The approach of summer brings with it the availability of many wonderful seasonal varieties of fruit. Even if you’re a low carb dieter, you shouldn’t pass up the bounty of the season. Once you’re past “induction”, as long as you know the carb count of various seasonal fruits and are clear on what the portion size is for each you can most likely indulge in the sweet goodness summer has to offer and get lots of nutritional bang for your buck, too!

Spring!! It’s finally here…time to shake off the doldrums of winter, and take advantage of the season’s fresh fruits, veggies, and lighter fare.

If you’ve got a holiday meal coming up that has to be special, low carb and family-friendly, I’ve got some ideas for you. This spring menu is elegant, low carb, and surprisingly simple to prepare. You do all your preparations while the lamb roasts, and then finish up the side dishes while it rests. The dessert is almost instant, and a light, refreshing finale to a great meal. I’ve included a shopping list to get you started, and recipes for using up any leftovers. Happy Spring!

Absolutely anyone - and by that, I mean YOU - can make traditional, "canned-off" jam or jelly. Even if you skip the canning part! 'Since it is now the season to do just that, here are step-by-step illustrated directions to help insure that you don't let late summer's abundance slip away - preserve it inexpensively for months to come, instead.

While there are many delicious foods we enjoy on a lowcarb woe, beans aren’t generally one of them. After a few weeks of lowcarbing, many people really begin missing some of their favorite carby comfort foods and start looking for substitutes. In general, the lowcarb world has done a pretty good job at “subbing” many carby items but old fashioned goodies like “Navy” Bean Soup and Cheesy Bean Dip have all but disappeared.

I’m here to tell you that you can. Can what? Have beans! You can have bean soup, chili, and yummy mexican style beans dripping with cheese. How? With Eden Foods, of course! 

Every experienced lowcarber is familiar with the classic “mock mashed potatoes” in the form of a cauliflower puree. I’ve tried several recipes myself but have never found one that I really loved. They always seem too runny no matter how hard I tried to get all the water out.

Well, for those willing to try, I’ve got a new technique which should lead to some of the best tasting and best textured “cauli mash” you’ve ever had.

I'd like to share my technique for a favorite dish, 7-Bone Roast with Fresh Herbed Gravy. This just happens to be the perfect entree to serve with the cauli-mash and we have it often in our house. It's a great way to spend a Sunday evening.
