Trip down Mayberry Lane

2011-06-09T16:03:00.000-07:00

Did you ever watch The Andy Griffith show? It was entertaining and lighthearted and it was one of my favorite shows to watch on Sunday mornings while my parents made breakfast. Everything about it made me want to hitchhike a ride to Mayberry, North Carolina and visit all the colorful characters that lived there. I discovered a cookbook a few years ago that sparked my fantasies as a child of Andy Griffith and his family. It's called Aunt Bee's Mayberry Cookbook and it's filled over 300 recipes that Aunt Bee herself served at the Griffith table.

Why We Get Fat and What to Do About It

2011-02-23T14:51:00.000-08:00

Gary Taubes newest book "Why We Get Fat And What To Do About It" is a well-thought out and researched book that scientifically proves the low carb lifestyle to be the ultimate solution for weight loss and better health. He will soon be appearing on Dr. Oz talking about this book. He proves through scientific research that the common knowledge of how to lose weight in America today is not exactly right. This book is very imformative and also easier to read than most nutrition or diet books because it flat out shows you what you need to know without out jumping around the point. I highly recommend this book and I'm sure it can give you a brand new look on nutrition and your daily diet. And for all those already low carb dieters you can tell all your friends "I told you so!" Enjoy!

Yes! To Cookies

2011-02-22T07:39:00.000-08:00

Yes! To Cookies is the most yummy dessert that I have come across in a while in my search for Low Carb snacks. It is truly carb free, sugar free and gulten free! These cookies are so good and they don't taste like usual sugar free cookies. There is no aftertaste and there's a delicious glaze on top that keeps them moist. My favorite flavor is Cocoa-Licious because it's a perfect chocolate fix but there's also Strawberry-Banana Blitz and Old Fashioned Ginger Spice. My mom and I were trying to find a low carb dessert to make after dinner and she broke the Strawberry-Banana Blitz cookies into crumbs and made a mousse to go on top and it was awesome! Yes! to Cookies are so amazing because they are the only truly sugar free, gluten free, all-natural sweet baked treat on the market. Enjoy!

Cookie Jar Christmas Cookies

2010-12-01T09:11:00.000-08:00

While looking for recipes the other day, I came across the "cookie jar christmas cookies" in one of my favorite cookbooks, Southern Plate by Christy Jordan, and after reading through it I realized that these were the same cookies I used to eat all the time around Christmas with my family! The way Christy describes them, their taste and look, is exactly as I remember. Those cookies bring back such good childhood memories and with Christmas just around corner I'd love to make these again. The following is an excerpt from that recipe page.

Cookie Jar Christmas
"Throughout my childhood, these were our must-have cookies for Christmas. Mama would make a huge batch so we all had plenty to decorate. She cut them in the shapes fo trees, stars, and reindeer, and each of us got our own sprinkles to go on top. They will be 'wet' right after icing and decorating; wait an hour or so and they will be dry enough to be stacked in a cookie jar. This cookie isn't very sweet on its own, which makes it altogether perfect once you add the icing. Mama always made three batches of icing for these cookies so she could have three different colors. She prefers to use squirt margarine in place of butter for easier blending."

Cookies
2/3 cup shortening
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
4 teaspoons milk
2 cups White Lily All-Purpose Flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Icing
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon softened butter or margarine
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon Singing Dog Vanilla Extract
A few drops of food coloring

Ms. Millie's Best Coleslaw

2010-11-14T14:43:00.000-08:00

Coleslaw is a classic southern side dish that can be seen at every barbecue, church luncheon, or family reunion. Coleslaw is made in so many different ways and styles that it's hard to have one universal recipe. This is a short narrative and recipe from one of my favorite southern cookbooks The Southern Plate by Christy Jordan describing her idea of the best coleslaw.

Ms. Millie's Best Coleslaw
"Miss Millie is my grandmother Lucille's oldest and dearest friend. I consider her an adopted grandmother myself. She is kindhearted and as loving as the day is long, always ready with a word of wisdom or encouragement to anyone who needs it. We love her slaw almost as much as we love her. Mama serves this whenever we have pulled pork barbecue alongside my grandmother's potato salad and everyone who has it always requests it whenever they come back."

1 medium head green cabbag, cored and shredded
2 medium carrots, peeled and grated
1 green bell pepper, cored, seeded and diced
2 tablespoons grated onion
2 cups Duke's Mayonnaise
3/4 cup Dixie Crystals Sugar
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons celery sees
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup Dijon mustard

Place the cabbage, carrots, green pepper, and onion in a large bowl. In another bowl, mix together all the remaining ingredients, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Pour over the vegetables and toss well to combine. Cover and refridgerate for 3 to 4 hours before serving for the flavors to blend.

