Easy Breezy Strawberry Chicken THM- S, E or FP

I have been playing with my strawberry Sauce in several recipes incluing chocolates. YUM!

It goes well on so many things like cheesecake , biscuits, bread, muffins peanut butter wraps and chicken …and it is a FP!

So here we go easy breezy strawberry chicken just in time for Valentines Day. Here is the beauty on its own it is a fuel pull. This means you can pair it with your fancy cheesecake or chocolate and not end up with a crossover. Remember a crossover is NOT off plan, it is just not recommended while you are still trying to lose weight.
Anyway let’s keep this in fp mode for our first example add some cauli rice and FP Brownies with tummy tucking ice cream maybe even with a little extra strawberry syrup on top. :o)

For an E Set on a bed of brown rice and serve with copy cat apple tart

For an S Ad to mashed fauxtatoes and strawberry cheesecake

So here we go … on to the easy breezy recipe.

Take 2-3 boneless skinless chicken Breast Cut into chucnks( or suer easy version leave whole)

1-1/2 cups strawberry sauce

Cook in crockpot on high 4 hours or on low 8 hours serve as above for your version of E,S or FP.

Enjoy!

Have a wonderful Strawberry Filled Valentines!

Ingredients

I jar buttermilk

5 lbs large leg quarters whole or each cut in half

1 cup Coconut Flour ( replenish if needed)

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

1/4 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp cayenne( optional)

Spectrum Naturals Organic Shortening –for frying

METHOD

Marinate washed and cut chicken breast 24 hours in Buttermilk .

Pre heat oven to 350

Mix dry ingredients and add to shallow baking dish and toss chicken to coat .

Heat 1 1/2 inches of oil in Cast iron or Heavy bottomed frying pan. Add chciken to the oil 3 or 4 peices at a time. Working in batches , DO NOT OVERCROWD pan.Cover pan and fry 5-7 minutes turn the chicken over and cook an additonal 4-5 minutes.

Vanilla extract DIY

Home made Pure Vanilla Extract

Making your own Pure Vanilla extract.

Okay for starters let’s address the issue of alcohol.

Real vanilla contains Alcohol, yes even the very expensive organic variety. There really is not a way around it, but it really will be okay.

I am not asking you to drink the bourbon or the entire Bottle of Vanilla. ~grin

If you do drink Alcohol your bottle of Bourbon might need to be replenished more frequently, then those of us who do not.

I bake and use vanilla almost daily and my bottle of vanilla is still about 3/4 full after 6 months.(8 ozs)

Great investment for great vanilla and great food!

Okay so what we need to get rolling here…

Bottle or bottles ( You can make more than one at a time, if you order the vanilla beans below you can make 2 batches at once and still have bourbon left to make more as gifts or use in a cake recipe, if you like)
Vanilla Beans
Bourbon

Bottles here

Reagent Bottle, Amber Glass, Wide Mouth, 250ml / 8 Oz

Vanilla Beans Here

Delitaliana Grade A Premium Madagascar Gourmet Bourbon Vanilla Beans (Pack of 10)

The Best Bourbon Hands down for Vanilla Extract

Whiskey Acres Bourbon is USA Farmer owned and operated.

From Seed to Distillation American Farmed and Handcrafted

http://www.binnys.com/spirits/Whiskey_Acres_Bourbon_Farmcrafted_Whiskey_942842.html

Using 5 vanilla Beans Split each vanilla bean in half lengthwise.

Place the vanilla beans in a bottle. Cover them with 8 ounces bourbon, making sure they are completely submerged. Cover bottle and give it a good shake.Store the bottle of vanilla beans in a cool, dark place for 6 weeks shaking it from time to time. Taste the extract and let it infuse longer if you want a stronger flavor. I leave the pods in my bottle but you can remove them from the bottle when infusion is complete.

Enjoy your vanilla!

Valentines Strawberry chocolate swirl cheesecake THM-S

Strawberry / Chocolate Swirl Cheesecake

I have to say I Love cheesecake! My girls love cheesecake! We are like the Golden girls when it comes to cheesecake.( Only much younger 😉 and trim Healthy Mama Style lol)

This is by far my FAVORITE cheesecake EVER!!!

Chocolate turtle cheesecake comes close, but no cigar!

If you make it for valentines day. Please share your valentines Dinner picture! I would love to see how other Mamas celebrate Loving their food freedom! I mean really CHEESECAKE is on plan!!! How can you not embrace that!?

Ok .. sorry about the rabbit trail back to cheesecake…

Pie Crust

You can use this easy pie crust or one out of the book or other low carb crust of your choice.

Simple Low Carb Pie Crust

1 2/3 cups of Almond flour (or mix of 1 cup almond flour and 2/3 cup ground nuts into a meal)
Almond Flour Blanched
1/2 stick of butter melted ( or 3 tablespoons melted butter and 2 tablespoons Coconut Oil)
2 tablespoons Truvia
Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before filling.

Filling ingredients

2- 8 oz pkgs cream cheese( left out to room temperature)

3 eggs

1/2 cup sour cream

1 and 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract

or make your own here

7 tblsp Swerve or Truvia

Method

Beat cream cheese in mixer an ad in one egg at a time , followed by sour cream , swerve and vanilla.

*Reserve 2/3 cup and divide in half. This will be for the chocolate (1/3 cup of reserve) and strawberry (1/3 cup of reserve) swirl.

Pour cheese cake batter( not the reserved batter) into prepared crust.

Now add 1/3 of reserved batter into 1/2 cup of strawberry syrup.

Mix well and ad to the top of the cheesecake that is in the pie crust.

Next add 1/3 of reserved batter into warm batch skinny milk chocolate.

Drop by spoonful in random pattern on cheesecake( work quickly so it does not harden) Take a knife and run it through the chocolate in a swirl pattern to make the design.

You are almost done!!!

I know it is alot of work but just wait until you taste it!!!!

Bake at 350 degrees for 35- 45 minutes until firm and not jiggly. (knife inserted should come out clean,unless you place it in the chocolate lol!)

The chocolate will get dark but dont let it burn.

Let it cool on a wire rack and top with sweetened whip cream and strawberry drizzle.

You can use the remaining strawberry syrup to freeze or use in my crockpot strawberry Chicken Reccipe over caulirice as a FP!!!!
