What better way to enjoy a summer barbecue than with some really good fat?? Maybe some baby back ribs or brisket or pork belly sliders? And some slaw? But whatever your pleasure, there’s always room for the piquant fave — guacamole! Here’s our long-time family recipe. Holy Guacamole! Serves 4 INGREDIENTS ½ red onion, peeled…
One of the things I’ve missed most in giving up gluten and keeping low carbs is the joy of a good BLT in the summer when the Vidalia onions come on and the tomatoes are at their peak. But I can have all the tastes of those, well at least almost all of them, with…
Ever look at the ingredients in store-bought mayo? Almost all of them are some version of this ingredient list, taken from a major brand: water, soybean (and/or cottonseed or canola) oil, modified food starch (corn, potato), eggs, sugar, vinegar, salt, lemon juice, sorbic acid, and calcium disodium EDTA (used to protect quality), natural flavor, vitamin…
Just watched the 140th running of the Kentucky Derby, in California, sadly, and not at Churchill Downs. But I had my low carb mint julep–in a perfectly sweating silver julep cup–in hand. With a garden exploding in fresh mint (and, appropriately, red roses) it was hard to quit with just one… so we had another!…

Readers of this blog will know that I love cookbooks and that my overflowing collection of them has long hence exceeded the linear feet of shelves I have in my kitchen, which, while not inconsiderable, were finite. No matter — there’s always floor space! And thus, this Christmas brought a new one that I already…
One of Mike’s very favorite Christmas treats is a mincemeat pie. I like them, too, but having completely given up gluten, wheat, and most other grains about 18 months ago, I figured it was a holiday pleasure I would no longer get to enjoy. Not only from just the gluten avoidance standpoint, but the stone…

Summer picnics of burgers, dogs, pulled pork, barbecued chicken or tri-tip just don’t seem complete without a little slaw and potato salad. The slaw’s no problem, but for a dedicated low-carber, the potato salad is a no-go. Here’s a tasty version based on our low-carb buddy, cauliflower, that will fill that spot on the divided…
Having just returned from a short trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico my taste buds were still fondly remembering the experience of the culinary delights we enjoyed at Casa Velas there: Huevos a al Mexicana, fresh pico de gallo and tomatillo salsa, huachenanga con mojo de ajo, and hibiscus cosmos. They were even kind enough to…