La Tiara 4 Carb Corn Taco Shells

2010-09-06T08:53:00.000-07:00

Sometimes I just get fed up when my family decides to eat mexican for dinner because I feel like I have to cheat on my diet. I can only eat just taco meat and cheese so many times before I want to go ahead a eat a real taco. A few months ago I discovered the La Tiara Corn Taco Shells and now I feel like I can enjoy dinner with my family and be free from the guilt of not being strict. It's not the gross kind of shell that tastes like it was made out of cardboard either. It really does taste authentic! This also gives me away to make my family eat healthier without any drastic changes. Next time your watching someone enjoy a delicous taco don't give in because there's always another alternative. Enjoy!

Southern Shrimp and Grits

2010-07-27T08:52:00.000-07:00

Southern Shrimp and Grits

Even though this dish is usually eaten during dinner, it originally was eaten as breakfast. Fisherman in the southeast would cook the shrimp they caught in bacon grease and put it on grits. Over the years it became more and more popular as a southern dish.

Ingredients:
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, finely diced
1 clove garlic, finely minced
3 cups milk
2 cups water
1/2 cup heavy cream

20 medium to large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4 cup minced shallots
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 cup white wine
1/1 cup heavy cream
cayenne pepper
Salt and pepper

Add butter and olive oil to saucepan over medium heat. When butter has melted add onion and cook until soft than add garlic and cook for another minute. Turn the heat to high and pour in the milk, cream and water. Bring to a boil and slowly whisk in the grits. Turn the heat medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes. When done, dump in cheese and stir until melted. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.

Add bacon to a large skillet set over medium high heat. Cook until golden brown and crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels. Pour out all but 3 tablespoons of the oil

Set the skillet back over medium high heat and when nearly smoking, add shrimp. Cook until pink, about 1 1/2 minutes per side.

Remove shrimp from pan, keep warm. Add shallots to pan and cook until soft. Add 1/4 cup of white wine and 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Add 1/4 teaspoon dried basil. Simmer until reduced to desired consistency.

Add shrimp and reserved bacon to sauce. Add salt, pepper and cayenne pepper to taste. Serve grits with shrimp on top and drizzle with rest of sauce.

Barbeque Sauce: A Southern History

2010-07-15T13:50:00.000-07:00

Barbeque has been around since the invention of fire. Man has always been cooking meat on an open fire but there was one thing missing from this tradition.
Barbeque Sauce.

Known all over the world as a thing of deliciousness. Whether you spell it barbe'que' or barbe'cue' sauce, you know that it's one of the only things that takes barbeque from being bland to extraordinary. While the exact origin of barbeque sauce is not clear, we do know that most American barbeque sauces can trace their backgrounds to the South East. Slap dap in heart of the Bible Belt is the long history of producing mouth-watering barbeque sauce.

So many different ingredients go into barbeque sauces, whether it be ketchup, cabbage, mayonnaise, vinegar or slaw that each state and region seems to have their own signature sauces. Eastern North Carolina has more of a vinegar base while the hilly area of western North Carolina uses tomato sauce to soften the sauce. A small area between Columbia and Charleston in South Carolina is known for it's yellow barbecue sauces made with yellow mustard. Barbeque sauce has a great Southern history and usually the best place to eat something is the place it started. So come on down to the region of hospitality and try some great barbeque sauce or if that's too far, you can always order some real authentic Southern sauce right to your door!

Some great BBQ Sauces that I would recommend:

Happy National Iced Tea Month!

2010-06-25T09:30:00.000-07:00

If you go anywhere in the South, the one thing you'll see more of than Baptist churches is sweet tea. Sweet tea is one of the most important traditions in the South and is consumed daily during almost every meal. Until now, living a low carb lifestyle and craving sweet tea did not coexist but now Southerners can rejoice! The invention of Splenda and other alternative sweeteners have saved the day once again! And since it's National "Iced" Tea Month, I'm going to share with you some great low carb sweet tea secrets and the products that I love to drink!
Tips on Making Sweet Tea:
-Don't put the tea straight in the refrigerator after you make it. Let it cool to room temperature and then put it in the fridge. Trust me. It tastes WAY better and it's not as cloudy looking.
-Don't add ice to your tea while it's hot. Put ice in your cup and then pour the tea over it when you're ready to drink it .
-A little lemon never hurt anyone.

My Favorite Low-Carb Tea Products:
-Have you ever been to the Beacon? If you haven't, the first thing to know is that they have amazing food, but their sweet tea is heavenly. Here's that wonderful tea but w/ Splenda!
-Sugar Free Luzianne Ready To Drink Southern Sweet Tea
-Luzianne Tea Bags so you can sweeten it however you choose!

Best Sweeteners for Tea:
-Stevia
-Splenda
-Ideal

Enjoy!

