Low Carb Biscuits with Goat Cheddar

The Best Low Carb Cheddar Biscuits - gluten free, Only 1 Net Carb

Get ready to butter them biscuits!! This grain-free, low carb biscuit recipe I am sharing with you today is current favorite of mine to enjoy any time of day! I toast them in the morning under the oven broiler and top them with goat milk butter and sour pie cherry jam, make mini turkey avocado bacon sandwiches with them at lunch, and serve a toasted buttered biscuit on the side of my big ol’ salad at dinner. I also sneak them into restaurants when we dine out for brunch so I can enjoy my biscuits alongside a fancy omelet and fresh fruit cup….

Apple Fritters – Paleo – Low Carb

Apple Fritter - Low Carb - Paleo (just 4 net carbs per fritter!)

This recipe was inspired by our three day stay in Polebridge, Montana last week. Can I just tell you I loved everything about Polebridge! Tucked away in the northwest corner of Montana, just 22 miles south of the Canadian border, and on the western edge of Glacier National Park, you will find this great little gem of a town.

Cinnamon Sugar Donuts – Low Carb – Gluten Free

Low Carb Donuts - Gluten FreeThis has been by go-to donut recipe for a while now! And I never tire of it. Recently I changed it up by using Lankanto as the sweetener, but they taste just as amazing with honey if you’d rather use that.

For the past eight months I have been using erythritol in my diet on occasion, and I have had no bad reactions to it whatsoever. Is it too good to be true that I found a sweet tasting zero calorie sweetener with no side effects? We will have to wait and see! But so far 8 months in, I have no complaints. I have read it can cause IBS for some, so feel free to use any other sweetener you’d like in this recipe, including sweet divine honey or maple syrup. The Now Brand erythritol I buy is a fermented sugar alcohol made from Non-GMO corn.

Grain Free Granola made from Nut Pulp

Budget Friendly - Grain Free Granola!This granola is now my top favorite use for the leftover nut pulp you get after making a fresh batch of nut milk! The nut pulp creates a light and crunchy granola. It’s perfect for guilt free, grain free snacking. I sell high quality 100% nylon mesh bags, made here in the USA, on my website for $10 each (free shipping!) so you can make batch after batch of fresh almond, walnut, or hazelnut milk, and then also have an endless supply of nut pulp to make this granola. I love pure + simple recipes like this, where nothing goes to waste and the whole family can enjoy them.

This recipe was inspired by a photo Alicia took of the honey nut granola she made from a recipe in the cookbook, A Place to Start Without Sugar or Starch, which I haven’t actually read yet myself. She shared the photo in our Low/No Starch Diet for Ankylosing Spondylitis on Facebook. And I was like, awesome! A granola made from nut milk pulp! Brilliant. I created my own version below. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

Feel free to use the pulp from any nuts. Almonds seem to yield the most pulp. You can also use walnut, hazelnut, or another nut that you prefer….

Sweet and Sour Chicken (paleo, starch free)

sweet and sour chicken - paleo - gluten free

Sweet & Sour Chicken was one of my most favorite dishes to get at Chinese Restaurants when I was a kid, but it has been so many years since I have dared to eat anything that resembled the “real thing”. Baking the chicken in the coating of sesame seeds gives them the perfect light “crunch”, and the apricot based sauce provides a naturally tangy sweet, while the vinegar provides the lively sour.  I am sharing this recipe as another sneak peak into the Pure and Simple Paleo, Low Starch Cookbook I will be releasing soon. My cookbook is filled with recipes that are truly pure and simple, easy to prepare, and absolutely satisfying. If you try this recipe, please let me know what you think below in the comments! And if you do any modifications, please share those too!!…
