Dinner: I had some leftovers from an organic chicken I roasted late last week. I found Laura Dolson's Easy Thai Coconut Curry Chicken and used jarred Thai red curry paste to make it. I served it on cauliflower "rice" that we ate while watching the Eagles win the playoff game. I used one of Laura's suggestions to use the steel S blade of my food processor for the cauliflower. I must have processed too long. The cooked cauliflower had the texture of cream of wheat. Not bad, just not like rice.
Dessert: I made Sugar-Free Chocolate Mousse To Die For from 500 Low-Carb Recipes by Dana Carpender (bless her). Dana claims this was the first low-carb dessert she came up with. It really is wonderful, chocolate-ful, rich and creamy. It calls for soft tofu as well as heavy cream and I'm guessing that for those who are trying to avoid fat as well as carbs, you could substitute sugar free whipped topping for the cream. Now I can't wait to try the Sugar-Free Vanilla Mousse to Die For!
For lunches this week:
- I made Low-Carb Clam Chowder - another one of Dana Carpender's from 500 Low-Carb Recipes. Dana's books are wonderful.
- Nancy's Meatloaf made with 2 pounds of 80% hamburger, some chopped onion, 2 eggs, and about 1/3 cup of Costco jarred pesto.