Square Foot Garden

2010-03-31T13:05:00.000-07:00

It's that time again at the Connoisseur to fix up our square foot garden. We originally embarked on this journey early last spring with the help of Mr. Mel Bartholomew's wonderful gardening book. We were all filled with the hope of fresh vegetables from our own backyard, but sadly we started too late and it didn't turn out as well as planned. We did manage to get some very delicious, but small, cherry tomatoes, zucchini, onions and potatoes. This time we're more prepared and ready to buckle down and take care of our garden. We'll also be sure to upload photos and keep you updated with how our garden is doing.

What the Connoisseur Recommends:

All New Square Foot Gardening: Grow More in Less Space!

This book by Mel Bartholomew is fantastic! His square foot gardens are perfect with any sized yard, large or small. This book saved us a lot of grief over our garden and gave us some great money-saving tips

9 Piece Gardening Tool Kit with Foldaway Stool with Backrest and Detachable Tote

This tool kit is the coolest thing! It has all you need to garden with, like a trowel, transplanter, and a rake, but then it has a neat collapsable stool with a backrest. So after planting all of your new flowers in your flower bed in the hot sun, you can just conveniently relax and take a break with back support. Can it get any better?

Amazing Low Carb Pasta!

2010-03-01T13:40:00.000-08:00

"The man who sticks to his plan will become what he used to want to be" - James Richardson

A very simple but true quote that I feel applies to me as I embark on my low carb diet. As long as I stick to my plan and try hard, I can become the person that I envision. Even though it's easy to stray from my plan, I've found some things to help keep me on track.

A few nights ago, I was so hungry and dreading dinner because I thought "There's not going to be anything other than meat and cheese, same as any other night". I walked into the kitchen and I saw my mom cooking pasta (which is definitely against the rules as any good low carb dieter knows). Turns out it was Dreamfield's Angel Pasta and it tasted exactly like the real thing!

I'm so glad there's alternatives that you can eat while doing a low carb diet because I don't feel deprived at all! I can still eat chicken alfredo for dinner and even have a bagel for breakfast when I want, all while losing weight!

Dreamfield's Pasta - True to it's name, it's like a dream to anyone who hasn't had any good pasta in a really long time.

Carb Krunchers Bagels - These were so great that I totally forgot that they were low carb products.

Sugar Free Mexican Hot Chocolate

2010-02-25T19:22:00.000-08:00

It's February and it's freezing outside, so why not warm up with a cup of yummy sugar free hot chocolate?

Chocolate and cinnamon mixed with warmed milk then frothed with a molinillo. A Mexican Molinillo is the Mexican chocolate "whisk" or "stirrer". It is made of "turned" wood and it is used to froth warm drinks such as hot chocolate, Atole, and Champurrado. A normal wire whisk works too. It's great for people who are enjoying a low carb lifestyle!

Ingredients

2 cups Blue Diamond Almond milk or WestSoy Soy Milk

3 Tablespoons Ghiradelli Unsweetened cocoa

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

4 tablespoons low calorie sweetener

1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise

Instructions

Warm the milk, cocoa, cinnamon and sweetener in a saucepan. Scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean and add the seeds and bean to the milk. Stir with a molinillo or whisk until the cocoa is disolved and the mixture begins to boil. Remove from the heat and froth the chocolate with the molinillo or the whisk. Serve immediately in ample sized mugs and ENJOY!

Sugar Free Chocolate Drizzled Caramel Popcorn

2009-11-08T10:08:00.000-08:00

Did somebody say sweet and salty? There's something here for everybody to love. This recipe brings together the salty, crunch of popcorn with the savory kick of caramel and the sweet drizzle of chocolate!

All you need is:

2 bags microwave popcorn

1 cup Steel's Powdered Maltitol

1/2 cup Steel's Vanilla Syrup

1 teaspoon vinegar
3 ChocoPerfection Bars

1 tablespoon butter

Makes 10 Servings

Pop the corn and remove the unpopped kernels. Place into a large mixing bowl. Mix the Maltitol, syrup and vinegar together in a heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil on medium heat, stirring constantly to a temperature of 240°(soft ball). Immediately turn off heat and add the butter. Stir until blended and then pour over the popcorn. Using a long handled wooden spoon, quickly toss the popcorn with the hot mixture. You have to work fast before the candy sets up and be careful not to touch the hot mixture.

After the corn is well coated, spread the popcorn on a buttered baking pan and allow to completely cool.Separate the popcorn into pieces or clumps using your hands coated in a little butter.

Take the ChocoPerfection bars and break into several pieces. Place in a microwave safe glass dish and microwave until melted, heating for 30 second increments at a time and stirring when necessary. When chocolate is completely melted, using a spoon, drizzle chocolate over the popcorn and allow to cool.
