These yummy stuffed peppers are a great alternative to my typical morning fare of eggs, avocado and tomato.

Looking to mix up my breakfast from my usual eggs, ½ avocado and ½ tomato, I turned to my dad’s stuffed pepper recipe, minus the rice. My low carb version of this dish included a red or green pepper, sausage and baby bella mushrooms. It’s easy to make and delicious.

It takes about 50 minutes to make (45 of those minutes is baking time). If you don’t have that much time in the morning, then I urge you to make it the day before. It tastes just as good on the second day. Read More

The Maple Silver Dollar Pancakes turned out awesome. I ended up doubling the size of my husband's pancakes. I had 4 pancakes, but mine were half the size of my hubby's.

Yesterday morning I whipped up a batch of healthy silver dollar pancakes, a recipe I found in George Stella’s Complete Low Carb Cookbook. Not only are these tasty, but very easy to make.

The recipe calls for almond flour and milled flax seed. So your batter is brown in color, but thanks to the maple extract, you won’t need syrup.
