Coconut 'Sprite'
1/2 c coconut water
1/2 c Perrier
splash of lemon juice
Tastes like Sprite.I didn't add any sweetener.
This was SO good and really easy to throw together.
Crockpot Lasagna
1 lb. hamburger
1 jar pizza sauce (I used Muir Glen organic)
1 Tbsp garlic powder
2 Tbsp parsley
1 medium zucchini, shredded (about 8-10″ long)
3 cups fresh spinach
2 cups cottage cheese (I used ricotta)
3 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
Brown hamburger in skillet and drain. Wipe 6 quart crockpot with oil. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce in bottom of crockpot. Spread 1/2 of hamburger over the sauce. Stir remaining pizza sauce into hamburger, along with garlic powder and parsley. Layer half of the zucchini and spinach over hamburger. Top with 1/2 of the cottage cheese, spreading evenly. Sprinkle with 1 c. of Mozzarella cheese. Top with 1/2 of hamburger mixture, spreading evenly. Then top with veggies and the rest of the cottage cheese. Sprinkle with the rest of the mozzarella cheese and sprinkle Parmesan on top. Cook on low 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 hours. Let rest for 10 minutes. Cut into wedges.
Makes 8 servings.
I added additional spices (Italian seasoning, basil, etc) and sautéed onion with the hamburger. This recipe is pretty adaptable.
There is quite a bit of liquid when this has just finished, wringing out the shredded zucchini helps a little. I had to serve it in bowls, but it was really good and the juices pretty much solidify by the next day. (I wrung out the zucchini but there was still a lot of liquid, less so after cooling a bit. After it had cooled I dumped the liquid on the bottom before putting the rest in Tupperware for later. Leftovers were fantastic.)

Instructions

Whisk the lemon juice, sweetener, eggs and egg yolks together in a sauce pan.
Add the butter and turn the heat up to a low temperature stirring continuously.
Remember, there are eggs in this mixture! Too much heat will give you a lemony scramble.
Once all the butter has melted, turn the heat up to medium-high.
Continue to stir until it thickens up. When it is done is should be the consistency of conditioner.
Remove from heat and pour through a mesh strainer to remove any eggy bits.
Store in the fridge.

-80 pounds!
I keep gaining 20 to 25 of it back, I take off 5 pounds myself and then I do a round and lose 20 lbs. So I have done a total of 7 rounds. I am on my 8th round, taking the SAME 20 lbs off. ugh. But at least I don't gain 80 back!
I halved the following recipe and it made about 5 mini-pancakes.
4 eggs, room temperature
1 cup milk (raw cow’s or coconut both work)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 tablespoon honey or a pinch of Stevia
1/2 cup coconut flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
coconut oil or butter for frying
Directions
Preheat griddle over medium-low heat. In a small bowl beat eggs until frothy, about two minutes. Mix in milk, vanilla, and honey or Stevia.
In a medium-sized bowl combine coconut flour, baking soda, and sea salt and whisk together. Stir wet mixture into dry until coconut flour is incorporated.
Grease pan with butter or coconut oil. Ladle a few tablespoons of batter into pan for each pancake. Spread out slightly with the back of a spoon. The pancakes should be 2-3 inches in diameter and fairly thick. Cook for a few minutes on each side, until the tops dry out slightly and the bottoms start to brown. Flip and cook an additional 2-3 minutes.
Serve hot with butter, coconut oil, honey, syrup, or fruit.
