CarbsPerServing:minimal
Prep Time:30 mins
Effort:Easy
Ingredients:
2 cans of beets w/juice (sliced, whole, etc)
5 packets (or more to taste, you can add more later) Splenda
1 C water
3/4 C cider vinegar
3 bay leaves
2 tsp mustard seed
1.5 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp whole allspice
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1/2 tsp celery seed
1 doz small peeled and cooked hard cooked eggs
How to Prepare:
Put all ingredients except the eggs into a sauce pan. Bring to a
boil. Simmer for 10 minutes. COOL COMPLETELY. (If you don’t and add
the eggs, you will get a totally inedible egg). Refrigerate for two
days. Then enjoy!
Note: I have left out ingredients I didn’t have at various times.
I’ve substituted Coleman’s mustard powder for the seed, omitted
allspice, celery seed, etc. And they’ve been fine.
If the solution after cooled tastes too vinegar like, add more
splenda to cut the vinegar taste.

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.

Serves: 8 Servings.
Carbs Per Serving: 6 grams carb 2 grams fiber (ECC=4)
Prep Time:<20 minutes
Effort:Easy
Ingredients:
2/3 cup vinegar
½ cup whipping cream
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
¼-1/2 cup Splenda
Pinch of salt
1 ½ tablespoons butter cut into pieces
1 (2-pound) head cabbage, shredded
How to Prepare:
Combine first 5 ingredients in a small, heavy saucepan; cook over
low heat, stirring constantly with a wire whisk, 8 to 10 minutes or
until thickened (mixture will appear curdled until it thickens).
Remove from heat. Add butter, stirring until it melts. Pour over
cabbage; toss gently to coat. Cover and chill.
You can add ½ cup chopped walnuts and only raise the carb count by
½ gram. If you’re on maintenance, ½ cup dried, chopped
cranberries and the walnuts brings you in at a little under 10 grams.
