (or turkey or chicken)
1-med onion (chopped finely)
12-mushrooms (or around that; chopped finely, like onion/NOT sliced))
3-5 cloves of garlic (or less, if you're a wimp! crushed/chopped finely )
2-3 TBS chopped parlsey1-egg
1/2 cup chicken broth (or water)
1-cup bread crumbs (or substitute; I use Keto Crumbs but you could
also just use less broth and more mushrooms/onion)
1/2-cup olive oil (you can use more if you'd like)
1-tsp salt (or 1-TBS soy sauce)
1/2-tsp black pepper
How to Prepare:
I make a wonderful meatloaf that can pass for a meatball-flavored
meal. You can slice it up and serve it with brown gravy and
vegetables or top with melted mozzarella and marinara sauce or break
it up into pieces and make into a beef stroganoff or however else
you feel like being creative...It's a great thing to have around for
lunches or dinners. You can even freeze slices and have whenever you
feel like it. BTW-I think this is the best meatloaf I've ever had,
not like the traditional at all.
First, pre-heat oven for 375-degrees. Next, saute all the mushrooms,
onion, garlic, and parsley in a pan with the olive oil. Don't let it
burn (garlic tastes yucky when burnt). When the onions are soft,
remove from heat to let cool down. In a large bowl, add meat, egg,
bread crumbs (or substitute), chicken broth (or water), salt (or soy
sauce), and pepper. When the sauteed mixture has cooled enough, add
it to the bowl and mix all ingredients (with very clean hands or
proper mixer) until everything is well-combined. Now, put mixture
into loaf pan (NO need to oil/grease pan as there is plenty of fat
already in the mixture from the olive oil). Put into the oven and
bake for 45-minutes. Voila! Now, you have a delicious, low-carb
meatloaf (that tastes sort of like a meatball) that you can serve up
all sorts of ways. Slice loaf into ten slices. There are about 3-gm
of carbs per each slice (or 30-gm carbs/loaf). Enjoy!
Steak with Pate and Cheese Serves:2 CarbsPerServing:2-4 (depending on pate and cheese)
Prep Time:15 mins Effort:Easy
Ingredients:

Fry the steak until it's cooked as much as you want (I prefer well
done) then remove from pan, spread a thin layer of pate over the
cooked steak and top with cheese. Place under the grill until cheese
bubbles. Yum. You can also fry some onion with the steak and put it
between the pate and the cheese.

1 can beef broth 1 tsp sweetener (1g)
2 DASHES Cinnamon 2-3 tsp cumin (1g)
Salt/Pepper to taste oil or lard
How to Prepare:
***FIRST!! Don't panic about the number of carbs! MOST of them will
remain in the crockpot in the sauce.
Get out your crock pot and heat it.
Prepare the tomato paste by mixing well with a small amount of water
to tomato sauce consistency.
In a large skillet, heat the oil or lard, brown the meat. Place the
meat, onion, bell pepper, tomato paste and seasonings in the
crockpot. Cook until the meat is fork tender (usually about 4-5
hours).
Remove from sauce w/a slotted spoon, making sure to let as much of
the sauce as possible drain. Place in a bowl or on a plate and pull
to shreds with the back of a fork.
Serve on a locarb tortilla or on a bed of lettuce. Side with pico di
gallo, sour cream, if you wish.
TOTAL RECIPE CARB COUNTS: 76g--remember, most is left in the crock
