I have been getting tired of just plain no flavor pork rinds but I did not want al the extra sodium of the barb flavor. So I have been playing around in my kitchen all morning today. I made the cinn crispas recipe and was suprised how good they were.
So I started making a few differant kinds. I used the same melted butter principle as with the crispas but in one batch I did garlic and onion. One batch I used my chili spice mix (I make my own and its very low salt) and cayanne pepper. The flavors were great!!!! I am dieing to try garlic, onion and fresh grined parm cheese but I am out of the kind I like and its 55 miles to the store that carrys it.
I hate that low carb snacks cost so much and that we have no control over the salt and sugar alcs.
I regularly do the same thing with my cream cheese. I love adding things to it in my processor. Garlic, onion, dried chives, chilles, chocolate, and many other sugar free extracts I used to make suckers for the kids with.

I am sure I am not the first to try this but wanted to pass along my findings.

Hey now... I forgot about adding things in cream cheese. Thats a great idea, I have some yummy stuff to try.
Btw, I would love to know how you make sugar free suckers?? My son and I would love that.

I can't find pork rinds ANYWHERE.. where the heck can I find them in Canada??? Any suggestions?

I REALLY want to try the cinnamon thingies...

yum sounding!
Blessings!

The suckers are not sugar free sad to say.......... But then my son is 5 feet tall and 92lbs

Oh the cinnamon crispas are wonderful!

I like to experiment with the mock mashed potatoes (cauliflower) and everytime I make them I change them a bit and add garlic, parmesan or whatever is handy! Green onions, cream cheese and a bit of bacon crumbles really is tasty. And.....if you add a little Atkins bake mix and an egg you can fry them like potato pancakes!!

Tonight I am baking a cheesecake.....Mocha Marble Swirl....yummmmy!

ya for me the key to staying on track is to keep it fun. The potato pancake thing taste great too. I have 4 lbs of almond flour comin this week and I intend to do some baking!!!! First thing is going to be almond shortbreads

Okay, so where do you buy almond flour and also..........

SHARE YOUR RECIPES.......eh????

I got the flour from netrition. And when I get them right I will share the recipe. I have none for the shortbread yet but that never stops me.

Ian,

The almond shortbreads sound great! I haven't ordered anything online yet as far as food items. I guess I'll give it a try! Do they come with a safety seal so you don't have to worry about them being "tainted?"

The almond floour comes in a resealable bag I hope.
