THM FP Mac and cheese

FP Mac n CheeseMy picture depicts the spaghetti noodles, because that is all that I had left in the pantry. I would normally use the Penne or other shaped pasta noodles that more resemble macaroni.

I was trying to come up with a quick and easy lunch using my not naughty (or zero noodles) for the upcoming 8 week 20 lb challenge.

Here is what I came up with

Ingredients

1 pkg zero noodles
Miracle Noodle Shirataki Gluten Free Pasta, 6 bag Variety Pack, 44 ounces (Includes: 2 Shirataki Angel Hair, 2 Shirataki Rice and 2 Shirataki Fettuccini)

2 light laughing cow cheese wedges (or aldis brand happy farms)

2 tsp Parmesan cheese

1/8 cup unsweetened almond milk

1 tsp collagen powder
Great Lakes Gelatin Collagen Hydrolysate Beef, Kosher, 16 oz.
dash of mineral salt
Sherpa Pink Himalayan Salt, 2lbs Extra-Fine Grain
Optional spices ( I like a dash of cayenne and chipotle pepper on mine)

Method

Mix all ingredients in saucepan on medium heat stirring until the cheese melts , looking like butter.

Pour into your bowl and enjoy!

( I have added baby spinach to this and it is a delicious addition!)

THM Pear Butter

Yum

PEAR BUTTER

This is what happens when my FIL tells me he has pears that need to be picked. I make pear butter!

What is pear butter you ask?

Apple butter without the Apples! LOL

Taste just like homemade Apple butter

20160902_072508

You can make this recipe and can it to put into the pantry or put in jars and freeze.

I doubled the recipe and put in canning jars in a water bath

5 1/2 pounds peeled pears
1-1/2 cups gentle sweet
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves *Optional my family does not like cloves so I do not add them

DIRECTIONS

Place pears in slow cooker layering sugar between each layer.
Add rest of ingredients on top and pack them down as well as you can.
Cover and cook on high for 1 hour.
Reduce heat to low. Open and give it a stir. Keep covered and cook 8 hours or until thick and dark brown, stirring occasionally. (You can do this overnight and can in the morning).
Uncover and cook for the last hour on low.
If a smoother apple butter is desired, you may puree in blender or food mill.
Place in sterile jars with lids and process for 10 minutes in hot water bath or you can freeze.
