2 bags of boiling onions

1/2 C flour

1/2 C butter

2 1/2 C whole milk

16 oz sharp cheddar cheese, grated

Salt and pepper 

 Peel onions and put into boiling salted water. Cook until barely tender - drain.

Make a white sauce. Melt butter in saucepan & add flour. Whisk slowly. Cook for a minute & add milk. Simmer until thick. Turn the heat off & add cheese. Stir until melted. Add more milk if it's too thick after adding the cheese. 

Add onions. Stir gently. Pour into a baking dish. Bake 30 minutes at 350°.

Play Dough

4 C flour

2 C hot water

⅔ C salt

2 T oil

1 ½ T Cream of Tartar 

Food coloring

Mix all together in mixer until combined. 

Store in zip bag

Low Carb Granola

½ Cup Almond Flour

¼ Cup Chopped Almonds (either by hand or in food processor)

⅛ Cup Chopped Pecans (optional)

½ Cup Unsweetened Shredded Coconut or Unsweetened Coconut Chips (Chips are my fave!)

¼ Cup Oats

½ Scoop Swansons Vanilla Protein Powder

1 tsp. Vanilla

6 Packets Truvia

3 TBS Coconut Oil

2 TBS Melted Butter, Salted

2-3 tsp. Apple Cider Vinegar

1 TBS Unsweetened Almond Milk (omit this if you are not getting a crunchy consistency)

Instructions

Stir all dry ingredients together then stir in all wet ingredients.

Spread out on parchment paper on baking sheet.

Bake 300⁰ for 15 minutes, stir and mix around, then bake for another 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown. It should be pretty brown in color, this will tell you that it will be crunchy! Don't be afraid to let it get dark if you enjoy super crunchy granola, like me.

Let it cool.

Store in a ziplock bag.

Makes about 1½ to 2 Cups

I usually double this recipe!! But left it as written so you can try it in a smaller amount for your first time making it. Feel free to add more nuts, butter or coconut oil too if you're having trouble getting it crunchy.

Lemonade

1/4 tsp pure stevia

1/2 cup lemon juice

8 cups of water

Chocolate Zucchini Oatmeal

2 cups shredded zucchini 1/4 cup steel cut oats

Cook until oats are tender (No water needed-liquid comes from zucchini) 

Add:

2 T. cocoa powder

1/4 c. collagen

Stir well and let sit for a couple minutes. 

Yummy!

If you don’t have zucchini, use riced cauliflower. It’s also good with maple flavoring added.
