BBQ Cheese Coleslaw


Are you looking for a new twist on coleslaw but don't have a clue where to start?

All's I can say is: Oh My God!  This is FANTASTIC!

Prepare at least 4 hours in advance of serving for a rich and creamy texture

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups Mayonnaise
1/4 cup Barbeque Sauce
1/2 cup schredded Cheddar
1/2 a head of Cabbage
3 large Carrots

Directions

Grate the carrots
Shred the white cabbage into matchstick size strips
Mix the cabbage and carrot in a bowl and add Mayonnaise, Barbeque sauce and Cheese
Mix well until creamy

Crunchy vegetables and cheddar cheese blended together in a smokey BBQ mayonnaise

I was able to matchstick cut the cabbage by hand.  I'm gonna let you into a little secret.  Although I did it...  next time I make this, I'm bringing out the Kitchenaid Food Processor and I'm gonna work smarter, not harder.

Christmas Potpourri

In a small saucepan add:

  • 1 cut up orange (you can also slice the orange)
  • 3 cinnamon sticks, broken in half (I think it releases more of the fragrance)
  • 1 cup of fresh cranberries
  • 1 – 2 teaspoons cloves (whole or ground)
  • 1 – 2 teaspoons nutmeg
Water to fill to about 1 inch below the rim. (You could also use apple juice or cider!)

Place on stove and simmer on low. 

Soon your house will smell like happiness! 8-)

Tortilla Recipe Keto WOE

I got the recipe from one of the people that I subscribe to on YouTube. To see her channel:

Keto - Keeping It Simple

Are you looking for a low carb keto tortilla? Well here it is! LOW CARB KETO TORTILLA RECIPE - 4 INGREDIENT COCONUT FLOUR WRAPS

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup Coconut flour 6 large Eggs 1 1/4 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice) 3/4 tsp Sea salt

INSTRUCTIONS

In a large bowl, whisk all ingredients together until smooth. Let the batter sit for a minute or two to account for the natural thickening caused by coconut flour. The batter should be very runny right before cooking - it should pour easily (add more almond milk and eggs in *equal* proportions if needed to achieve this).
Heat a small skillet (about 8" diameter) over medium to medium-high heat and grease lightly (use oil of choice or an oil mister). Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet and immediately tilt in different directions to evenly distribute. You can fill in the sides with a little more batter if needed. Cook, covered with a lid, until the edges are golden and you see bubbles forming in the middle. The edges will curl inward when you lift the lid (about 1-2 minutes). Flip over, cover again, and cook until browned on the other side (1-2 more minutes). Repeat until the batter is used up.
