I make this every Friday, however I use reduced fat cream cheese and only 1 egg. It is DELISH!

Cilantro Lime Cauliflower "Rice"
Grated cauliflower makes a fantastic low-carb, grain-free stand in for rice when you need a little carb detox. You can season this any way you wish – here I brightened it up with lime and cilantro and served it with a broiled pork loin. It has a couscous-like texture, and is perfect with chicken, pork chops, steak or anything you would normally serve with rice.Does it taste like cauliflower? Yes, it does so if you're not a cauliflower fan (I love it!) this may not be for you. But if you're a fan like me, you'll love this side dish! And it's also vegetarian, vegan and Paleo-friendly.

Stuffed Pepper Soup
Bell peppers, chopped tomatoes and lean ground beef are simmered in broth with onions and garlic, then topped with brown rice – everything you love about stuffed peppers, in a soup!
I love soup weather – and the convenience of a making a big pot of soup that can serve as several meals. I first posted this recipe back in 2011 and it's been a huge hit with everyone, including both of my kids – they just loved it! I decided to make a pot this weekend and gave this a photo makeover.
This is a hearty bowl of soup that will fill you up and warm you on a chillynight. I guess you can call this a lazy stuffed pepper because it tastes just like a stuffed pepper without all the extra work. Topped with brown rice it's a satisfying meal. Heck, if you wanted you could even make this with ground turkey, and top it with shredded cheese. Have fun with this one! Stuffed Pepper Soup

Breakfast Egg White Spinach Enchilada Omelets
Enchiladas are one of my favorite all time favorite Mexican comfort foods. But enchiladas for breakfast you might ask? Well I say yes, why not! These are low-carb, gluten-free and grain-free by using egg whites as my "tortilla" – they turned out awesome! You can also have them for dinner – perfect for Meatless Mondays! These are basically glorified egg white omelets, stuffed with sauteed spinach and topped with enchilada sauce, avocado and cheese. Prep them ahead and bake when ready to serve, make them as hot or mild as you want. I used Frontera green chile enchilada sauce to speed this up, but I also think this would be awesome with homemade red enchilada sauce. If you follow a Paleo diet, simply leave the cheese off.

Ingredients:
- 3 cups egg whites or egg whites from 18 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons water
- salt and pepper, to taste
- cooking spray
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup scallions, chopped, plus more for garnish
- 1 medium ripe tomatoes, diced
- 2 tbsp cilantro, chopped

Directions: Pour 1/3 cup enchiladas sauce on the bottom of a 9 x 12 inch baking dish. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a medium bowl, whisk the egg whites, water, and a pinch salt and pepper. Lightly coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat the skillet over medium heat. Add 1/4 of the egg whites (about 1/2 cup), swirling to evenly cover the bottom of the pan. Coo****il set, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until set, about 1 more minute. Set aside on a dish and repeat with the remaining eggs until all your egg "tortillas" are cooked and set aside. Should make 6.
Heat oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add scallions; cook for 2 to 3 minutes until fragrant, but not brown. Add tomato and cilantro, season with salt to taste and cook 1 more minute, until soft. Stir in spinach and green chile, and cook for about 5 more minutes, adjust salt and pepper to taste. Remove from the heat, and mix in 1/2 cup of the Colby-Jack cheese; mix well.
Divide spinach between egg white "tortillas", about 1/3 cup each and roll, place each seam side down in baking dish. Top with remaining enchilada sauce and remaining cheese, cover with foil and bake until hot and the cheese is melted, about 20 to 25 minutes. Serve topped with diced avocado and scallions.

Tell your kids to close their eyes and they'll never know they're eating Brussels sprouts. Shhhhhh ;)
Gather
16 ounces of Brussels Sprouts, quartered 1/8 cup sliced shallots 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/8 teaspoon of salt 2 tablespoons toasted walnuts, chopped (or pecans) 1 tablespoon brown sugarStep by step
- Wash and quarter Brussels sprouts (peel off any yucky outside leaves).
- Peel and thinly slice shallot.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Toss in shallots and cook for 1-2 minutes, until tender.
- Add Brussels sprouts and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar to the pan, and cook for 15-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, but not too much because you want them to hold together and get a little caramelized. The longer you cook, the more caramelized they get. Caramelized = OMGood.
- In the last minute, toss in 2 tablespoons of toasted, chopped walnuts (or pecans) and stir.
- Serve. Enjoy. And feel the love for the Brussels sprouts.
