LOW CARB OOPSIES
‘n Bydrae vir jul hflc resepte. ‘n Oopsie, vervang die idee van brood. Is nie so vullend soos brood nie, en eintlik nie eers broodagtig nie, maar flous die brein om te dink jy brood met jou spek en eiers eet, of dan die brood in ‘n hamburger vervang .

CAULIFLOWER SUSHI ROLLS – LOW CARB
I love sushi rolls and Korean kimbab rolls. In low carb white rice is off limits. I really missed eating these tasty seaweed delights dipped on soy sauce.
THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY LOW CARBING!

Drain the cauliflower well and mash until the texture of rice.
Making the fillings:

Slice cucumber in thin strips. Continue reading→

ZUCCHINI CRISPS – LOW CARB
Slice the zucchini in circles
Place them single layer on parchment paper on a baking tray
Base them with olive oil and flavoring
I used barbecue salt and cayenne pepper
It was too spicy for me, next time I will use paprika for the color
A sprinkle of garlic would be really nice too.

Put in preheated oven on 180ºC until brown and crisp. I turned off the oven and let them sit until they were cooled down. They were so good served with ranch dressing as a dip.
