Cauliflower Garlic Bread
















My name is Lindsey and I am a Dietetic Technician with Nutrition Support.  I would be happy to review your recipe today.
 
(Makes 12 servings)

Serving size is either 1 slice or one muffin

 
Each serving provides:
½ green
1 healthy fat
3 condiments
 
3 cups cauliflower rice
6 eggs
1 ¼ cups almond flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon thyme
1 tablespoon parsley


Preheat oven to 350. and line 9x5 loaf pan with parchment paper. I lightly sprayed the parchment paper with nonstick spray.
In a bowl microwave cauliflower for 3-4 minutes or till soft. Let cool. when its cooled transfer to a tea towel and wring out all the water.
In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites till stiff peaks form. set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, salt, egg yolks, melted butter, garlic and 1/4 of your whipped egg whites. Stir till well combined, then stir in microwaved cauliflower. Fold in remaining egg whites till all incorporated. Be gentle for the mixture should remain fluffy. Fold in thyme and parsley.

Transfer batter into the lined loaf pan and bake till the top is golden, approximately 45-50 minutes. let cool completely before slicing.


If you caught yourself being tempted to eat to much when making the loaf. Do it this way then it’s all divided out in 12. Freeze after completely cooled then you can pull on out when you want it. I spray my muffin tins with a little nonstick spray or you could use muffin liners and omit the spray. Cook time this way is about 18 minutes at 350. Just like you do with a cake insert a toothpick or knife in the middle to see if it comes out clean; then you know it’s done.

    this recipe looks wonderful. Doesn't it count as part of a lean as well with the eggs and almond flour? I would love to use this, but I want to make sure I have my lean and greens accounted for. Thank you for sharing this and all of your recipes!

Cottage cheese chips

Image
1 serving  Each serving provides  1/2 leaner 1 condiment  3/4 cup 2% cottage cheese  1/2 teaspoon everything but bagel seasoning  Preheat oven to 350. Mixed the 2 items together. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with nonstick spray. Put 1/2 teaspoon mounds on cookie sheet and bake for approximately 8 minutes. Always double check oven because every oven is different. It also depends on if you want them more cooked. Cook just till they start to brown around the edges. Take out of oven; cool just for a minute or so then gently pull off. They will get crispy. Approximately 24 chips but that depends on your size and how many you eat before you count!  As you can see some of mine got very brown experimenting with the correct time in oven.
