There is nothing that says “comfort food” like pot roast! Make it on Sunday morning in a crock pot and by the time it’s ready the whole house smells WONDERFUL!
Many people will try to “fancy” the recipe up. That’s OK – that’s their choice. But I think that a chuck roast combined with water and some root vegetables is really all you need.

I have to admit that I love, love, LOVE deviled eggs. And I hate, hate, HATE to make them!
I think it’s because it’s such a tedious process. Boil the eggs – cool them off … shell the eggs. Sigh … I always manage to mess up a few that now look pitted and diseased with big chunks out of them. Then I can’t stand it when the inside of the egg whites are wet, so I have to dry them out and I must pipe the yoke filling back in once it’s made – so there’s more mess that has to be cleaned up.
But they taste so darned good ………

I love coconut macaroons! Before I started doing the low-carb lifestyle, I would buy them from a nearby bakery everytime I saw them.

One of the things I miss most about the low-carb way of life is the occasional instance when I’m craving a sandwich. Now, I could create low carb bread, but there are other ways to “have my cake & eat it too.”
When I’m craving a BLT, I discovered that if I use lettuce leaves to roll up the other ingredients, the sliced tomato combined with the washed lettuce made everything too wet and drippy. Tasted good – but I felt like I needed a bib!

I love my low carb lifestyle. I really am not a sweet-eater. So this is probably why going low-carb is easier for me that other weight loss options.
Why is it then – that almost the minute I know I can’t have sweets, I start wanting them?
