This may not sound like enough to satisfy you but trust me this is a whole meal and you won’t be hungry after eating this. This takes up the entire plate and is very filling.

Mike and I loved this so much that I made it two nights in a row. 
Mike of course did not eat the mushrooms but he did love the sauce part of it on his burger. I will absolutely be making this again.

I haven’t shared a recipe that needs grilled for a few days. Lets try this one. This is a very light turkey burger that Mike really loves. Be sure to spray the non-stick foil with vegetable spray prior to putting the turkey burgers on it or you will lose most of the burger to the foil.

This will be one of the easiest and quickest recipes that you will ever find. You get roast beef from the deli and have it shaved for this recipe. So tender and tasty. The picture is horrible but I took it before I had used how to use the macro setting on my camera.

Lets use the slow cooker again. This is a very easy and tasty recipe. There is no reason to eat bland meals when you are doing low carb. Most people have a misconception of what low carb consists of. Our meals aren’t boring and we do eat vegetables. We eat a lot of vegetables.
To be honest I am eating more vegetables now than I did before I decided to get healthy. I don’t count french fries and tater tots as veggies but yet I used to eat them all the time. It was no surprise when I became a Diabetic and developed high blood pressure. Sometimes we are our own worst enemy.

There are lots of pictures over on Facebook of my adventures yesterday while geocaching with my husband. We must have hiked over 4 miles total and climbed many hills but we had a wonderful time and I felt so much better after getting out in the fresh air. Come on over to Facebook with us. You know you want to.

I grew up eating Salmon Patties and the thought of giving them up would have made me very sad. Luckily for all of us we don’t have to.

For the salmon I like to make a dip using equal parts of 1 carb ketchup and mayonnaise to dip it. If you are using condiments on your salmon you need to be sure to add that into your carb total for the meal. It all adds up!
